Subject: Re: [ebxml-iic] Test Framework Question
Thanks Mike.
I was reading Section 5-7 (TR, TP, and TC) of
version 1 dated May 03. I think here is why I was confused.
Section 5 says that TR is test harness independent.
Section 6 says "A Test Case is the translation of a TR (or a part of a TR), in
an executable form, for a particular Test Harness".
Due to my problem context, I might have too
concrete interpretation to the "Test Harness". I interpreted it as perhaps
different languages, for example, I may be writing the TC in Java or in C++.
That's why I was asking how the TD knows which TC to use b/c it does say which
Test Harness it is associated with (maybe that's the configurationGroup
element).
It seems like TC in IIC is more abstract b/c it is
descriptively defined using XML and then Test Harness implemented in whatever
languages reads this XML to execute the test. In my problem context, a TC is a
rule written in either schematron or another rule script language. I think I
understand better now.
I think I understand better now.
One more question though, why do you have Test
Suite reference TCs instead of TRs. In my mind, TS is a functional grouping of
tests, hence I should point to TRs. On the other hand, I see TP as
arbitrary grouping of tests, so it could point to TCs. I think I am missing a
lot things b/c IIC's TRs and TCs are much more complicated.
Thank you,
Serm
