[ASSEMBLY 205] TEST_ASM_12001 has empty composite name - Propose CNA

[Mike Edwards <mike_edwards@uk.ibm.com>]

Folks,

Assembly issue 205 (http://www.osoa.org/jira/browse/ASSEMBLY-205
) argues that
testcase ASM_12001 is invalid since
the TestConfiguration contains a set of Contributions to use, but
does not supply the name of any Composite
to run.

My view is that the testcase is valid
and does not need to be changed.  Hence we should close this issue
with no action.

Here is the configuration in the test
client:

         
  config.testName
                =
this.getClass().getSimpleName().substring(0,
9);
         
  config.input
                 
      = "request";
         
  config.output[0]
                 
      = config.testName
+ " "
+ config.input
+ " service1
operation1 invoked" ;
         
  //
null composite supplied - the name of the composite to run comes from the
sca-contribution.xml
         
  config.composite
                =
null;
         
  config.testServiceName
        = "TestClient";
  
         
  config.contributionNames
       = new
String[] { "ASM_12001",
"General",
"General"
+ _Lang
};

The relevant things are:

a) the list of contribution names assigned
to config.contributionNames
b) the value of config.composite, which
is null

In the design of all the testcases,
the configuration has one or more Contributions, which are intended to
contain the artifacts to use, plus
the name of a Composite to run.  It
is expected that the Composite exists somewhere in the supplied Contributions.

In this testcase, one of the contributions
- ASM_12001 - has an SCA contribution which has a contribution.xml file
as follows:

<contribution

        xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200912"
        xmlns:test="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/scatests/200903">


        <deployable
composite="test:TEST_ASM_12001"/>
        <import
namespace="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/scatests/200903"/>
 <!-- Contributions
namespace -->
        <import
namespace="http://test.sca.oasisopen.org/"/>
                 
               
               <!--
WSDL namespace -->
        
</contribution>

Note the presence of the <deployable/>
element, referencing a specific Composite.

The design of this test is intended
to check that the SCA runtime will deploy the composite referenced by the
<deployable/> element.
Either this test is correct as written,
or the argument must be made that an SCA runtime does not have to do anything
with the <deployable/> element.
If that is the case, then the whole
testcase should be removed as the function is optional.
