About
The goal of this sprint is to create a suite of unit tests that test web layer functionality.
Initial testing should focus on automating the Rudimentary Testing within Testing Releases
All code should be worked on in this branch: http://svn.openmrs.org/openmrs/branches/webapp-testing
1 minute overview
The goal of the release testing is to create a set of "stories" about what we want to test. Example story.
There is then a java class that works uses that story template to execute the test. Example java and Example step reading the template.
Webdriver, jetty, and selenium are used behind the scenes to script and execute the actual steps/test
Running the tests
First give maven more memory to work with:
export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -Xms256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m"
To run all tests:mvn clean integration-test -DskipTests -P integration-test
To run tests against a pre-defined db (and specific tests):mvn clean integration-test -DskipTests -P smoke-test -Dtest=CreateAnEncounter
