[ogb-discuss] Test Development Project Approved

[Jim Walker]

The Test Development Project has been ratified by the
Sponsoring Communities, and can be established now.

Since this project relates to several Community Groups some key ones
were selected for sponsorship to increase visibility and ensure the 
project is strongly supported.

I can be the initial point of contact for the project.

Thanks,
Jim

Test Development Project

Purpose

Supports OpenSolaris test development and hosts the OpenSolaris test
source and test package repositories.

Sponsoring Community Groups

HA Clusters
OS/Net (ON)
Storage
Testing

Initial Project Team

Joel Buckley (jbuckley) - Network Storage Test Gatekeeper
Clarence Nie (???) - Solaris Test Collection Gatekeeper
Thelan Nguyen (thelan) - Open HA Cluster Test Gatekeeper
U.V. Ravindra (uvr) - Solaris Test Collection Gatekeeper
Jim Walker (jwalker) - OpenSolaris Test Lead
Sean Wilcox (swilcox) - CTI for TET Lead Developer

Project Description

The Test Development Project will centralize the OpenSolaris test software
source gates and make it easier to keep the code current. Here is an initial
set of test software gates we plan to host. These gates contain the
OpenSolaris test suites.

- Solaris Test Collection 1.0 Gate
- Solaris Test Collection 2.0 Gate
- Open HA Cluster Test Gate
- Java Interoperability System/Software/Storage Testsuites (JIST) Gate

In addition, this project will establish and maintain an OpenSolaris
test package repository. Both the SVR4 and IPS package format will
be supported.

The main development focus of this project will be on test infrastructure
software including test frameworks and tools. Most test suite development
will continue to occur in other projects alongside the code that is being
tested. Although not the main focus, general test development or test
development that otherwise does not have a home can use the web resources
of this project.

Also, members of this team will establish and organize the OpenSolaris
test development and integration procedures and mentor and advise new
test developers and provide support to other OpenSolaris projects to
ensure the OpenSolaris code base maintains it's high quality standards.
