ServerSetup utility - more flexible way of setting up the server-side of
integration tests
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-2368
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2368
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Testing
Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz
I need a more flexible way of setting up Sling-based servers for integration
testing, that allows the various phases of the server setup (start runnable
jar, wait for it to be ready, install additional bundles, create test content
etc) to be selectively run or ignored.
This is useful when such server setups are slow, for example when testing
upgrades from one Sling-based system to another, which means starting an old
version, setting up some content on it, stopping it, starting the new version,
running tests on it to check that the test content was preserved or suitably
adapted, etc.
Being able to selectively disable setup tasks allows for restarting tests from
saved states, which is often much faster than redoing the whole setup when
debugging the resulting system or its tests.
I'll create the corresponding utilities under testing/tools and use them in
testing/samples as an example.
