testing

I have a client who has implemented employee training within Drupal and has had much success in showing who has accessed what pages... Now he has asked me to develop an automated testing process. I envision building a tool that will allow him to create tests for each class within a Course. Is there a recommended way using modules that will allow me to create an environment where he can create on-line tests per class? The student would take these tests online and he wants to give them immediate feedback on-line after it is submitted.

Thanks for your ideas!

Hola,

Me olvidé de mencionarlo hasta ahora que lo estoy preparando, pero esta tarde tenemos la reunión bi-mensual de PHP Perú en las oficinas de Dokeos, para los que tienen demasiado energía. Estaremos creando pruebas para el lenguaje PHP mismo (versión 5.3) y estaré explicando lo que es phing y como usarlo.

Hi all,

I've been working on a patch to the CCK multigroup module that I feel it's almost there. It needs as much testing as possible however. If you think you may need this feature, then please help testing, so maybe it can be included in the next release of CCK2, which I don't know because it depends on the CCK maintainers, but getting this tested, will help.

Several core tests (contact, comment, poll) have a need to be to adjust the permissions for anonymous users. We can easily adjust permissions for users by calling drupalCreateUser() with different permissions, but we don't have an easy way to do the same thing for anonymous users. As of now, the tests have to add an admin user with the permission 'administer user permissions' and use drupalPost() to adjust the admin/user/permissions page. This implementation is ugly and wasting effort by duplication.

Since we provide the drupalCreateUser() and drupalCreateRole() methods in DrupalWebTestCase, I proposed adding a drupalSetPermissions() that could be easily reused throughout core tests and would be very handy for a lot of contrib module tests. But it needs more reviews.

I am writing a test for one of my contrib modules that has a feature that is enabled when another contrib module (we'll call it OtherModule) is enabled. I want other people other than myself to be able to run the entire test suite, but what if they didn't have OtherModule installed or even present in their Drupal installation? The test is going to fail spectacularly in that case. So here's what I came up with for my module:

I've created a test case that tests the advanced search form. There are currently no other tests that do this. The patch needs review. Please jump in and give it some attention: http://drupal.org/node/308233

First, for those that don't want to read the full post, here's the "30-second elevator speech":
This post to to discuss using Seleinum with Drupal. Specifically using Maven to run the selenium tests and writing the Selenium tests in Java.
The example code be downloaded from the Workhabit Inc. public repository here: https://svn.workhabit.com/svn/public/drupal/selenium/trunk
One must have the following installed to run:
1. Firefox
2. Java 1.5+
3. Maven
All 3 are easy to install and aquire. Once you download the code from the repository, you can just navigate to the directory and run:
