[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBTM-390) add ability to run DTF tests locally without DTF server

[Jonathan Halliday (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBTM-390?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12457164#action_12457164 ] 

Jonathan Halliday commented on JBTM-390:
----------------------------------------

All tests can now be run locally, although this depends on having jdbc drivers and db accounts available. That poses a problem for runs on hudson. best bet is probably to put the jdbc drivers in an internal svn repo (they can be in the main repo as we can't distrib 3rd party commercial drivers) and have hudson check them out prior to the build. Or use versions from the qa filessytem on hudson machines, although that would rule out windows boxes.  Concurrency of tests and use of different machines is also still an issue - some kind of mechanism that allows different machines to use the same account without confilicting would help. Currently the a/c name is used in table names - perhaps use the machine name also/instead, so that multiple machines can have the same a/c.

> JBossTS has a substantial investment in DTF tests. However, running these is a complex process, involving building and deploying to a pre-configured DTF instance or installing the DTF locally on the developer's workstation, including tomcat, mysql etc.
> Now the DTF is open source and the tests are likewise in the public repository, it would be nice for developers to be able to run them with less hassle, much like unit tests.
> This issue is tightly integrated with DTF-4, which covers provision of the necessary functionality in DTF.
