RE: [equinox-dev] Equinox tests in OSGI_4_3_RI branch

["Kirchev, Lazar" <l.kirchev@xxxxxxx>]

The composite tests should be ported because of the changes in the API. However, there are also some changes in classes, which are not part of the framework API, but still there are tests for them. These tests should be modified too, in order to be able to run against the new version of the framework. Probably one more bug will be needed, in which to submit patches for them. I may open it, so we can submit patches there, as well as in the one you opened for the composites.

 

Regards,

Lazar

Yes, porting of the tests are planned for 3.7. I have not started a branch of the tests, but I can and would be glad for you to provide patches to port the tests. Only the composite tests should need to be ported since that is the only API that has changed between the branch and what is in HEAD. My plan was to evaluate the tests for composites and see if there is anything in there that is not already tested by the OSGi CT for composites. The OSGi CT for composites is pretty good I think (well I can't really say because I wrote them ;-) ). My hope is that all is covered by the CT (and likely more) such that we could get rid of the composite tests in Equinox or reduce it to a small set of smoke tests to ensure things are not broken from build to build.

I opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=312784 to track this. I will create a branch for the tests.

Hello,
In the OSGI_4_3_RI branch equinox tests are transferred as they are in the HEAD branch. Due to the changes in the framework, some of the tests do not compile – there are modified constructors of non-API classes, ambiguous methods, etc.
I would like to ask is the porting of the tests already planned, and if yes – is there any timeframe for finishing it? Since we will be working on the new code, we are interested in the tests being fixed and being ready to run against the new framework. If the porting of the tests has not already been planned, we may participate in it with providing patches to fix the tests.
Kind regards,
Lazar Kirchev_______________________________________________
