Hi,
AFAICS org.apache.stanbol.commons.testing.http.RequestBuilder class only
makes use of "query parameters". In contenthub, to test the interfaces
which do not accept query parameters, T think we will
* write corresponding interfaces which accept query paramters (this
way, we can make use of RequestBuilder class through RequestExecutor)
* extend the related classes (Request, RequestBuilder etc.) to allow
posting other types of parameters (I'm not sure about this)
* make use of Jersey client to write our integration tests (I prefer
this one)
I wonder whether it creates any problem to use Jersey client to write
integration tests or not.
Regarding the unit tests, we need to instantiate the components
independent of an OSGi environment. To do this, I plan to implement the
constructors of each component, however they should be highly parametric
since they also depend on other components which should also be
instantiated through constructors. But, having a good design in the
parameters, it may be an opportunity to provide some functionalities of
Stanbol independent of OSGi (standalone jars). On the other hand, we
might make use of Pax-Exam testing framework, but afaik it starts an
independent OSGi environment (to load the dependencies) for each test
class. I am also not sure about the duration of tests with Pax-Exam.
I will appreciate your comments in these issues.
Best,
Anil.
