Re: MINIFI-350 minifi-cpp end-to-end integration testing framework

great idea Andy! I can see this being extremely valuable even outside of the MINIFI cpp context. Specifically, to migrate my dataflow from one environment to another (DEV to QA to PROD), an integration testing framework could be very helpful for flow validation purposes. in addition to testing

Thanks for the feedback. I will put together a proof of concept which we can further evaluate/refine/merge upstream. -Andy On 7/13/17, 11:30 AM, "Kevin Doran" wrote: Great idea, Andy! Additional types of automated tests would help the minifi-cpp project

Re: MINIFI-350 minifi-cpp end-to-end integration testing framework

Great idea, Andy! Additional types of automated tests would help the minifi-cpp project significantly, and I think your proposal is an appropriate way to add integration tests for the minifi agent. This sounds like a great way to verify expected behavior of processors and the system of

Re: MINIFI-350 minifi-cpp end-to-end integration testing framework

Yes, I envision having a directory of declarative test cases. Each would include a flow yaml, one or more input files, and expected outputs. I’d like to document the convention before writing the implementation because if the conventions are solid, we can change out the actual test driver

Re: MINIFI-350 minifi-cpp end-to-end integration testing framework

Hi Andy, I think this is a great idea to test integrating MiNiFi among multiple system components. Do you have a feel for how you will allow others to create test cases? Will you attempt to minimize the footprint of contributed tests by creating a bats based framework? I ask because it would be
