      • Content missing in Tabular Report
      • Connection property does not deploy all dependencies

Enhancements

• Queries.
• Schedule.

• Jerome:
  • Move, Copy, Delete, Rename and Import/Export test assets: Paul reviewed and integrated the final patch. Jerome is continuing on the test cases and documentation. Dependent defects:
    • Filename vs. logical name in UI
    • Adding a location or artifact with a duplicate name of a removed resource in a deployment does not work.

• Alexander Nyßen:
  • Providing the ability to record user's interactions with GEF objects in a GEF editor: Alexander (TPTP user and contributor) has contributed a patch and documentation for basic GEF/Draw2D support in the AGR. AG/PMC approval has been received and Paul has opened a Contribution Questionnaire (CQ) for the contribution.

Defects

• Queries.

• Schedule.

• Platform Project impacting the Test Project:
  • Execution of any testsuite fails using the IAC - InactiveProcessException

• Defects with Community patches that MUST be integrated in I7 (e.g. this week):
  • Duwayne:
    • Difficulties recording a session in Linux: the order/reporting of SWT events on Linux seems to be different than in Windows.
    • Certain characters in text on Button causes recorded script not playable
    • Continuous single selection in List/Table/Tree cannot be recorded correctly
    • Redundant dependency on org.eclipse.ui.testing
    • Redundant message to STDOUT when execute in quick mode

• Defects that MUST be completed in I7 (e.g. this week):
  • Duwayne:
    • Exception when canceling a recording (before "recording "actually starts)
    • Command Line Execution - overwrite = True flag does not actually overwrite the results
    • Cannot remove a test invocation to a removed HTTP request.
      • The invocation for some deleted testcases can't be removed in behaviour tab
  • Jerome:
    • Move, Copy, Delete, Rename and Import/Export test assets:
      • Filename vs. logical name in UI
      • Adding a location or artifact with a duplicate name of a removed resource in a deployment does not work
    • Test assets' editors (locations, datapools etc) allow save with empty internal names
  • Paul:
    • UI allows to launch non-profilable tests in profile mode.
    • Unmovable rows in Datapool Editor
    • Usability - adding existing artifacts/locations to deployment should select by name (not filename)
    • (Usability) creating TPTP test but you need to have parent project created first.
    • Context sensitive help requires refactoring and new content.
    • scroll bars not appearing when needed in test suite editor and other Hyades
    • what does the synchronous option mean for an invocation behavior in a JUnit Test Suite?
    • doc updates for section Creating a test deployment
    • Location does not contain port number.
