How to run Castor XML's CTF suite


Overview
Intended Audience
Prerequisites
Steps

Overview

Castor XML has a JUnit test suite that is used to perform various functional and regression tests, to give developers/committers some reassurance when changing the codebase.

Intended Audience

Anyone who wants to run the CTF test suite. This document outlines the basic steps to get people unfamiliar with this area started.

Our example describes the use of command-line tools for a UNIX system.

Prerequisites

Anybody wishing to run the CTF test suite should have access to the source code of Castor. This can be obtained in one of the following ways:

-Download the sources distribution from the download page
-download the latest snapshot from SVN from (see links on the bottom left corner): here
-Check out the latest code from SVN into your prefered developement environment. For instructions on this task, take a look here

Note:The CTF currently requires the Sun JDK (or SDK) to execute, although it may be possible to execute fine with GNU gcj or with JRockit. The CTF will not work if you are using only a JRE. This is because the CTF uses the Sun Java compiler API to compile code as needed for Source Generator and Marshaling Framework tests. The CTF code is written to allow easy extension for additional compiler frameworks, so if you use a compiler or runtime that is not supported, you should be able to easily add support for a new framework. If you want to do this, contact Castor committors for assistance and direction and they'll set you on the right course.

Steps

Once you have obtained the Castor sources in one of the ways highlighted above, here is how to proceed. In general, more information about how to execute the CTF test suite can be found here.

From a command line (e.g a shell), please execute the following commands to run the Castor XML master test suite (default suite).

> cd <castor-root>
> mvn install
> cd <castor-root>/xmlctf
> mvn test

To execute just a subset of the master test suite, please change this to:

> cd <castor-root>
> mvn install
> cd <castor-root>/xmlctf
> mvn test
