Hi Folks, I just went through a demo of the new sample automation framework developed by Amila for his GSoC project. Have to admit that it's a brilliant piece of work. There is lot of room for improvement but the idea and the implementation is pretty good for a first cut version. He has automated a lot of samples and adding new samples to the framework is easy. I've instructed him to carry out the following action items in the next few days before we start off the GSoC final evaluations:
1. Submit all the code as patches to the JIRA (He has already submitted some patches during the mid term evaluations) 2. Write up some wiki pages explaining how to use and extend the framework Soon I'll start checking in this work to the Synapse trunk. I think the best approach is to introduce a top level module named "integration" and add all the automated samples (implemented as test cases) under that. That way our samples become a suite of integration tests for Synapse and they will be included in the nightly builds as well. Appreciate your thoughts on this. Here are some points that we can improve in the test framework: 1. Make it into a separate binary distro so we can download it and run against a given Synapse instance 2. Improved logging and reporting 3.
