Re: [gatein-dev] Selenium tests

selenium-tests-other use a testing framework put together by Red Hat's EPP QE team. Using an API directly gives a better control to a test writer, and the tests themselves can be finetuned with wait times and such to be more robust in the face of occasional congestion ... so they don't needlessly fail due to occasional long response times, producing a false negative on the test. It's not very hard to use browser debug tools (i.e. Firebug, or integrated DOM inspector/console) to target specific elements by id, or a more logical parent-element-relative xpath queries that make the tests much more resilient to changes in HTML. One gripe with selenium-snifftests is also that they are organized by using tremendously long file names / paths, which causes problems for windows users. (This is not really due to the technology, but due to choice of naming and organizing tests). On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 9:06 AM, Nguyen Anh Kien <kienna(a)exoplatform.com&gt;wrote:
