AW: [eclipselink-dev] running [criteria] server tests on server with JPA

["Goerler, Adrian" <adrian.goerler@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Tom,

the eclipselink.jpa.wdf.tests are basically 1.0 tests. We used to execute them on the NetWeaver Server through a proprietary framework which is not open source. The mechanism for server-testing used for eclipselink.jpa.tests won't work out of the box as the WDF tests don't extend TestCase and we hence can't override the runBare method.

But I'm confident that we'd find some way to execute them on the server.

Before we do so, however, I think we should take care that the eclipselink.jpa.wdf.tests are executed standalone regularly in order to avoid regressions (there are already some). Shaun suggested that we could include them into the JPA-LRG test set, e.g..

Hi Adrian,

   This is an issue that we need to address.  I believe there are two things we 
need to do to address this.

1. For each supported application server, we need to figure out what 
configuration options we can use to deploy a JPA 2.0 application, likely an 
application-managed one.  (i.e.  Is there a way the application and the server 
can be configured to avoid things like JPA 1.0 injection so that the JPA 
annotations and API can be used by users)  We then need to make the necessary 
changes to our test framework to allow those configurations to work.  We have 
already started working looking for configuration options on WebLogic and have 
had some success.  We should start that work for other servers as well.

2. We need a JPA 1.0 regression test framework.  Candidates for that test 
framework are the EclipseLink 1.1.x test framework and possibly the new 
eclipselink.jpa.wdf.test classes.  I am not particularly familiar with the 
eclipselink.jpa.wdf.test classes.  Do you know if they can be configured to do 
JPA 1.0 testing on the server?
