As you may noticed, we had few changes in the testing area: - you can run the test from the web interface - no special configuration - you just install the test.war and admin.war, no more command line tweeking. - the test .wars are built independently - we can add more tests for the current milestone/release We also did some tests with existing webapps ( I tested jetspeed, slide, I know other had run other apps ). But - we want to make sure those tests are run on multiple platforms/configurations, and we can easily test for regressions. I'm proposing that for M2 we start including the .war for the apps we test, and add some "black-box" test cases. ( i.e. in test-tomcat.xml we add test cases for the existing applications - making sure they work fine under tomcat ) We should also encourage people reporting bugs to contribute small .war files that can reproduce the bug ( or additions to /test ). More applications we test, more confidence we can have in the product. Even if automating some tests is difficult, at least having a small "manual test scenario" and making easy to run it ( by providing a common place for all tested applications that people just have to deploy ) will greatly enhance tc3.3 testing. -- Costin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
