Release test

The release test consists of the following (TODO: Still needs to be fleshed out some more)

The objects chosen for the first step of the release test are:


The release test consists of

  1. Success test
    • Test that the system responds as expected when presented with valid data.
  2. Failure tests
    • Test of correct behaviour on failures, ensuring that they are "failing gracefully".

Each table below describes the steps needed to complete the release test. Subpages describe the details of what you should do in the step.

On each step, do what the subpage describes. Then mark the status column with "OK" or "Fail" depending on whether the step was succesful or not.

The notes fields can be used for comments about the test.

Test that teh system fails gracefully (with meaningful error message) when receiving a sequence of pages that has missing pages in the sequence.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform preingest of objects with last page missing


Failure test - Simple preingester fails on too many pages

Purpose

Test that teh system fails gracefully (with meaningful error message) when receiving a sequence of pages with too many pages compared to the number in BIND_x.xml.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform preingest of objects with too many pages


Failure test - Full preingester fails on empty xml file

Purpose

Test that teh system fails gracefully (with meaningful error message) when one of the xml files is empty

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform preingest of xml files with an empty xml file among them


Failure test - Full preingester fails on mismatching pagenumbers

Purpose

Test that teh system fails gracefully (with meaningful error message) when the two occurrences of the pagenumber at imagefile and pagenumber are not matching.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform preingest of xml file with internally mismatching pagenumbers


Failure test - Full preingester fails on nonexistent imagefile

Purpose

Test that teh system fails gracefully (with meaningful error message) when the imagefile referred to in the xml is non-existent.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform preingest of xml file which refers to a nonexistent imagefile


Failure test - Direct disseminator call fails

Purpose

Ingest an object and its (faulty) disseminator, so that the webservice will crash. Check that in the end, the result in Summa is acceptable.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform pre-ingest of object with faulty disseminator

Ingest pre-ingest output into the Fedora

Check Failed Direct Disseminator Call

Install Summa On A Stick

Perform OAI harvest from miniDOMS to Summa

Summa-Ingest Harvest Output and Generate Summa Index

Summa Integration Failed Disseminator Success Test


Failure test - Performing OAI harvest fails

Purpose

Test whether harvester generates the expected output.

Steps

Test step

Status

Notes

Install the miniDOMS-package

Perform pre-ingest of object with faulty disseminator

Ingest pre-ingest output into the Fedora

Purge a few objects

Install the DDA Disseminator in the test Fedora server

Check Direct Disseminator Call

Install Summa On A Stick

Perform OAI harvest from DOMS to Summa

Summa-Ingest Harvest Output and Generate Summa Index

Summa Integration Success Test

Everything should still work, but the chosen paper object will no longer have a link to a page object.
