Re: [Dev] [C5][OSGI-Tests] ExamReactorStrategy

Hi Lakshman,

In kernel OSGi tests, each test class has its own configurations. So the
test distribution will be different from class to class even though the
base distribution is same. So we have to start test distribution for each
and every class since we can not change the configurations at the runtime.
If we use PerSuite strategy, then the distribution will start only once and
the configuration will be same for all the classes.

For example, test[1] and [2] you can see that there are different set of
test artifacts to be installed in order to test for two different scenarios.

And also, if the test distribution is same for two test classes, then there
is no point of having two separate classes and instead of that, all the
methods can be written inside one single test class.

[Dev] [C5][OSGI-Tests] ExamReactorStrategy

[Lakshman Udayakantha]

Hi,

We have used PerClass ExamReactorStrategy as the default strategy. This
means test distribution will start for every class in the test suite. Is
there any particular reason to select that strategy? This will increase the
build time when the test class space grows. So we can go with PerSuite as
the default strategy to reduce the build time. WDYT?

Thanks,
Lakshman.
