Re: [hyades-dev] U2TP Compliance of 3.0 driver
|
Hello,
I checked with Ina for the updates in the last version of the U2TP
document.
The changes mainly refer to the Standalone model (which is very relavant
for
Hyades), to the data pools, partitions and selectors, schedulers and
logs. There was
defined also an XML Schema. In addition, some names were changed.
I attached three documents: the U2TP with and without changebars, and
the FTF
Report where all change issues are discussed. The document will be further
revised until the UML2.0 is adopted, as Serge explained in the previous
mail.
In our opinion, we think Hyades should try to comply with the U2TP.
However, I will
try to build a list with the differences between the U2TP and the
current Hyades
driver (maybe we will use it sometime).
Best regards,
-george

First, the U2TP should be finally adopted next week at the OMG meeting
in St. Louis, MO. At that point the UML 2.0 Testing Profile will be an
OMG standard. A Revision Task Force will be created at the same time
to overlook the maintenance of the standard until at least the UML 2.0
is adopted as a standard later this year.
With respect to Hyades, I think we should do our best to re-align the
terminology to the UML 2.0 Testing Profile, at least on the user
interface. In addition to that, I've raised a couple of times the
mapping issues we have with our manual and HTTP samples: They are
somewhat misleading for someone trying to understand how the U2TP
should be used to "model" tests. I guess we should do our best effort
to re-align, but I've yet to find people ready to invest time and
energy in doing so.
Thanks, Serge.

Re: [hyades-dev] U2TP Compliance of 3.0 driver
Harm,
Overall I think the position is as you state, but the non-final aspect
relates mainly to the behavioural piece, not things like test
case/suite/context which are I think more stable, and there are many
fewer people affected if we change now than if we make breaking
changes post 3.0 when we have more widespread adoption.
Can we have a view from Serge?

I believe that Hyades declared it would assess becoming U2TP compliant
once 2 constraints where met. At one time we thought that would be in
this time frame.
1. UML2 and the U2TP proposals were actually ratified and fully
approved at OMG. My understanding is that this is close but not yet
the case.
2. We have access to the UML2 eclipse project in order to exploit it
as needed. My understanding is that this project is now underway, but
it is not far enough along for us to make 3.0 commitments of dependancy.
These two fact lead me to conclude we are not intending to be UML2 or
U2TP compliant in this release. Making incremental adjustments along
the way that are not API breaking may be feasible on a case by case
basis, but other than that, the cost of migration utilities and
support for backward compatibility is not something we wanted to
commit to.
Thanks for your time.

[hyades-dev] U2TP Compliance of 3.0 driver
One of the things that came up at the management call was the U2TP
compliance or otherwise of the M9 driver. I believe that we stated
Hyades would be U2TP compliant. This means if we are not we should
raise bugs. I am not personally competent to check for compliance, and
unfortunately Serge who is the interface point with the U2TP wasn't on
the call. I have asked George Din to check with Ina Schieferdecker at
FOKUS, however I would like to raise the following issues which seem to
be floating aound and see if we can close them over email.
1) We seem to use Test Suite instead of the now-current Test Context
2) The Manual Test and the HTTP Test seem to use Test Suite and Test
Case where they should be using Test Case and Test Component
3) There seems to be some concept of a Test Motivator floating around
that we don't understand.
Feedback on this ASAP would be good.
