[Marathonman-devel] My initial experience with marathon 0.91

[Jins T. <jin...@su...>]

Hi all,

I succesfully tried using marathon .91 in both Linux and Windows.

Linux was Redhat 9 and Windows was XP. Java 1.4 on both.


I used one of the SampleApplication which was released during one of the
past Releases.

Following are my observations. 
==============================

1. SLOW PLAY will be an absolutely helpful Feauture. If my assumption is
correct this is to avoid putting Sleep in the testcases for compensating
the Time Delay problems

2. Look and Feel has been improved tremendously.

3. After manual modification of a Testcase, if we go to another test
case previously we used to get a prompt saying that Testcase has been
modified, do u want to save. I got a feeling like this option is not
there now, may be i am yet to find.

4. While clicking JUnit to run all or selected testcase is it possible
to use Slow Play there also. I mean running all testcases in slowplay
mode if needed.

5. After running one TestCase if i accidently close result window in the
bottom line client seems to be crashing.. Actually these all are my
observations which may or maynot be true. I am yet to explore these
things again.

6. If we are about to run all testcase in JUnit mode , Should Play,
Record, SlowPlay  buttons in the main window buttons should be disabled?

7. Is it possible to save the Testreport into pdf or something. (PS:
Many of my observations can be silly since i am a novice in this field)

8. While we prepare the supporting Documents it would be nice if we can
mention some Tips like 

a. Invoking  marthon -i to get the exceptions

b. How can we start manually write some python scripts which can be used
as CaptureScripts. (Some links would be sufficient i guess)

c. We were using "None" for some assertions like date which will vary
everytime in the Testcase.



Thanks and Regards

Jins
