Bugzilla
Here's how to find bugs:
- New bugs that require triage have a
Status of New or Reopened and are assigned to platform-cvs-inbox@eclipse.org
- Bugs for which help is appreciated are marked with the helpwanted keyword
- Bugs that are targeted for a particular release of milestones are tagged with that milestone.
- Once triaged, Bugs are categorized in the following manner using the bracketed category identifier as a Summary prefix::
- <nonwiki>[</nonwiki>Actions<nonwiki>]</nonwiki> - bugs that deal with CVS actions.
- Annotate View - bugs that deal with the Annotate View
- Change Sets - bugs that deal with Change Sets.
- Commands - bugs that deal with the CVS command infrastrucutre.
- Connection - bugs that deal with connecting to CVS
- Console View - bugs that deal with the Console View.
- Decorators - bugs that deal with CVS decorators.
- History - bugs that deal with the CVS implementation of the History API
- History View - bugs that deal with the CVS implementation of the History View page
- Misc - bugs that defy categorization.
- Model Support - bugs that deal with the model API
- Modules - bugs that deal with CVS Modules
- Operations - bugs that deal with CVS operations.

Running the CVS Automated Tests using JUnit
Follow these steps to run the CVS tests:
- To load the Team/CVS test plug-ins, check out the following plug-ins from :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse repository:
- org.eclipse.test
- org.eclipse.test.performance
- org.eclipse.core.tests.harness
- org.eclipse.core.tests.resources
- org.eclipse.team.tests.core
- org.eclipse.team.tests.cvs.core
- The CVS tests require a repository to test with so you will need to set up a test repository.
- You can obtain the Linux flavour of CVS from here.
- You can obtain the Windows flavour of CVS from here. Please refer to the this wiki entry on configuring CVSNT to work with Eclipse.
- The org.eclipse.team.tests.cvs.core contains a couple of sample launch configurations:
- CVS UI Tests: runs the tests related to the CVS/UI plug-in configured for windows
- CVS UI Tests (Linux): same as above but configured for Linux
- CVS Core Tests: runs the tests related to the CVS/Core plug-in
- The Windows configuration is set up to use C:\eclipse as the test area. To configure the tests to use your test repository, perform the following steps:
- copy the repository.properties file from the org.eclipse.team.tests.cvs.core plug-in to the C:\eclipse.
- Open the file and modify the repository property to contain the location string that identifies your test repository. This string should be of the format :method:user:password@host:/repo/path (the other fields are used to tailor the tests in other ways but the defaults should work fine).
- From the Run menu, choose Run.. and then select CVS UI Tests to run the tests.
