Client testing #214

Closed wikier closed 10 years ago

wikier commented 10 years ago

So far we only address server test. How do we plan to add client testing?

sspeiche commented 10 years ago

I don't think we plan to, other than manual testing. It was discussed at previous WG meetings. Currently we have a separate manifest that holds the test cases for client tests, it made no sense to stub these in TestNG/JUnit just to generate the RDF. So we just hand maintain it. If someone wants to provide some manual test results they can. We can then crank up a haml template for client tests and generate a WG report if needed. I'm not sure it is needed.

I do have some ideas on how to address client testing, though it still would be fairly manual due to the nature of it. We could defined a set of manual tests to perform against a known reference/test server. That server could track the requests and give a report at the end of the tests.
