Hi David, Andrew & all the others package maintainers,
I already have created an example to show how dull testing can be executed
automatically using Jubula(
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=347651).
Imho it has the following advantages:
- You don´t have to do the tests for every release and every target again
- You instantly get report after the build process (getting +/-1
automatically)
- You can track executed tests for every release candidate
- You don´t have to reinvent the wheel again (because you can reuse some
common eclipse workflows and use cases)
- You can use a very nice tool ;-)
I created some very simple tests looking for availability of views,
perspectives, documentation and testing a HelloWorld class.
The tests can be used for Eclipse for Testers and Eclipse for RCP and RAP
Developers but other packages can be involved easily.
I also write a short blog entry about testing the EPP(
http://www.bredex.de/web/index.php/blog_article_de/items/your-packaging-project-needs-you.html
).
If you are interested in getting involved let´s talk about the
possibilties to make it available for you in the building process for Juno.
Regards,
Felix

FYI ... I added this Linux Tools testing link to

just for improved cross-referencing. (And, I think it is very good, Andrew
... sets a good example for us all :).
I suspect some other packages could add a little something or links to the
EPP Testing page?
No concrete reason to ... just helps show how it is tested.
I also removed the PHP Package from the test page, since it no longer is a
package.
