Alex hasn't finished 206665 yet, will close on this by end of week
provide a 4.4.0.3 patch to consumer (Autonomic Computing Log Analyzer) for 206260 and 206665
need to provide a patch for consumer (WebSphere Business Monitor) for 207763 and 207806.
there is a high chance that the initial target date Friday November 16th, 2007 will slip for a few days.
4.5
4.5 i3 TP2 completed
some issues with a few test results which were not showing up in the report (solved at the time these notes are written)
Rohit still working on the automation defect: 207253
Gotoh-san still working on the automation defect: 207251
Alex stressing the importance of having the automation defects completed
Rohit raised the issue that AGR test cases are hard to maintain
Hari for example automated his tests on Eclipse 3.3 and now on Eclipse 3.4 things are not working anymore. He preferred to run the manual tests instead for TP2
Alex agrees but on the other hand do we have alternatives? Tests that require user interaction are not really automatable using junits.
if junits are suitable for a test scenario then they should be the preferred testing method
Alex observes the rather poor coverage of the test suites, the new defects opened: 209403 , 209404, 209690 were found during ad hoc, scenario driven tests and not caught by any currently existing test case
Gotoh-san experimented with junit but will use AGR for 207251
Richard has finished features 194954, 206718 and waits for i4 to open to check in his code and associated tests
Alex to contact WebSphere Business Monitor to check whether a slippage from the promised target date Friday November 16th, 2007 is a problem
team to continue working on automating tests, i.e. complete defects 207251, 207253, 207253, 207255
Alex to help Hari with some AGR test issues
team to concentrate on reducing the defect backlog in i4
Alex and Marius to complete the refactoring work 207240 and to resume work on features 200138, 200139
Alex to define a couple of scenario driven test cases that would form the base for the Log Analyzer smoke tests (by the time these lines are written Alex thinks of involving Rohit and Gotoh-san in this work).
