2. Project Summary
2.1. Project Description
The following areas will be tested:
- Clustering deployment, support dynamic deployment to
cluster and rolling upgrade. Support application related commands in
clustering
environment
- Support Weblogic deployment descriptors in Glassfish
(partial)
- Rename sun specific deployment descriptor dtds (sun-*.dtd)
to glassfish dtds (glassfish-*.dtd)
- Application versioning, support deployment of application
with multiple versions
2.2. Risks and Assumptions
- The clustering deployment feature depends on the clustering
infrastructure features (basic clustering, synchronization and dynamic
reconfiguration). Any delay in the delivery of the depended features
will affect the delivery of the clustering deployment feature.
- The application versioning feature is done by external
contributor SERLI and there is certain risk associated with external
contributors. For example, all versioning bugs were assigned to
the external contributor Romain Grecourt, who works for Serli in
France. So the bugs fixing totally is out of our control.
3. Technical Description
3.1. Features to be Tested
I)
Clustering Deployment
a) Dynamic deployment to the
cluster
The following features will be tested:
- Archive deployment: deploy different types of
applications as an archive to the cluster, using a cluster name. The
applications have to be available for all clustered instances.
- Directory deployment: deploy different types of
applications to the cluster in a directory format. The
applications have to be available for all clustered instances.
b) Rolling upgrade
- Test the rolling upgrade procedure. With the enhancement of
the application rolling upgrade,
no cluster instance restart is needed and the dynamic reconfiguration
can be left on (no need to turn it off and then on).
c) Application related
commands in clustering environment
- Test new commands which will be added on top of the
existing set of v3 commands: create-application-ref,
delete-application-ref, list-application-refs.
- Test the existing v3 set of the commands which will be now
supported/extended in the clustering environment: deploy,
undeploy, enable, disable, deploydir,
redeploy, list-components, show-component-status, list-applications.
Will be supported WebLogic deployment descriptors in Glassfish to
enable
WebLogic applications to run on GlassFish, and also will be
allowed users to develop applications with simple WebLogic extensions
on Glassfish and then run on WebLogic. In this release, will
be supported only the
subset of the elements in
the WebLogic deployment descriptors where Glassfish has equivalent
functionality, and the rest elements will be ignored during processing.
- Test that the weblogic deployment descriptor will be
ignored
with a warning
message when the corresponding glassfish or sun deployment descriptor
is present in the same archive.
- Test how the deployment module will be responsible for the
deployment
framework level changes, and the elements in weblogic-application.xml
and weblogic-application-client.xml.
The sun
specific deployment descriptor dtds will be renamed to glassfish dtds.
- Test that sun
deployment descriptor will be ignored with a warning message when the
corresponding glassfish deployment descriptor is present in the same
archive.
- Test that new glassfish dtds - work.
With
application versioning feature, the user will be able to deploy
multiple versions of the application to the Glassfish. And the user can
easily upgrade or rollback to one version of the application using the
basic set of the commands (deploy/enable/disable). Only one version of
the application can be enabled at one time in the runtime. The name
option of the existing application commands is
extended
to include a version identifier or a version expression to support the
application versioning feature. For example, you could deploy the
version RC-1.0 of web application foo using the following syntax:
asadmin deploy --name foo:RC-1.0 foo.war.
- This feature will be test using a separate test plan.
Most of the testcases will be automated.
3.2. Features Not Tested
- JSR88 deployment, as it was in v3 release, will be tested
by
CTS.
- create-lifecycle-module, delete-lifecycle-module,
list-lifecycle-modules will be tested, as it was in v3, by the CLI
test suite.
3.3. Methodology
The initial testing will be executed on at least two
platforms: Linux and Windows. Then the deployment test will
be executed using hudson along with a core test.
I)
Clustering Deployment
a) Dynamic deployment to the
cluster.
- Will be tested by the existent v3 deployment test suite
that will run against a cluster target.
- To the existent test suite will be added
"redeploy" option that was not supported in V3.
b) Rolling upgrade
- These new testcases will be automated, using perl.
c) Manual testcases
Will be executed the same v3 manual testcases:
- Dynamic Reloading: redeploy the application by
creating/modifying a special .reload file in the applications.
repository. Only server instance is supported.
- Automatic deployment: drop the application archive in
the autodeploy directory. Only server instance is supported.
- list-components, show-component-status, list-applications,
get-client-stubs will be tested manually so far and will be
automated later in a context of cluster, versioning and WebLogic DD
features.
- Test clustering deployment and versioning in admin
GUI.
d) Application related
commands in clustering environment.
For new commands: create-application-ref,
delete-application-ref, list-application-refs will be created new
automation test cases.
v3 commands: deploy, redeploy, undeploy, enable, disable will be tested
by the existent v3 deployment test suite that will be executed against
cluster target.
For this feature have to be created new applications that use WebLogic
deployment descriptors. After that these testcases can be automated.
Have to be created new applications that represent this feature, after
that these testcases can be automated.
Most of the testcases will be automated using perl.
