[dna-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (DNA-352) Version Tests in SerializationTest Fail Due to TCK Bug

Version Tests in SerializationTest Fail Due to TCK Bug ------------------------------------------------------ Key: DNA-352 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-352 Project: DNA Issue Type: Bug Components: JCR, Testing Affects Versions: 0.3 Reporter: Brian Carothers Priority: Minor Attachments: DNA-352.patch The JackRabbit TCK that DNA currently uses to help gauge JCR compliance contains several tests (e.g., SerializationTest) that test whether the repository supports versioning by calling canAddMixin("mix:versionable") on a node instead of checking Repository.getDescriptor(Repository.OPTION_VERSIONING_SUPPORTED). These tests expect the canAddMixin call to return false if the repository does not support versioning. However, in section 4.11 of the 1.0.1 specification, the behavior of repositories that do not support versioning is defined differently: "A node is versionable if and only if it has been assigned the mixin type mix:versionable, otherwise it is nonversionable. Repositories that do not support versioning will simply not provide this mixin type, whereas repositories that do support versioning must provide it." Based on this, DNA needs to disable the built-in mix:versionable type. It probably makes sense to disable nt:versionHistory, nt:version, etc. as well. However, to make the tests pass, canAddMixin will need to be changed to return false when given "mix:versionable" as an argument.
