Project Goal

The goal of this project is to deliver an automated functional testing framework for the OFBiz. This framework assist developers to add/remove/run test cases which simulate real users' behaviors.

Design and Implementation

The system basically consists of five basic components, they are :

A page is a collection of any number of those five components:

A testcase is constructed by two portions: the expected outcome and scripts of action. The expected outcome can be deduced by comparison of page's title, appearance of one pop up, content of an error message, etc. The latter specifies sequences of action: input a string into one text field, then tick a box, select a radio button, click a button, etc.

Documentation

• Notes

  • 07/05/2012 - 11/05/2012:
    • download Jenkins and get familiar with it.
    • how to ask Jenkins to start one OFBIZ instance
    • install the Gradle plug-in for Jenkins
    • write a build.gradle file to grasp all dependencies.
    • write one test case(test to pass) of log-in page
    • setup project repository using Github
    • Difficulties:
      1. Configure jenkin to start on a different port compared to that of the OFBiz
      2. Connect local repository and remote repository
  • 14/05/2012 - 15/05/2012:
    • Refine Gradle build script
    • Jar the project
    • Configure jenkin to start an instance of OFBiz and run the test via the jar
