Hello fineracters, Trust that this email finds you well.
Special congratulations to our Google Summer of Code 2018 interns who are graduating from University ! In an effort to simplify fineract-cn-demo-server and increase the number of eyeballs looking at the platform's code, I've looked into demo-server's ServiceRunner and service-starter and have the some questions which beg for clarification. 1. Is it compulsory that the wait time [1] between starting the microservices be 20 seconds ? Should this be reduced ? To what extent ? 2. After migrating each service [2] when persistence is true, should there be a 5 seconds sleep ? 3. In the tearDown() method [3], should services be killed in any order or in the reverse order in which they were started in the before() method [4] ? 4. +Ebenezer Graham Any special reason why new notificationsAdmin [5] role was created ? What if it's possible to use the existing Org Admin [6] role and user to allow for permissions related to the notifications service just like the other services do ? 5. Should there be a 40 seconds sleep [7] in Microservice's start() method ? Should this be reduced ? 6. +Markus Geiss Can we default CONCURRENCY from 3-10 to 1-1 in ActiveMQForTest [8] ? I remember your advice to Graham regarding reduction in the number of received events from 3 to 1. 7. +Myrle Krantz , How do we run demo-server jar file with debug option to start micro-services based on this [9] ? -Dsuspend=y -Daddress=3020 ? This could help update the How-To-Build wiki page . I understand that sometime it's better to apologize than ask for permission but given that we want demo-server working for everybody, I thought it would be necessary to ask even the most minute details concerning changes that affect these integration tests. Kindly advise on these issues. At Your Service, Isaac Kamga.
