Hi, with the new schema handling system (the schema is now stored as Ldap entries in the server, and loaded at startup), the integration tests are taking forever (17 mins on my 3GhZ desktop, 13 minutes on my shinny Imac dual-core).
The reason is that all the schema elements have to be read out of the server, and as the server is able to manage around 500 req/s (more or less), each test cost around a second, bare minimum. As we have around 150 tests in server-unit, this is around 3 minutes to run integration tests, and we have the double in core-unit, so it's 6 more minutes. We have a few options : 1) Improve the server so it can handle 5000 req/s, dividing the tests duration by ten : yeah, that would be cool, but... 2) Improve the tests to limit the number of server startup and shutdown to one by test (the setup should contain a test to check if the server has been started or not before, and add code to feed the server and some other code to clean the server) 3) Write a new tool which will register all the operations to play them in revert order when finishing a test 4) any other smart idea, guys ? -- Cordialement, Emmanuel Lécharny www.iktek.com
