Hey, How unit indicates which tables (part of schema) should be created for particular test? They don't - all tables are made available to the tests. Also, I guess that for many tests empty schema is not enough, one probably should provide some pre-defined values for table row fields. @group Database is not enough for that. This is possible, in which case your particular test first needs to populate the db. Be sure to use the proper abstraction layers for this - I've seen people write tests that break encapsulation badly and then break as soon as you change a bit around somewhere.

[SMW-devel] unit tests and acceptance tests of SMW+SF+SRF+...
Hi everyone! Two questions I have: 1. Can you share your experience about testing SMW-based systems? For example now we're upgrading all the versions of MediaWiki, SMW and other extensions and we're getting very alarmed how to ensure if the result works without errors. Intuitively for manual testing we need the set of pages, properties and forms that uses all features of SMW-extensions. Does anybody have such a test case? Or can we use another testing strategy? 2. We want to use the latest wmf version of MediaWiki as the base platform of our wiki. Is this a wise idea in your opinion or should we use the stable version?

Hey, We want to use the latest wmf version of MediaWiki as the base platform of our wiki. Is this a wise idea in your opinion or should we use the stable version? These versions of MediaWiki tend to be pretty stable on themselves. However, if you use them, you might end up running into compatibility issues with the latest release of SMW. To avoid that, you could run the latest code of SMW, which most of the time works fine with these WMF MW versions, but running the latest SMW code (ie git master) can lead to stability issues. I'm running the latest of both, and so is translatewiki.net. It works as long as occasional breakage (which is usually fixed pretty quickly) is acceptable to you.
