Re: about test suite in KwareSoft

Kyuwon,

 

   Thank you for raising this issue regarding <VerifyContent> evaluation of message(s) returned by the <Filter> operation.  My interpretation for writing the XPath expression as you described was that I was verifying that a <mime:Message> was found in the resulting NodeList whose <soap:Envelope> has  a namespace-uri of http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'

 

    As I understand your interpretation, you are saying that the <mime:Message> has already been "found" by the <Filter>, therefore why not evaluate the <soap:Envelope> of that message ( or the first message that matches this XPath expression ), rather than appearing to again filter <mime:Message>s.

 

   I believe that we are both "correct" in that both XPath expressions will yield a "true" result if a message is found in the filtered NodeLIst of messages, where the <soap:Envelope> namespace matches that which we specify.

 

   Is this just a case of semantics?  I believe that it is.  If so, perhaps the IIC group can decide which is a better semantic approach to verifying results.. since I use this approach in the majority of Test Cases in this Executable Test Suite.  It would be fairly easy to modify the Executable Test Suite to have a more specific XPath expression.

 

   Comments?

 

Mike

Subject: about test suite in KwareSoft

Hello..

 

I am testing TestSuite.

 

I find some mistakes, for example, "mime:Container -> mime:MessageContainer".

 

And, in below example...

 

<ebTest:GetMessage ebTest:description="Correlate returned message">

    <ebTest:Filter>/TEST:MessageStore/mime:Message[mime:MessageContainer[1]/soap:Envelope/soap:Header/eb:MessageHeader[eb:Action='Mute' and eb:CPAId='mshc_Basic' and eb:ConversationId=$ConversationId and eb:MessageData/eb:RefToMessageId=$RefToMessageId]]</ebTest:Filter>

     <ebTest:TestAssertion ebTest:description="Verify that SOAP envelope element is properly namespace qualified">

      <ebTest:VerifyContent>/mime:Message[mime:MessageContainer[1]/soap:Envelope[namespace-uri()='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/']]</ebTest:VerifyContent>

 </ebTest:TestAssertion>

</ebTest:GetMessage>

 

Because "mime:Message" is found by Filter, "/mime:Message[mime:MessageContainer[1]~]]" is replaced by "mime:MessageContainer[1][~]" in VerifyContent.

 

How do you think?

 

Regards,

Kyuwon..
