Myrna van Lunteren commented on DERBY-892: ------------------------------------------ At least the failure makes sense without the file...Yes, I double checked on windows (sane) jars an classes, and (sane) jars on linux that indeed the nist test passes when part of another suite. > add mechanism for specifying policy file for individual function tests > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-892 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-892 > Project: Derby > Type: Bug > Components: Test > Versions: 10.2.0.0 > Reporter: Myrna van Lunteren > Assignee: Myrna van Lunteren > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 10.2.0.0 > Attachments: DERBY-892_20060514.diff, DERBY-892_20060514.stat, > DERBY-892_3_20060523.diff, DERBY-892_3_20060523.stat, > DERBY-892_4_20060523.diff, DERBY-892_4_20060523.stat, derby-892_pre.diff > > It would be nice to be able to specify a test-specific policy file. > This should get handled similar to existing properties, i.e. get specified in > a test_app.properties file (or, for a suite, in the suite.properties file). > The file should then be copied into the correct place. > Note, that the 'old' functionTests harness (as opposed to junit tests) > includes a check for a property called 'serverPolicyFile' (in > harness/jvm.java). The name is a left over from when the policy file was only > used for/by network server, and should be renamed - derbyTestPolicyFile, for > instance. It is not used anywhere at present, and not specific to network > server. It would be nice if this could be expanded, or, if not used, removed. > The default policy file used is the derby_tests.policy file under > functionTests/util. > Also, currently, the property can only be used with RunTest - for further > traction, it should probably get passed on through RunSuite/RunList. > Once confirmed to be working, the property should get documented in > <trunk>/java/testing/README.htm. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
