How to create a namespace mapping from a remote test?

[Christian Schneider <ch...@die-schneider.net>]

I would like to reproduce a problem with replication when a namespace is
not present on publish.

So I would like to:
- create a new namespace mapping on author
- Create a node with an attribute that uses the new namespace
- publish the node to author and check if it is correct

I can do all the steps but the namespace mapping creation.

Does anyone know how to do this? I have not found any means on the sling
testing client to do it.

Yes and you might use tinybundles to create that bundle, to avoid too
complex a setup.

Teleported tests run server-side so they can do whatever - and BTW the
sling-org-apache-sling-junit-teleporter uses the tinybundles technique
mentioned above to inject the tests in a Sling instance.

Hi Christian

I can see two options. However, both require deploying a custom bundle.

1. The JCR Content Loader has support for installing *.cnd files[0].
I.e. a (very slim) bundle could be installed to register a namespace
declared in a cnd file.
2. Deploy a custom bundle with a servlet that allows registering a
namespace. The servlet could even implement the majority of your test
case. I'm not sure how far the Teleporter junit rule would get you,
but it may be worth looking into.
