[Springframework-developer] Test coverage

[Rod J. <rod...@in...>]

I think one of the things that has contributed to the success and quality of
Spring is our commitment to a good test suite. I've put a fair bit more work
into the test suite over the weekend, with the upgrade to EasyMock 1.0 and
new test suites for Velocity etc.

I'm really pleased that everyone is emphasising tests in new coding, but
there is a still a bit of catchup to do.

With this and Alef's new tag tests, test coverage is now 75.8%. I'd like to
see this go above 80% before 1.0RC1.

So I think we should all kick in and add tests to our areas of interest.
Please run the Clover analysis as a starting point.

Current major gaps include:
- XSLT support. I wrote this code so I guess I really should do the tests
but I'm not sure I have time. (These days I work entirely test first, but I
wrote that last year.) If any of the dev team are using this, maybe they
could take a look? It might require some refactoring.
- jdbc.core.support: No tests for incrementer support. Can the developers
looking after this please try to add some tests?

Any volunteers for these or other areas in which tests can be improved?

Regards,
Rod
