Method Detail

suite

public static junit.framework.Test suite()

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

getVersionEffectiveDate

public VersionEffectiveDate getVersionEffectiveDate()

Method demanded by the CoreUser interface.

Specified by:

getVersionEffectiveDate in interface CoreUser

Returns:

A date to use to selecte the corrent version of config info.

getSecurityPrincipal

public java.security.Principal getSecurityPrincipal()

Get the security principal associated with this instance.

Specified by:

getSecurityPrincipal in interface CoreUser

Returns:

The associated security principal - if defined, null otherwise.

setConfiguration

public void setConfiguration(Configuration config)

Method demanded by the ConfigurationOwner interface.

Specified by:

setConfiguration in interface ConfigurationOwner

Parameters:

config - Configuration to use from now on.

getConfiguration

public Configuration getConfiguration()

Method demanded by the ConfigurationOwner interface.

Specified by:

getConfiguration in interface ConfigurationOwner

Returns:

The current configuration (at versionEffectiveDate).

getConfigurationNamespace

public java.lang.String getConfigurationNamespace()

Method demanded by the ConfigurationOwner interface.

Specified by:

getConfigurationNamespace in interface CoreUser

Returns:

The configuration namespace we're using

setConfigurationNamespace

public void setConfigurationNamespace(java.lang.String configurationNamespace)

resetConfiguration

Specified by:

resetConfiguration in interface ConfigurationOwner

testSimpleToXML

public void testSimpleToXML()
                     throws java.lang.Exception

Ensure that a simple object can be converted into XML. The XML databinding facilities of the core allow the mapping of XML to/ from objects to be defined. This test ensures that ToXML'ing an instance of Version generated the correct results.

1. Use the factory to create an instance of Version
2. Pass version into the core's toXml server
3. Compare the string returned from the service with a hard coded sample.
4. Fail if any exceptions are thrown.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

testSimpleToXMLPerformance

public void testSimpleToXMLPerformance()
                                throws java.lang.Exception

Run a simple performace test on the toXml service. This test ensures that the toXml service responds in a reasonable time.

1. Create an instance of a Version object.
2. Invoke the core's toXml service once to load classes etc.
3. Record the start time
4. Invoke the service 100 times with the same object.
5. Record the end time
6. Calculate the time taken for each call.
7. Fail if the time is > 2ms
8. Fail if any exceptions are thrown.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

testSimpleFromXML

public void testSimpleFromXML()
                       throws java.lang.Exception

Test the fromXml service with a simple object.

1. Create a hard coded string representing a valid Version object.
2. Pass the string into the FromXml service.
3. Fail if the object returned is not an instance of Version.
4. Fail if the values of properties on the instance don't match those defined in the hard coded string.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

testEmbeddedObject

public void testEmbeddedObject()
                        throws java.lang.Exception

Test to ensure that nested types marshal as expected.

1. Create an instance of History, and of a Version
3. Populate Version with test data
4. Add Version to History
5. Pass the History object into core.toXML()
6. Fail if any of Version's populated fields fail to appear in the result
7. Fail if any exception occure

Throws:

java.lang.Exception
