Hi,

As it is hard to write unit test for package instrument, I now have an idea: write down some documents for details of non-unit test cases for instrument. The detail of such test cases contain:
1. The test run on which platform, including special environment;
2. The test description;
3. How to run test (command line, etc.);
4. test result;
5. resource (or links) for tests, including c/java code for test if any.

I hope ensure the code quality in this way. Like unit test, such tests can be checked and re-run for regression, though un-automatically.
You mean these tests' result need to be checked manually? I think it is not acceptable. IIUC, the issue here is some instrument agent needs to be specified in JVM args, so these tests are somthing that need special startup configuration, we can find a way to handle these tests, say, specify the configuration in instrument's build.xml, we can even fork a new JVM process per these tests, (Not sure if TestNG has any special support for this?).

And I'll put them in Harmony-wiki[1], and any test-description is welcome!. (Geir, I've found an advancement of wiki :) )

    Any suggestions?  :)

However, if you had pointed out

I'd have agreed w/o having the opportunity to make fun of the Wiki.

So I agree :)
