Rx - RIExerciser - Home Networking Testing Tool

Rx Project Overview:

The RxProject is an effort to take the current DvrExerciser OCAP Xlet and refactor it into a frame work which provides the following:

1. A library of functionality which aggregates OCAP API calls into functional building blocks provided by RI Stack & PC Platform. 
2. A scripting interface which allows automation of testing of these functional building blocks.
3. A "Guide" Type OCAP Xlet which is referred to as the RxExerciser which supports functional/application level testing and development through a GUI.

Rx Project Management:

Current Project Status:

Architecture defined, preliminary design completed, and initial implementation of driver library started. Scripting tool identified.

Project Goals for Upcoming Week:

What do we think we can get done in the next week?  Are we on target for Dec. 5 completion of Phase 0?

Agenda for Monday Meeting - Nov. 7th, 2011

1. Discuss Requirements as described on Wiki (please review prior to meeting).  We want to make sure they are complete & group agrees.
2. Steve A/Steve M provide a brief overview of the proposed design as described on Wiki. Decide if a follow on meeting is needed to discuss in more detail.
3. Now that a top level design has been identified, lets discuss how to proceed in following areas:
   1. List of functions required to support current DVRExerciser functionality - Parthi
   2. Script Writing - Nick
   3. Nightly Testing Apparatus - Jonathan K
   4. Develop Strategy for testing UI - Parthi & Nick
   5. Other areas to consider?
   6. UI Xlet Framework – Lori is unsure she has the bandwidth to keep this moving forward. Let's discuss
