Ofbiz Testing - student projects
Hi OFBiz Dev community,
I am associated with a nascent collaborative initiative called Kenfuse
(http://www.kenfuse.com). The effort is towards getting more and more
students and junior developers get a taste of open source early on and
decide for themselves. As part of the initiative we are working with
graduate schools and structuring electives to be delivered formally so that
the participation has a sense of direction ie students look forward to good
grades if they do a good job besides picking up good skills of course and
for institutes to prepare students on contemporary technologies and improve
placements etc. Feedback from project mentors would influence their grades
;-). Much like Google Summer of Code , but with faculty involvement and
incentive is grade and not cash :-(
Given that background, I am working with faculty from a top school in
Bangalore, India, who are looking to offer a focused course on open source
testing this term. The course is planned to contain two distinct sections a)
classroom teaching introducing the subject and covering the fundamentals b)
practical hands on projects where student ramp up on a specific assigned
project architecture and functionality, required testing tools for
automation and work with mentors to develop automation that can be
contributed back. My note is towards this later component. Would like to
explore projects on ofbiz testing and test automation that can be a good
learning for students and also double as contributions back to the project.
The term for students start in another week or so and expected to be a class
of over 40 with about 8-10 open source project participating as mentor
organization. Term ends by late Nov.
Also here is a link that can provide some high-level overview of the process
http://www.kenfuse.com/content/kencampus
If there are specific questions or clarifications required, I would be more
than happy to respond to them.

Hi Brett,
This is perfect. We do have a few other projects looking to develop tests
using Selenium and we should see some synergy there in terms of learning
curve for students. As next steps I will go ahead and initiate the project
with the links you shared and send you an invite to be the mentor. In
parallel will work with the students group to pick the interested ones so
that you get connected.

Hi Brett,
we are also working on it. Did you see it is now in the core OFBiz
system? Any updates for it? We are trying to iron out the problems and

Re: Ofbiz Testing - student projects
Posted by Brett Palmer <br...@gmail.com>.
Sandy,
I've been working on a Selenium extension called SeleniumXML for ofbiz
testing. I presented on it last year at the ApacheCon 2008 conference and
will be presenting on it again at this year's ApacheCon 2009.
We are trying to build up more example test cases for the ofbiz
applications. Perhaps your students could work on that and I could help as
a mentor. I'm in the process of creating some example tests for the
ecommerce application. Those could be used as starting points and we could
discuss other functional areas for testing.
Selenium is a browser based test tool. We have been creating these types of
test for automated functional testing rather than the standard unit tests.
Here are some links that can give you more information on the subject.

Sandy,
You can find documentation available on internet for JUnit test case.
They are written using JAVA (though we preferred to write them in
simple method). They are based on very simple concept - JUnit test
case helps us to test the service with pre-defined input and output
parameters.

Thanks Anil. I checked the issue and think it would be great to have more
such issues. However, since we are talking about students with little or no
background, will it be useful to consolidate some links and examples on how
tests have been implemented ? I can start by creating a project overview and
share with students. Let me know what works best.

Re: Ofbiz Testing - student projects
Posted by Anil Patel <an...@hotwaxmedia.com>.
Sandy,
This is interesting. I have tried doing something similar institutions
around our Indore (India) office.
Ofbiz has its system for implementing unit tests. Recently Jira issue
OFBIZ-2854 was created for unit test implementation. There are lots of
other similar jira issues that have been defined and implemented in
past.
It will be nice if you can review these assets and let us know how we
can help with your plan.
1) I (and few others from Hotwax Media) can help by reviewing the
contribution and commit them to trunk when they are ready.
2) I know Sumit Pandit from our company is working on implementing
list of Unit tests for accounting component. He can be creating Jira
issues and students can provide implementations.
Regards
Anil Patel
