Hi Guillaume,
About the kit and examples test, I think we can use XHarness[1] which
is an extension to Ant that helps simplify the process of automating
command line based task.
We've done it with FUSE ESB CPI test and it can verify the kit and
examples works as expect before release.
The XHarness is really convenient for launching script and checking
output both from stdio and log, it should be very suitable to do the
task like distributing smoky test.

Best Regards

I've just committed a first test to see what's possible.
It's really easy and only unzip the distribution, start karaf, wait
for it to be started, run the stop script, and wait for evrything to
shutdown.
We can build on that and add more tests for various scripts and
expected behavior.
We could even add some for demos if that makes sense ...
Feel free to hack on that ....
See http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1039339
The actual test is available at

Hi All,
After encountering some release issues with the Apache Karaf 2.1.x
branch it has come to the forefront that we need to improve our
distribution testing. The main target of distribution testing we need
is to try out the various scripts we include in each distribution
kit.
These tests would ideally cover un-archiving the kit, launch
bin/karaf, bin/start, bin/stop, bin/client, and bin/admin.
To help build these tests we can make use of bin/client to help make
ssh connections (send commands), and admin/core process library to
control the various processed involved in each test. To uncompress
the
different distributions we could use commons-compress or just ask
maven to do the work for us (this is done in the Servicemix NMR &
Features projects).
Regardless of which tools we use to build these tests a certain
amount
of CI will be required. Most of us currently use unix based systems,
so Windows based issues for example tend to sneak by. Hopefully by
having such tests automated we'll be able to catch distribution
issues
earlier.
Cheers,
Jamie
