Hi Paul,
according to your remarks, I think that I haven't been as precise as I wanted:
- Would we permit subdirectories under tests, environment, definitions etc? (I think we would have to)
sure
- Will the structure make it easy to work with Eclipse/IntelliJ? (I have always found it hard to use WTP to do XML validation and also have relative paths to DTDs (e.g. ../dtds/webtest.dtd) and entity declarations etc.)
to some extend, yes. IDEs have a good support... when tests are "correctly" set up. For the rest, we will have to wait for WebTestClipse ;-)
- definitions.xml -> definitions?
?? definitions.xml is a ant file generated from the content of the definitions directory
- BC issue: will a fixed structure make life a nightmare for existing users?
absolutely not. No necessity to move
- Is there a reason for macro declaration to be through entities and not just imported directly?
to keep code shorter, the files within definitions dir don't need to be full ant files (that could be imported) but only the macros themselves
- I am a big Groovy fan but we should support JRuby and JavaScript etc scripts too
Groovy was just an example. I meant anything that has to be executed once before the tests run.
- We need to make it easy for reports to be somewhere else (it is the only directory not part of the source tree)
yep. All locations will be defined with properties that can be "overriden" with other values
- We should think a bit about data-driven tests (would all that belong in environment?) Maybe we could support 'data' too eventually.
how would you use your content from the data dir?
I would be happy to help flesh out and trial something.
thanks for the help. I have already nearly all ingredients, I just need to find time to mix them together ;-)
Marc.
