Qt Testing Requirements
- Test for code coverage.
- Test GUI's interaction with server manager.
- Test GUI itself (e.g. button click leads to correct action & results) that's insensitive to layout.
- Easy to create test cases.
- Community's ability to test and contribute to testing.
- Integration with vtk's and paraview's testing framework (meaning leverage testing abilities already existent such as image comparisons and such)
- Drive demos, using the same framework.
Possible Solutions:
- Squish from Frog Logic
- $3,000 per seat for license for complete application
- $400 for license to just run tests
- Community contribution limited because of license cost
- Possible Difficulty integrating with VTK and Paraview testing framework
- Application to be tested started as child process and so dynamic analysis will be difficult
- KD Executor
- Similar in cost and limitation to Squish
- KUnitTest
- BSD license
- Tests must be written in C++
- Designed for unit testing not complete application testing
- QTestLib
- Dual license
- Tests must be written in C++
- Designed for unit testing not complete application testing
- QTester
- Written by LLNL
- Not finished
- Not open source yet
- Python Scripting
- PyQt licensing cost.
- Limitation in PyQt in that the leaf class of C++ constructed object can't be accessed.
- Must maintain own C++ wrapped classes and utilities
Recommendation:
Begin by linking ParaQ lib with testing main built using components of KUnitTest and/or QTestLib. This would allow us to meet our initial testing goals. Then develop more complete testing framework as project progress.
Decisions
- Clinton Stimpson (ETI), Tim Shead (SNL), and Berk Geveci (KW) will serve as our 'Testing Team.' They'll be responsible for testing enforcement at their respective workplaces.
- See ParaQ:Action Items for a list of action items handed out at this meeting (1005-09-13)
