2016-09-09 Thread Dagny Taggart
Hi Johan and Patrik,

Thanks very much for your responses; and I'm just getting back to this.

Here's a cheeky request:
* Any chance you guys could Blog and put Links to GitHub for "Newbie
Reference Implementations" for putting together focused learning code
samples for these kinds of fundamentals, and with samples of using your
Testkits?
* Otherwise, could you get someone who is good at teaching Newbies; publish
a coherent learning progression project with Manning on the latest and
greatest Streams-Microservices-Architecture techniques?

That kind of insight on project-build-approach is hard to put together for
a Newbie from even top-notch API documentation.
And, I certainly did want to express my gratitude for the excellent
searchable Akka 2.4.8 Documentation!

THANK YOU so much!
D

Hi Dagny,

The Akka Streams tests for the built in stages could perhaps be useful to
see various strategies for testing. You can find those sources here:
https://github.com/akka/akka/tree/master/akka-stream-tests/src/test/scala/akka/stream/scaladsl

Yes, well; that link is rather generic, no?  ;0)

What I (and likely the 19 other Viewers of this post) are looking for is 
baseline-thorough coverage of test-cases to be aware of when testing Akka 
Actor and Streams operations.
I'm a newbie, and I learn best through running idiomatic code examples with 
test cases; hence my interest.

I didn't find that in the docs; nor am I finding it in any of the Blogs 
that I've been Googling around for.
That's why I'm asking for help with finding a current and reliable 
information source.

I found these specific docs do provide a scratch-the-surface start:
http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4.9/scala/stream/stream-testkit.html

However, I'm looking for Tutorial-level code covering things like:
- testing backpressure operation with Bounded memory settings when 
operating simple Graphs of Flows
- testing for connection drops, resend of duplicate message,  and Client 
retries and wait-timeouts
- testing for system exception-handling occurring in a mid-Flow Stage.

Would be darn grateful if you had any specific insights on where to find 
such learning resources; and were willing to share them with this Forum!

Thanks in advance for continuing to support a welcoming community for Akka 
Newbs!  You'll make the World a Better Place with Akka Everywhere!  ;0)
