[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-892?page=all ]
Andrew McIntyre updated DERBY-892: ---------------------------------- Attachment: derby-892_pre.diff Attached is a patch which updates derby_tests.policy if there is a {test}.policy in the functionTests/tests dir for this test. Included is a sample policy for derbynet/sysinfo.java. The patch is not ready to be committed, but I thought I would put it out there for others to review. However, I can't seem to get derbynet/sysinfo.java to fail (or pass) in any of the ways that I'm expecting at the moment and its driving me slightly insane. For instance, I can't get the test to fail as expected by removing the permissions noted in DERBY-622 (along with those added by Rick for 955), the circumstances mentioned in DERBY-1129, and the locale jar files output fails to appear even though I've granted the permissions noted in DERBY-622 which allowed the test to pass before. Maybe the jvm on Mac OS X is just not cooperating. I'll try it on Windows later. > add mechanism for specifying policy file for individual function tests > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-892 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-892 > Project: Derby > Type: Bug > Components: Test > Versions: 10.2.0.0 > Reporter: Myrna van Lunteren > Priority: Minor > Attachments: derby-892_pre.diff > > It would be nice to be able to specify a test-specific policy file. > This should get handled similar to existing properties, i.e. get specified in > a test_app.properties file (or, for a suite, in the suite.properties file). > The file should then be copied into the correct place. > Note, that the 'old' functionTests harness (as opposed to junit tests) > includes a check for a property called 'serverPolicyFile' (in > harness/jvm.java). The name is a left over from when the policy file was only > used for/by network server, and should be renamed - derbyTestPolicyFile, for > instance. It is not used anywhere at present, and not specific to network > server. It would be nice if this could be expanded, or, if not used, removed. > The default policy file used is the derby_tests.policy file under > functionTests/util. > Also, currently, the property can only be used with RunTest - for further > traction, it should probably get passed on through RunSuite/RunList. > Once confirmed to be working, the property should get documented in > <trunk>/java/testing/README.htm. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
