Probably.

Possibly.  Have you considered creating two parent pages, one for each suite. 
You can put the TEST_SYSTEM and TEST_RUNNER veriables in those two parent pages
and then hang the two different suites below them.

All the old Runners are obsolete.  Use the -c command line argument instead.

Yes, we're going to have to update CSlim pretty soon.

The protocol error is a warning.  Certain features that are now supported by
FitNesse are not yet supported by CSlim.  These features are documented here:
FitNesse.UserGuide.SliM.SlimProtocol.  So long as you do not use those features,
the old version of CSlim will work for you.  But you'll have to tolerate the
warnings.

You can't do this.  Each 'script' directive overrides the previous one.  What
you want to do instead is use Library tables.

MyTriangle needs to derive from ColumnFixture.  The variables need to be public.

Hi Uncle Bob,

the current implementation makes !define override a system property.

This is also documented in

Is there a way to do it the other way around, i.e. define a default value on the page which is only used if the system property was not set?

In FitNesse, if you say ${ENVVAR} where ENVVAR is an environment variable, it will replace it with the value of the environment variable.

Hi Rumi,

if you use the Fit or FitLibrary testrunner (default is Fit), you will
have to extend ColumnFixture.
http://fitnesse.org/FitNesse.UserGuide.ColumnFixture

Declare the side fields public. Apart from that your setup might
already work - if you got the "Class MyTriangle is not a fixture"
message, FitNesse could already find your Class, but as said, it needs
to extend ColumnFixture.

If you use the Slim testrunner, you can keep MyTriangle a simple
object (Pojo), but you will have to implement setter methods.

Subject: !include vs. a SetUp page

ande_kastanis

Some of the tests I've been working on lately seem to execute slower than
before.

I've recently started using SetUp pages so assure that a test has the correct
preconditions.

Here's what I've cobbled together, running the same suite of tests, w/ different
"SetUp" schemes.

1. Removed the SetUp page from the Suite.  Tests assumed preconditions are
already met.
     Execution time(in minutes): 4:58

2. Used a SetUp page to set the expected preconditions.
     Execution time(in minutes): 7:27

3. Used a SetUp page that did absolutely nothing.  Tests assumed preconditions
are already met.
     Execution time(in minutes): 7:05

4. Renamed SetUp page to InitializeTest, and injected an include to the
"InitializeTest" page at the start of each test.  Uncommented the calls in the
SetUp page that set the expected preconditions.
     Execution time(in minutes): 5:00

It seems like I'm experiencing a 50% performance hit by using SetUp pages.

Is this typical?  Does the performance of a SetUp page depend on the depth of
the test tree? (It's typical for our tests to be 6-8 levels deep in the page
hierarchy.)

I'm currently running version 20100103.

Thoughts?

You can pass parameters in via the commandline with system properties like:

Subject: manipulating XMLs created and using conditions

subodh_brahmi

Hi All,

We have customized fitnesse to suite our project automation needs, which is an API testing project and request/response XMLs are being used to test the JAVA API.

Now before we send a request XML, we create few XML using fitnesse script/fixtures and then after the XMLs are created, we send the request XML through fitnesse to that API.

Now my issue is that the created XMLs need to be modified according to the condition, like if a particular condition is true then it should have few tags and if that is not true that it should have other set of tags. So can we do it using fitnesse? Like we use conditions in VB script is my question.

Thanks,

Subodh

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>I'm trying to figure out an acceptable way to run my suite of tests against a
particular system. Presently I'm running .net C# 3.5 with SQL Server 2008
Enterprise back end. Also using the latest FitSharp slim runner and FitNesse
server.</p>

<p>On the test server, I have an instance of Sql Server Express installed so
that I can use and attach a local mdf file. The process that I'm attempting to
do is as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Suite Setup - Run script to setup tables on a test database. The connection
string will attach the local database at this time.</li>
<li>Setup - Run wiki setup page to throw a bunch of data at import code
fixtures. These code fixtures just calls insert a bunch of times on my domain
service layer to populate an empty database with test data defined by
FitNesse.</li>
<li>Operate - Run a bunch of operations on the system</li>
<li>Check - Do a bunch of retrievals on the domain service asserting its
data</li>
<li>Tear Down - Delete data in all tables of test database</li>
<li>Suite Tear Down - Drop all tables and detach database</li>
</ul>

<p>I'm really curious what others have to say about this approach and if anyone
else has a specific process that they have found they liked.</p>

Make sure your fixture is built with the latest fitSharp dlls. Sounds like a dll version mismatch.

When I try the "Add Link" approach with the latest fitSharp libraries, I get this exception:

I do have the fitSharp fit.dll in my path.

What could I doing wrong?

jroets01

Ok. It was a runtime mis-config on my part. Thanks for the hint.

However... Now that I have overcome that, I get a NullReferenceException from
Fixture.TestStatus:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an
object.
    at fit.Fixture.get_TestStatus()

My calling code is this:
   TestStatus.Summary["mytext"] = "some text";

I looked at the source for Fixture.cs and I see that its TestStatus property
references a "Processor"; and I verified that Processor is null.

Is there something else I am missing?

Subject: Re: Re: Can I have active content in my test result table?

jediwhale

Where are you making the call? The Processor is populated when FitNesse runs the fixture, e.g.

|summary sample|
|add link|

|summary|

Here's my fixture code:

    public class SummarySample: DoFixture {

        public void AddLink() {
            TestStatus.Summary["mylink"] = "<a href=\"somewhere\">somewhere</a>";
        }
    }

You can't just create a fixture yourself without setting the Processor, in unit tests e.g. this is from ActionFixtureTest.cs

        [Test]
        public void TestStart()
        {
            table = BuildTable("ActionFixture");
            var fixture = new ActionFixture { Processor = new Service.Service(configuration) };
            fixture.DoTable(table);
            Assert.AreEqual(0, fixture.TestStatus.Counts.GetCount(TestStatus.Exception), table.ToString());
            Assert.IsNotNull(fixture.GetTargetObject());
        }

I would really recommend that this is two tests.  One that will trigger one

class in two, so my script table is using fixtures from both class.

Also take a look at this video by uncle bob.

As Gojko writes, the -e 0 parameter is the key to turning off the zip file generation.

Hello,
I wrote many fitnesse pages to test my application and would like to save them in SVN(Subversion). I don't want to save the zip files.

Your help is appreciated.

Subject: Re: Can I have active content in my test result table?

jroets01

I'm not doing anything abnormal (that I know of :)). This is what my test looks
like:

!|Link To File|
|Generate Data|
|Save Data|
|Add Link To Summary|

|Summary|

And my fixture:

using fitlibrary;

public class LinkToFile : DoFixture
{
     public void AddLinkToSummary()
     {
       TestStatus.Summary["mylink"] = "<a href='/files/myfile.out'>Output
File</a>";
     }

     public bool GenerateData()
     {
       //TODO: Generate something real
       return true;
     }

     public bool SaveData()
     {
       //TODO: Actually save something
       return true;
     }
}

In my VS project I have a reference to fitSharp's fit.dll and fitSharp.dll. My
project builds fine. I get intellisense on the TestStatus object, so I believe I
have the right stuff. The test runs fine until it tries to execute my
AddLinkToSummary method. I verified that Processor is null when my test runs by
simply adding this line of code right before setting TestStatus.Summary:

if (Processor == null) Console.WriteLine("Processor is null");

Ande,

That's pretty interesting.  Yes, deep hierarchies probably do take longer.  Is
the SetUp page near the top or the bottom of the hierarchy?  That'll probably
make a difference.

I'm going to have to look at improving the speed of the page database.  It's
very primitive at the moment.  I imagine it's wasting a lot of effort.

About a year ago I wrote a perforce CM_SYSTEM plugin. The project is open source
and should be suitable to get you started similarly with subversion as well. You
can find the project home page on google code:

that would be nice. Is there any effort to bring the various CM_SYSTEM extensions back into fitnesse or at least create a central publicly available project for them?

Some while back I thought about bringing in svn support and maybe also git
support into the perforce cm system. In general it would be great to have a
single version control plugin for fitnesse, maybe incorporating it completely
into fitnesse itself. There are some bugs in the printed out messages in the
perforce system, that I would like to remove by then, too. I'd be glad to help
out on this.
