Description amehrega CLA 2005-09-19 10:55:13 EDT
Currently the user cannot specify a workspace that they can use for the
workbench that is used as the context for running test cases.

The user can't also specify the plug-ins that they wish to include in the workbench.

An extra page specific to the auto GUI test suite should be included in the
launch configuration dialog to allow the user to specify a workspace and the
plug-ins that they wish to include in the launched workbench.
Comment 1 amehrega CLA 2005-09-27 09:32:34 EDT
Changing the version to 4.2 and the milestone to unspecified.  Leaving it up to
PMC to include this in the plan.
Comment 2 amehrega CLA 2005-10-28 13:32:34 EDT
Increasing to priority 2 because it's an expected feature.  Instead of using a
new launch configuration page, the workbench location resource used by the Junit
plugin should be used (to encourage consistency between test tools)

Patches the AutoGUIExecObjAdapter to respect settings from the hyades .location view

A simple hookup of information from the TPFDeployment into the jvm args used to
launch a remote eclipse for AutoGUI testing.  Some hardcoded strings should be
replaced with definitions from the appropriate plugins, but I couldn't find the
correct plugin/Java files.
Comment 5 Julien Canches CLA 2005-11-10 05:08:22 EST
Hi Ali,

For the launch configuration work, the extension point
org.eclipse.hyades.test.core.launchconfigDeploymentProvider should help to do
what you need.
You may also vote for bug 83786, which provides some enhancements to the test
launch configuration (including easier means of specifying a location for tests
that just require one location).

Thanks for your comments Julien.  I would have voted for the feature if I had
not used up all my votes.
Comment 7 amehrega CLA 2006-01-25 15:21:32 EST
Setting target to future (not part of the official plan)
Comment 8 Barbara Rosi-Schwartz CLA 2006-05-17 11:31:08 EDT
It would also be good to be able to define desired Eclipse startup options. In our plugins we use startup options for things such as defining specific logging levels, switching performance timings on/off, etc.
Comment 9 Christophe Telep CLA 2006-06-28 02:52:33 EDT
helpwanted for 4.3
Comment 10 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-11-23 09:13:11 EST
Updating version/target based on http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/process/development/bugzilla.html.
Comment 11 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-03-14 14:28:02 EDT
Updating target to future as requested by the PMC.  

Enhancements are targeted to future if not in plan for the current release.
Comment 12 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-08-20 07:34:05 EDT
Reassigning to current component lead.
Comment 13 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-11-05 12:11:37 EST
Correcting priority since not a 4.5 candidate enhancement (see http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/process/development/bugzilla.html).
Comment 14 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-12-10 12:09:47 EST
In TPTP 4.5, the AGR was moved from a Technology Preview component to an As-Is component. As-Is components are primarily provided for prior users but imply no support (for example, defects, news group, and mailing lists) or commitment to triage or resolve opened defects. For this defect to be considered, please re-open with an attached patch including code to resolve the symptom and test cases to test the fix.
Comment 15 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2009-02-25 11:58:02 EST
Closing by default since not closed by the originator in the 7+ months since
being resolved.  

Please reopen if the issue is still present in the latest TPTP release or the
resolution is not correct.
