----------------------------------------
Summary: Add CatalogManager.properties tests
Key: DAFFODIL-2424
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2424
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Test
Reporter: Steve Lawrence
Daffodil has a capability to use a CatalogManager.properties file to specify
XML catalogs for resolving includes. We do not have many, if any, tests that
verify that this functions as expected. This is partly because it is difficult
to write tests because the CatalogManager.properties file must be at the root
of the classpath, so one test could affect other tests.
We probably need a way to fork tests that deal with CatalogManager.properties
so that we can fork different tests in different temprory directories that
contain different CatalogManager.properties files. Perhaps the CLI integration
tests are a good candidate for this, but it might make testing some
circumstatnces more difficult.
For reference, the TestDaffodilXMLLoader.scala file had tests that verified
CatalogManager.properties behavior. But in some cases the tests would be
skipped, and they were not thread safe when they were run. So these tests were
removed. See the below link to see these tests before they were removed. These
tests are good candidates as a starting point for what kinds of tests would be
useful to add:
