[Vysper] XMPP BOSH Integration tests

[Bogdan Ciprian Pistol <bo...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

For the integration tests, using a client like Jakarta Commons
HttpClient would test the raw functionality, but I was thinking also
at some test framework like Selenium, What do you think of these kind
of tests?

Another question is: if Selenium is the way to go for integration
tests then how to get access to the Selenium framework, does Apache
infrastructure already has this, or seleniumhq.org would be
appropriate?

Thanks,

Bogdan

Ok, then I'll postpone this until the end of GSoC.

I don't mind at all, I agree with you that it will help find more
potential bugs.

I think using a basic HTTP client would be way simpler than Selenium
for this purpose. I'll even volunteer to code something up if you
don't mind. That way we'll get two independent BOSH implementations
which might help ironing out some bugs.

We should be able to run Selenium in our Hudson infrastructure.
