Client API Test suite (TCK)

This page is scheduled for review and update. Check back soon for updated content!

This page is a work in progress.

This chapter provides a test suite that can be used to test the implementation of an automation client library.

Automation Client Test Suite

The test suite is separated in three sub-parts:

  • Basic CRUD operations on documents,
  • Blobs management,
  • Marshaling extensions.

Only the first part is strictly necessary.

Base CRUD

Create and Read Documents

Scenario
  1. Create a Folder on / (Document.Create).
  2. Create a File child (Document.Create).
  3. Create a File child (Document.Create).
  4. Update  dc:description  property on second child (Document.SetProperty).
  5. Update  dc:subjects  property on second child (Document.SetProperty).
  6. Get Children of Folder (Document.GetChildren).
  7. Specify that dublincore schema should be fetched.

  8. Verify that:

Pagination

Scenario
  1. Create a Folder on / (Document.Create).
  2. Create three Files children.

  3. Call Document.PageProvider with "select * from Document where  ecm:parentId  = ?" with

    • queryParams = Folder uuid
    • pageSize = 2
    • page = 1

  4. Verify:

    • pageCount=2
    • the page contains two docs.

  5. Call Document.PageProvider with "select * from Document where  ecm:parentId  = ?" with

    • queryParams = Folder uuid 
    • pageSize = 2
    • page = 2

  6. Verify:

    • pageCount=2
    • the page contains one document.

Scenario
  1. Create a Folder on / (Document.Create).
  2. Create three Files children.

      • parentPath : reference the parent of the document to create,

    • one input:

      • the POJO itself.
  4. Get the returned POJO (with id set).
  5. Update the POJO title.

  6. Call Business.BusinessUpdateOperation with:

    • one property:

      • id: references the document id to update

    • with one input:

      • the POJO itself.

  7. Verify that:

    • the id is not null,
    • the title was updated.

Client Compatibility Matrix

Compatibility Level

This compatibility matrix focus on two aspects :

  • protocol compliance: capability to achieve simple usage scenario as defined inside the tests,
  • convenience features: additional conveniant features that may be provided on top of JSON-RPC library.

Protocol Compliance

Automation being a simple JSON-RPC, you should be able to do everything from every language as long as you can do JSON Marshaling and HTTP calls.

Hence for each test scenario, the target client library will be qualified with one of the three statuses:

  • Ok: built-in feature,
  • Easy: test can be achieved with minor tweak (like format JSON partially by hand ...),
  • Fail: feature is not possible or complex to use.

Convenience Features

This aspect is here to highlight the specific feature that may be provided by each client library implementation.

This feature list currently includes:

Static Check Before Call

Ability to check operation arguments and types before actually doing the server side call.

Working with Document Object

Ability to work fluently with Document objects:

  • fetch a document and retrieve it as a Document object,
  • update the Document object,
  • send it back to the server.
Background Upload/Download Pool

Manage HTTP threads pool for upload/download in background.

Caching

Support client side caching to provide minimal offline capability.

Advanced Exception Management

Retrieve advanced information about potential server side exception.

Advanced Authentication

Support integrated authentication (via portal_sso).

Layout Management

Support for fetching layouts definition associated to documents.

Running the Tests

Client Side Code

The client side code depends on the following underlying technologies:

  • JUnit tests for Java client,
  • NUnit tests for .Net client,
  • HTML/JS for JavaScript client,
  • Python script for Python client,
  • ? for PHP client,
  • ? for Dart client.

Server Side Code

Compatibility tests have to be run against the lastest version of Nuxeo CAP. For now, no specific additional module is required.

Keep in mind that the tests do create document on the tested Nuxeo instance, don't run it against a production server otherwise you will end up with garbage in your repository since tests don't enforce cleanup.
