Hi Jimmy,

I expect that we agreed to use new serialization framework for new tests.
But I see that people continue develop tests for serialization using the old
framework (i.e. SerializationTester).

Could you tell me why you prefer the old framework? Is the new framework for
testing serialization complex, hard-to-use, bad documented or something
else?

Thank you in advance for your feedback,
Stepan.


Hi Stepan,

   Perhaps people are all lazy... (just kidding :P)
In fact, I've try the new framework already some days ago, I find two problems: 1. I find no method to make the ser file, as you know, in old framework, if no such file was found, it will create one at once, that was easy for us to put the file to the proper directory and run again, this time the test passes successfully. To me, write test once, run twice, only in two minutes I finish the testing, that was nice :) 2. Perhaps this is my mistake, I write a test[1], though I put ser file to the directory (e.g, src/tset/resource/serialization/org/apache/harmony/tests/java/lang/instrument), the new framework fails to load the file. I've debug into the code, find the path name correct, but the classloader load null(on eclipse 3.2, winxp). After that I thought the framework may be still on progress and not ready yet, so I give up and go on with the old one.

   Please correct me if I misuse the new framework.

However I shall agree to use the new framework if no more problem exists. Indeed the new framework looks good to me :) And the effort to change test code is not heavy then.

public void test_compatibilitySerialization() throws Exception {
        SerializationTest.verifyGolden(this, new
                                       llegalClassFormatException());
    }
