[Logitest-developer] Help

[Narayana, S. <sho...@lo...>]

Hi,

I have installed Logitest on my PC. I am facing few problems.

Could you kindly guide me:-
1. Unable to access links such as - "www.yahoo.com" , "www.google.com"
2. What is the GET and POST method?
3. Only the Last page is displayed when we "Play the current test". How
to add the delay?

Thanks,
Shobha

Hi Przemek,

I was a secondary developer on Logitest and I don't think there's been =
much development on the project for quite some time.  However, to answer =
your question, I didn't use formal test cases for the development I did, =
so it wasn't formally a Test -Driven Development approach.  However, =
like most styles of RAD I used an approach of frequent small changes =
followed by testing which may be considered as a type of informal =
Test-Driven Development IMHO.

I'll have a look at it.

The most important thing I can think of is to update the documentation.  It 
requires information on variables, recording and how to migrate your XML 
files from 0.8 to 0.9.

There seems to be a fairly large range of applications for load testing 
already out there, and a few for monitoring.  How do you think LogiLoad and 
LogiMonitor would be different?  Or are we better off on working towards 
compatibility with something like Apache JMeter?

I am still undecided myself, so I would be interested in your thoughts.

Regards,
Clancy.

RE: [Logitest-developer] Code changes

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

Nice changes Clancy.  The record indicator really helps and the view
switching works much better.

Have you had any luck in figuring out why the root <html> tag doesn't
show in the DOM view?  I tried several different things back when I
wrote that code and never could get it to work.  Perhaps you will see
something I didn't.

Anyhow, thanks again for your continued efforts on improving LogiTest.
I suppose we ought to start considering a new release.  I will finish up
the batch test execution code ASAP.  After that is there anything else
you can think of which needs to be done prior to releasing?

Finally, one of my goals originally with this project was to create a
suite of testing tools - initially LogiTest for recording and playback
of single tests, followed by LogiMonitor which executes tests on a
scheduled basis and executes actions when tests fail, and finally
LogiLoad which would distribute a test on one or more clients and then
pound the server.  Do these other items interest you?  There is already
some code in the CVS for the LogiMonitor (I only managed to release 1
version before I stopped spending time on LogiTest) in case you are.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden

[Logitest-developer] Code changes

[Clancy M. <cl...@cy...>]

I have committed code to the CVS with the following changes:

- Added recording indicator in the status bar
- Added enabling/disabling of recorder toolbar buttons
- Attempt to fix bug in SaveThread temporary files under windows
- Added ability to switch between browser views with the same document 
remaining displayed  (there was previously some code that tried to do 
something like this but it was ugly and didn't seem to work - it basically 
tried to reload the document after you switched views.  The new code just 
tells the newly displayed component to re-render using the current document.

Cheers,
Clancy

RE: [Logitest-developer] Features added

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

I suppose there is not much advantage at this point.  The nice thing about
using Velocity is that if you ever needed support for more than just
variables (i.e. loops and such) then Velocity supports it.  In addition it
would be one less thing that we need to maintain. :-)

But if you are happy with your system for the moment then don't bother
changing it.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden

I am currently using the Oro libraries with a custom implementation of the 
Substitution interface - checkout org.logitest.Variables.  IMO this works 
well for now and saves adding unnecessary download bulk.  What advantages do 
you see of using Velocity?

I believe it was line by line.  If I recall correctly they parse the
HTML (similar to running it through HTML Tidy), convert it to all caps
and then compare that with the last run.

For the moment I took it out of my version of the code.  I would like to
be able to put it back in though.  I await your changes.

What are you using for variable insertion?  Perhaps we can use Velocity
for all variable substitution.

I'll see if I can find something to do the diffing.  However, for the sites 
that I am testing there is lots of date dependent output (e.g. if you have 
logitest create a task that is due on 2002-02-16 today it will be a regular 
task, but tomorrow it will be a due task).  I found that this made the diff 
testlet unreliable by design.

I haven't used eTest, did they do a character by character diff or something 
with more tolerance?

You're right - not very descriptive.  I'll see what I can do.

Will do.

At this stage variables are only supported in URLs.  I needed them because 
the site that I am testing uses a system assigned session ID in the URL 
(rather than cookies).  When I test my site the login page is loaded and this 
has a session ID as part of the login form's action URL.  I use a "Regex 
Variable Reader" to read a value for the variable SESS from the page using a 
regular expression.

In the test properties dialog I set the session substitution command to 
replace any session IDs in recorded URLs with $SESS$.  Hence when the 
recorder adds resources they have $SESS$ instead of the session ID.  When the 
browser opens these resources it substitutes $SESS$ with the value read by 
the variable reader on the login page.

While variables are only substituted in URLs at this stage I imagine it could 
be useful to allow them to be substituted in request parameters (i.e. post 
data) as well.  This means you could read a variable of one page and then 
submit it as part of the post request on another page.

No problems - likewise for yours.

Agree 100%.  This is the main reason I stopped working on LogiTest - there
are no open source Java web browser components worth a damn.

Seems like a pain.  I would almost rather ignore SSL...My company site uses
it though (and that was the main reason I wrote LogiTest.)  I am OK using
CalpaHTMLPane for the moment and just using SSL through explicit resource
definitions.

Right...that sucks.  I definitely would like a good diff testlet though - I
am not sure if you have ever used eTest, but that is there method for
testing success or failure.  It is good that LogiTest lets you define a
testlet, but it would be nice to be use diff as a default testlet for pages.

Me too.  I thought it worked before, but I will take a closer look.

Sure:

java.io.IOException: Could not backup file to
C:\DOCUME~1\ANTHON~1\LOCALS~1\Temp
\logitest55082.xml
        at org.logitest.ui.SaveThread.run(SaveThread.java:91)

Not very descriptive though.  :-)



A couple suggestions as well:

 - The hot key for the start and stop recording is the same...perhaps the
stop recording button and menu item should be disabled until the record
button is hit.
 - It would be nice to have something indicate that you are recording.
Originally I had a little "RECORDING" flashing in the bottom of the window,
next to the progress indicator, but you are welcome to do something else.
 - If I record and then type a link into the address field the page comes up
but is not added to the test tree.
 - You may want to allow the delay between user clicks while recording to be
stored and used as the pre-load delay.  Users should be able to enable and
disable this feature.  The pre-load feature allows the playback to occur in
a more realistic fashion (i.e. simulate user delay).

All in all though I really like the recording.  I am glad someone did it.
:-)  I am curious about your "added support for variables" comment in your
CVS entry...what exactly is it?

BTW - Thanks for your hard work and input on LogiTest.

-Anthony

I guess this is another instance of me assuming that the CVS server 
recognises certain extensions as binary (gif, jar, etc).  I'll try re-adding 
them as binary.

As a side note, I found that the current build.xml will copy the images to 
build/classes after it makes the jar, causing the images to be missing from 
the jar for the first build after a clean.  I have patched the build.xml and 
will commit it soon.

Thanks.

Hmmm.  This is currently OK for URLs opened from other parts of Logitest - 
these URLs are opened by AbstractBrowser and the HTML is then given to 
CalpaHTMLPane.  The only part that would fail is if you were submitting forms 
or clicking links within the CalpaHTMLPane.

For the web sites I am testing I found JEditorPane basically unusable for 
clicking on links anyway - any links inside tables were rendedered as links, 
but didn't respond to clicks.

Long term I think we need to find a better (preferrably with source 
code) HTML renderer than both JEditorPane and CalpaHTMLPane which both seem 
to be limitted.  In the shorter term maybe we need to let the user switch 
between the two so that they can choose to have either recording functions or 
HTTPS browsing functions.  What are your thoughts?

It can be added to the config, but it is fairly rough at the moment and only 
has limitted usefulness.  Part of what is lacking is a way to display the 
differences between the reference and captured documents.  The only diff code 
I can find out there is GPL which has the 'viral' effect when you add it to 
your own code.

I noticed this but thought it had always been this way and couldn't really 
understand how I could have broken it.  Anyway, I will have a look at it.

Can you give me a stacktrace?  It seems to work fine for me.

RE: [Logitest-developer] Features added

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

Clancy,

Here are some issues which I found with your additions:

- The icons you added seem to be corrupt.
- NPE in the singleStep() method when no items selected.  I have commited
code to fix this - the default behavior is to just select the first test
(and thus test the first resource) when nothing is selected.
- CalpaHTMLPane doesn't support SSL.  Any thoughts on how to deal with this?
This is the reason I switched back to JEditorPane.
- You added DiffTestlet but not to the config.  Is it because you want to
test it some more before adding it to the available testlet list in the
config?
- The DOM and HTML views don't seem to be in sync with the browser view.
- The temp file addition to the SaveThread always fails on my machine (and
thus I cannot save).

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden

RE: [Logitest-developer] Code enhancements

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

Clancy,

The build failed on both of my Win2K machines.  It looks like the
jakarta-oro JAR you uploaded uploaded as a text file instead of a binary
file.  I replaced it with a fresh copy of the JAR from the Jakarta site and
it works fine now.  I have replaced the copy in CVS with the proper binary
copy - you may want to update and take it for a spin.

For future reference, please make sure that binary files get stored in the
CVS server as such.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden

[Logitest-developer] Code enhancements

[Clancy M. <cl...@cy...>]

I have made the following changes to the CVS version of Logitest:
   - Redirect handling improvements - maximum number of redirects enforced
     and post data not sent to redirect URLs
   - Added name property to resources and expect testlets and display name in
     tree
   - Single step execution of resources.  Resource execution code moved to
     resource class.
   - Resource properties window now sized to smaller than screen size (was
     sized larger than screen under GNOME)
   - Resource events in TestCallback now pass Resource objects instead of
     indexes.
   - CalHTMLPane now uses HTML document obtained through JBrowser.getStream
     instead of retrieving its own copy of the document.
   - Open resource in browser now sends post parameters with request
   - Pasting a node multiple times no longer places the same object in the
     tree.
   - File changes during save are rolled-back if an exception occurs

[Logitest-developer] Features added

[Clancy M. <cl...@cy...>]

I have committed the following changes to the CVS

- Added support for variables
- Added recording of get and post requests made by the browser
- Added ResourceChild class as generic child to variable readers and
  testlets
- Replaced OROMatcher.jar with jakarta-oro-2.0.5.jar
- Changed browser component to CalHTMLPane to support recording and for
  better rendering
- Enhancements to paths (e.g. in Expect Testlet) to make them more xpath
  like (e.g. / at start, // for recursive search)
- Added Diff Testlet
- Changed default view to Browser instead of HTML
- Added session ID substitution to test properties for use with recording
  and diffing when URLs contain a session ID

Cheers,
Clancy

[Logitest-developer] 'ResourceChild' implementation and org.apache.oro

[Clancy M. <cl...@cy...>]

I would like to propose the following changes (which I will/have implemented) 
to Logitest:

- Replace the old ORO package with the newer org.apache.oro package

- Create a generic 'ResourceChild' abstract class which the 'Testlet' class 
would inherit from.  The ResourceChild would represent any kind of node which 
can be added below a resource.  As well as testlets, this would include 
things like 'variable readers' to read variable values from a resource's 
document.  This involves changing most of the current testlet code to deal 
with generic resource children instead and also changing the test's XML 
format to use <resourceChild> instead of <testlet>.

Any objections?

Clancy

[Logitest-developer] Cookie-Path Exception

[Quique Ruiz-V. <qr...@is...>]

Hi all,

I am testing the LoginTest util, but when I add two URLs an exception occurs. 
I don't know if it is a problem of LoginTest or a problem of Tomcat3.2.3

The resulting page is this:

<html>
<head>
<title />
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Error: 500</h1>
  <h2>Location: /adm/index.html</h2>
  <b>Internal servlet error:</b>
  <br />
  <pre>java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The name Cookie Path is a 
  reserved word.
  at javax.servlet.http.Cookie.(Cookie.java:185)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.RequestUtil.processCookies(RequestUtil.java:189)

  ...
  </pre>
</body>
</html>


Thanks for your help.

Quique

[Logitest-developer] Is there a way to run Tests from Command Line Only (No GUI)

[Denny Q. <de...@xt...>]

Hi,

I was wondering if there existed a Text UI that would allow at least
the running of test from the command line, given a Test File.  The
need for this is mainly for our build process, allowing us to package
up all the different tests written, and batch run them.  This would
allow us to provide a more automated way of doing our regression tests.

Thanks for any information.

This should probably be configurable either through the Preferences dialog
or in on a test by test basis (i.e. in the Test's setup dialog) or both.
Regardless I think it is a good idea and a good feature.

BTW, have you updated to the most current version of the code?  Just
wondering
if you have taken a look at the new scripting capabilites and what you
think of them.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
