Testing

a) Changes to Test Assertions

1) SBL-TA-2009

SCA_BPEL_Test_Assertions_16.odt

compare the TA with the BPEL specification:

sca-bpel-1.1-spec-cd02-rev9.doc

Proposed changed TA:

(prerequesites =)

The partnerLink in the BPEL process:
a) does not map to a SCA service
b) does not have a sca-bpel:ignore attribute
c) does not have the @sca-bpel:multiRefFrom attribute, and
d) has @initializePartnerRole attribute with a value of no

Dieter:

does b) have to be sca-bpel:ignore="false"

Anish:

b) does not have a sca-bpel:ignore="true" attribute

Sanjay:

Yes

Sanjay:

The proposed change makes the TA agree with the latest form of the spec

Sanjay:

So the proposal is now

The partnerLink in the BPEL process:
a) does not map to a SCA service
b) does not have a sca-bpel:ignore="true" attribute
c) does not have the @sca-bpel:multiRefFrom attribute, and
d) has @initializePartnerRole attribute with a value of no

Sanjay:

So how are we handling the changes to the TA document?

Martin:

It isn't a formal accepted document, so editors can just make changes

Sanjay:

OK, so let's do that

Sanjay:

SBL-TA-2010:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bpel/201004/msg00026.html

Sanjay:

Need to make an update to b) as for SBL-TA-2009

The partnerLink in the BPEL process:
a) does not map to a service
b) does not have a sca-bpel:ignore="true" attribute
c) does not have the @sca-bpel:multiRefFrom attribute, and
d) does not have the @initializePartnerRole attribute

(for the prerequisite of this TA)

Sanjay:

No objections to this proposed change

Item 5b Status of SCA BPEL Runtime used for testing

Support for multiReference extension: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bpel/201004/msg00018.html

MikeE:

This function is not yet implemented in Tuscany as the spec was changing - I will update the runtime to provide the function

ii> Reference generation - http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bpel/201004/msg00019.html

Sanjay:

0..1 introspection does not work correctly

MikeE:

Yes, I'll have to implement it - we invented a new function to allow for checking of the wired status of a 0..1 reference

iii> Support for wiredByImpl - http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bpel/201004/msg00025.html

Sanjay:

Is "wiredByImpl" supported in the runtime?

MikeE:

No, it's not implemented in the Tuscany BPEL runtime

MikeE:

Is it mandatory?

Anish:

Depends on which conformance level you claim

MikeE:

I am not sure that there is any standard way of providing an EPR value to allow a wiredByImpl partnerLink to be initialized

- thus no standard testcase can be written

This is a handshake between the SCA runtime (providing the EPR value) and the BPEL runtime (consuming the EPR value) - both must fit together

Sanjay:

We could do a negative testcase for this - check that an exception is thrown if a wiredByImpl ref is wired

Sanjay:

I'd like to rearrange the order of the items on the agenda

Item d) d> How to automate negative tests? Should they be moved outside of SBPEL-General folder?

MikeE:

You put all the artifacts for a negative test into a separate contribution - like SPEL_3001

Action: TA editors to update the document based on 2010-04-15 call agreements
