#771: Improve test case coverage for trac-admin command
--------------------------+-----------------------
Reporter: rjollos | Owner: nobody
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: Release 9

--------------------------+-----------------------
This ticket will explore how we can improve test coverage to avoid defects
like those in #756 and #757.
After tests were added in r1572372, only one failure is seen, with the
method that is run on the global environment: `test_product_help_ok`. The
tests in `test_product_help_version` and `test_product_help_version_add`
should have failed if they were run against a global environment, but
don't fail because they are run directly against a product environment.
This is not realistic, because when `trac-admin` is called, it is called
on a global environment and the command is dispatched to the product
environment (this may be a poor way to describe what is actually
happening, and I'll try to refine the description as I investigate
further).
The test in r1572374 has the same issue. It should fail if executed
against the global environment, but it doesn't fail since it's execute
against the product environment.
Action items are:
1. In trac:#11502, test case coverage will be improved in the Trac core.
The test methods `test_product_help_version` and
`test_product_help_version_add` added in r1572372 will be back-ported.
1. Refactoring in trac:#11500 needs to be integrated.
1. Modify test harness so that tests are executed in the global
environment. An initial patch is attached: attachment:t771-r1572373.diff.
The patch will likely be refined, after trac:#11500 and trac:#11502 are
integrated in Bloodhound.
