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:
- A library of functionality which aggregates OCAP API calls into functional building blocks provided by RI Stack & PC Platform.
- A scripting interface which allows automation of testing of these functional building blocks.
- 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:
Ongoing development of driver library functions. Initial components checked into SVN.
Meeting Agenda for Monday, Nov. 14th
1. Steve A/Steve M provide an demonstration of Tune Test functionality via script writing and show working example using RiScriptlet and OcapAppDriver APIs to give group an introduction of framework design
2. Discuss question Steve A raised:
I'm at the point where I am thinking about what interface to use for "injecting" scripts into RiScriptlet. Right now, it just runs a script specified in the command line args, but I wanted to have an interface where you could tell RiScriptlet to run a script when RiScriptlet is already running (so you wouldn't have to restart in between each script run).
What interface would users find most convenient? How about from a nightly test and automated test point of view? Telnet?
3. What is the plan for upcoming week? What time do people have available and where should efforts be focused?
