Testing and Quality Assurance

Hello,

I am developing module which provides integration with another software. I am using different "target" in settings.php to access DB for this third-party application.

Now if I write test, I need to have this target defined in test case too. Right now I am defining it manually via Database::addConnectionInfo in setUp() method, but this is not portable..

Any ideas how to do such type of testing?

Regards,
Pavel

I want to make sure that everybody in these groups knows about the fantastic simpletest + selenium integration work that ygerasimov has been doing. I just tested out his Selenium module (7.x) and it worked fine for me.

Here's what I did:

1. Install Selenium module and start Selenium Server as described in the INSTALL.txt.
2. Installed the Selenium Test Example sandbox for sample tests.

We are currently seeking students interested in learning about our AWS testing implementations. The primary objective is to create a curriculum that will help educate others understand the methods utilized by the Drupal infrastructure to support it's automated testing in the Amazon cloud. This is a prime opportunity for you to become involved in Drupal and help create positive learning materials to help others understand the benefits of Amazon cloud services as they apply to Drupal.

Can anyone recommend a FOSS test case management tool? We're looking for something simple to organize our test suites and cases.

Reporting and integration with bugtracking (Mantis) would be awesome.

I've looked around and see there are a lot of options (http://www.opensourcetesting.org/testmgt.php), but hoping for some insight and feedback on particular tools. Thanks!

Shameless plug, I just wrote up a beginner's guide to getting Hudson up and running for continuous integration. Huge shout out to Steve Merrill. Couldn't have figured any of this out without following his work.

Love to get some feedback. Please consider retweeting if helpful:

Excited to spread the word about continuous integration!!

Sorry if someone thinks I'm cross-posting too much, but I just wanted to get opinions from everyone who might have a stake in this :)

Alright, so I'm trying to think how I can do my part for this little community, and since I've got some degree of proficiency with Adobe Premiere and After Effects, I thought I might be able to put together a little video to explain exactly what Drupal is. I'm envisioning something with a catchy beat, and graphic/text elements -- no voice-overs. I'm in the really early stages of thinking about this, but I'm considering this picture to be my biggest influence right now as to the feel of the presentation:

(I really like the tetris-like style of it, and think that's something to work with!)

I'm using SimpleTest to test my custom CCK content type. Here is an example:

$this->drupalPost('node/1/edit', array('field_comp_addmargin[0][value]' => 0),'Save');

It actually saves the value, but for some reason it doesn't go through standard drupal handlers.. For example after I submit node_edit form it should fire nodeapi update event. In my case it not happens for some reason and because of that my custom piece of code which should be executed on nodeapi update never gets executed..

Motivation:
I'm going to grow quality of products we get in company I working in.
I'm going to make ability to show bugs free product when client what. (functionality that marked "done" realy 100% done)
I'm going to make code clear and developement process managing.
I'm going to make regressive testing cheap.
I'm going to remove trivial round things from my live.

CI can help us.
