<h1>Section 1: General CVS Tests</h1>
<h3>Interoperability</h3>
<ol>
<li>Bringing in java projects without a .project - should prompt for project
type to create.</li>
</ol>
<h3>First time setup</h3>
<ol>
<li>Modules in the repo view and checking out modules</li>
</ol>
<h3>Project sharing and disconnecting</h3>
<ol>
<li>Sharing with no CVS folders against existing project</li>
<li>Sharing with CVS folders</li>
<li>Sharing new project with no CVS folders</li>
<li>Disconnect: keeping and deleting CVS folders, reconnecting (as above)</li>
</ol>
<h3>CVS workflow</h3>
<ol>
<li>Ignoring resources</li>
<li>“Add to .cvsignore”</li>
<li>Add to global ignore list, ensure its now ignored</li>
<li>Replace with (base, branch, version)</li>
<li>Update/commit with very large files (> 8 meg)</li>
<li>Ensure you are prompted for unsaved changes before performing a CVS
action</li>
</ol>
<h3>Project sets</h3>
<ol>
<li>Create one, delete projects, load set and ensure got projects back</li>
<li>Test against HEAD, project on branch/version.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Branching/Merging</h3>
<h3>Decorators</h3>
<ol>
<li>Change all the options, apply, see them redraw correctly</li>
<li>Add/remove items, ensure dirty markers update</li>
<li>Add to version control and see decorator change</li>
<li>Performance with large trees expanded</li>
<li>Collapse large tree, exit workspace, restart (should not be as expensive
as if tree had been left expanded)</li>
</ol>
<h3>Patching</h3>
Creating patches and then comparing with them. In particular,
<ol>
<li>added files</li>
<li>deleted files</li>
<li>added or deleted folders with added or deleted files in them</li>
<li>binary files</li>
</ol>
<h3>Misc</h3>
<ol>
<li>CVS Console: ensure written to</li>
<li>Check canceling everywhere there's a progress monitor</li>
<li>Does it cancel in reasonable time?</li>
<li>Is the workspace in an ok state after?</li>
<li>Compression switches, ensure data transfered ok (commit, update)</li>
</ol>

<h2>Variations</h2>
<h3>Container Selection</h3>
<p>Normally, selecting a folder is the same as selecting all of the individual
files underneath it. (The exception to this is if the folder itself is changed,
such as a conflicting addition). Performing any of the above operations
on a folder should behave as if the files underneath it were selected.</p>
<p>Note that if an action is not specified for a change type, it does not
apply to that change type. This is important in container selection.</p>
<p>For example: Commit does not apply to conflicting changes. If you select
a folder with an Outgoing Change and a Conflicting Change in it, Commit
will apply to the Outgoing Change but not to the Conflicting Change.</p>
<h3>Multi-Selection</h3>
<p>If multiple resources are selected, an action is enabled if it applies
to any one or more of the selected resources. Choosing that action will
apply the action only to those resources for which it is applicable.</p>
<p>For example: Commit does not apply to conflicting changes. Selecting an
Outgoing Change and a Conflicting Change will result in Commit being enabled.
Choosing Commit will apply to the Outgoing Change but not to the Conflicting
Change.</p>
<p>Multi-Selection and Container Selection may be used in any combination
with predictable results.</p>
<h2>Specific Scenaria</h2>
<h3>Making Manual Changes</h3>
<p>Create a conflicting file change. Manually edit the left source pane in
the sync view. Hit "Save" on the popup menu. The file should remain a Conflict;
you should get a prompt telling you to Mark as Merged when finished. Choose
Mark as Merged in the popup menu of the tree. The file should change to
an outgoing change. Commit the outgoing change.</p>
<h3>Merging Conflicts</h3>
<p>Try Override and Update with different combinations of Auto-Mergeable
and Non-Mergeable conflicts in the selection. If all conflicts are Non-Mergeable,
then the only choice is to replace with remote or cancel. If one or more
conflicts are Auto-Mergeable, the choices are (a) Auto-Merge any applicable
files, and replace the rest with remote, (b) Replace all files with remote
or (c) Cancel.</p>
<h3>Removing from View</h3>
<p>Choose Remove from View. Selected nodes should disappear. Refresh the
view. The nodes should reappear.</p>
<h3>Synchronize Outgoing Changes</h3>
<p>If you choose Synchronize Outgoing Changes from the navigator, the sync
view should be populated with <b>only the Outgoing Changes and Conflicts</b>
. This operation should be significantly faster in many cases. In this
case, ensure that Refresh does not cause Incoming Changes to appear.</p>
<h3>Working with Branches</h3>
<p>Try any and all of the above, but use a branch instead of HEAD. Behaviour
should be identical. The sync view decorator should show you the name of
the branch.</p>
<h3>Using Mixed Tags</h3>
<p>Using Team->Branch, Replace With->Branch or Version, and Team->Tag
as Version, you can create a project which has different tags mixed into
it. For example, one folder may be shared as V2_0, a single file may be attached
to the branch NEW_FEATURE_BRANCH, and the root of the project may be attached
to HEAD. We need to test usage of these projects in the sync view. For example,
if developer 1 has project P shared with HEAD, and folder P/F is shared
with branch B, have developer 2 release a change to folder F in HEAD, and
have developer 1 perform a sync. In this case developer 1 should not see
the incoming change.</p>
<h1>Section 3: Migration from 1.0 to 2.0</h1>
Both the below tests require a workspace created using 1.0 which contains
projects checked out from a CVS repository.<br>
<h3>Migrating a workspace project created using 1.0 to 2.0</h3>
<ol>
<li>Start Eclipse 2.0 on top of a workspace from 1.0</li>
<li>Select a project that was shared with a CVS repository and chose Team/Share
Project…</li>
<li>Select the Repository location to share with or enter it if it does
not appear in the list.</li>
<li>Upon finish, the user will be prompted to select either HEAD or the
branch to compare against. </li>
<li>The Synchronize view will then be opened and all files will appear
as incoming, outgoing or conflicting additions.</li>
<li>To see the real conflicts, enable “Compare File Contents” available
from the drop down menu in the title bar of the Synchronize View.</li>
<li>Resolve the real incoming, outgoing additions and conflicts as
appropriate (see sync view test plan for a description of sync state resolution)</li>
<li>When all conflicts are resolved, disable “Compare File Contents” and
perform an “Override and Update” on the remaining conflicting additions to
update the sync info of the local resources.</li>
<li>Ensure local copy contains the proper contents (can use Compare With/Latest
from Repository)<br>
</li>
</ol>
<h3>Migrating a project in a CVS Repository from 1.0 to 2.0</h3>
<ol>
<li>Load the project to be migrated from the repository</li>
<li>Perform Team/Set Keyword Substitution…</li>
<ol type="i">
<li>On page 1, set the keyword substitution mode determination to automatic
(the default)</li>
<li>On page 2, include files that are already shared</li>
<li>On page 3, ensure that files that are to be changed are actually
text files, Also, show files that will not be changed and ensure that they
are not text.<br>
</li>
<li>Upon finish, changed files are commited and the keyword substitution
mode is changed.</li>
</ol>
<li>Checkout a copy of the project and ensure that the file keyword substitution
modes are correct<br>
</li>
</ol>
<h1>Section 4: Branching and Merging</h1>
<h2>Main branching scenario</h2>
Here's the main sequence of steps performed over the life cycle of a simple
branch.<br>
<ol>
<li>Load or create a shared project with shared content</li>
<li>Perform a Team/Branch...</li>
<li>Ensure that the tag on the local resources has been updated (either
using the CVS decorators or resource properties)</li>
<li>Make some changes to local resources and commit them (working in a branch
is similar to working in HEAD. See the Synchronize test plan for detaits).</li>
<li>Load HEAD</li>
<li>Optionaly, make some changes to HEAD (may or may not be committed)</li>
<li>Perform a Team/Merge... to merge the branch with HEAD. Merging is similar
to synchronizing but only incoming and conflicting changes are shown. See
the Synchronize test plan for detaits</li>
</ol>
<h2>Variations</h2>
<h3>Comparing branch, root version and HEAD</h3>
After any of the above steps that modify the local content or the remote
content, the success of the operation can ne validated by comparing the local
workspace copy with either HEAD, the branch or the root version specified
when creating the branch.
<h3>Branch with local changes</h3>
Before branching, make some local changes but do not commit them. Changes
can include additions and deletions. After branches ensure that the changes
are still there. On merging ensure that any created or deleted resources
appear properly in the merge editor.
<h3>Don't start working in the branch</h3>
When the branch is created, do not start working in the branch. Ensure
that the workspace was not modified but that the branch and root version
exists remotely (using Comapre With/Branch or Version...)
<h3>Branch on a folder or file</h3>
Branching can also be performed on a folder or file.
<h3>Merge from Head to a branch</h3>
Make some changes to a branch and to HEAD. Merge the changes from HEAD
into the branch before merging the branch with HEAD.
