[jboss-as7-dev] Test Suite Changes

Thu Nov 3 10:45:36 EDT 2011

I still contend that it should be able to do this differently. 

Simple mvn install (-DallTest=true) for developers.

Then qe should be able to use separate qe profiles/the antrun plugin/whatever with some trickery in the scripts qe uses to do your stuff. I have a few ideas which I can try out if I have some spare cycles and I am sure Paul Gier could help.

So, the changes to the test suite were based on requirements.  The issues as I see it is that there is no
concensus (making everyone happy) which, in turn, has caused additional changes to the initial pull request[s].

It was anticipated in the requirements discussions, though, that the integration tests would be used for test purposes
other than during a build of AS7.

Thomas, have you looked at the requirements document links mentioned below?  

As far as bugs, fair enough.  They're being addressed as they are uncovered.  JIRAs should be filed.

Yes, I would also like to see a document that describes how the 
testsuite is (more importantly should be) organised and how to execute 
individual test sections. The document should start with a list of 
requirements.

The argument of "integration-tests.sh makes it easier" is not valid 
IMHO. It is a diversion of an established standard and quite the 
contrary from "makes it easier" IMHO. In short, start with requirements 
and show whether and how they are met and where work still needs to be 
done.

Refactoring the test suite into a clean structure, such that standard 
mvn calls can be used to execute what we need would be the preferred 
solution IMHO.
