Test Framework harmonization across all languages
-------------------------------------------------
Key: THRIFT-847
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-847
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Library (C#), Library (C++), Library (Cocoa), Library
(Erlang), Library (Haskell), Library (Java), Library (JavaScript), Library
(OCaml), Library (Perl), Library (PHP), Library (Python), Library (Ruby), Test
Suite
Affects Versions: 0.3, 0.2, 0.1
Reporter: Roger Meier
Fix For: 0.4
Today each Language supported by Thrift, have its own unit test, all are using
the same Thrift IDL's located at the test directory. But the behavior of these
tests seems to be different from language to language... this makes it
difficult to do tests and bug fixing across different Languages. e.g.
* C++ Test and JavaScript Test Server written in Java have different responses
for the same services
* C# and Java Test Server have different responses for testException as C++
I propose the following steps:
* identify the language with the reference implementation (well defined return
values for all test cases)
* update the ThriftTest.thrift with details about the required return values
that have to be implemented
* update test implementations and move language tests into their appropriate
library directory (THRIFT-35)
* a public test server that supports multiple protocols and transports could be
another enhancement for testing purposes
I'm ready to help preparing patches, just tell me what you need!
