Hi P.K.,
Currently, DSpace only really has Unit / Integration tests for the main
Java API layers, specifically these two modules/JARs:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/master/dspace-api (creates
dspace-api.jar)
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/master/dspace-services (creates
dspace-services.jar)
Unfortunately, we do not have Unit / Integration tests for the user
interfaces (XMLUI or JSPUI). Both of these interfaces are now quite
old, and the plan is to replace them in the near future with a new User
Interface (see RoadMap [1] and UI Prototype Challenge [2]). My goal
would be that the new User Interface *will* have an automated testing
framework. Obviously, that's the recommended route these days.
As for running the tests, we do use Travis CI to run our automated
Unit/Integration tests for the API layer. Our Travis config can be
found in the codebase at:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/.travis.yml
The Travis config provides all the information you should need on how to
trigger running the tests. The documentation for the testing framework
is a bit outdated, but it is still based on the notes at
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Testing (We still use
all the technologies mentioned there, though the versions have been
updated as has the code as well)
If you have further questions, feel free to ask them on this list, and
we'll try to get them answered!
Tim

Assuming someone wants to fork and proceed with heavy DSpace
customization, what is the recommended testing strategy?
i.e. which of the tests should be kept in a CI environment like
travis? (apart from our own custom tests we may set up)
(note: 99% of the customization will most likely take place on jspui)
Is there any documentation on dspace's (Unit/Integration) tests?
Thx,
P.K.
