<h1>Eclipse Team and CVS 3.4 Test Plan</h1>
<p>This plan contains a detailed listing of the features available
in the Eclipse CVS plug-in. There are some items that don't have many
steps but are meant as a reminder that the features exist and should be
tested. If you want to help, please feel free to hammer away on some
bits of functionality.</p>
<p>For a more verbose explanation of the CVS plug-in please refer to
our documentation.</p>
<h2>CVS Server Versions</h2>
<p>We focus our testing on the latest stable *nix server version. We
will however sniff test the latest developer *nix server and the cvsnt
server. In addition, we will run our automated tests on all three
flavors. The current server lineup is:</p>
<p>Latest Stable: <span style="font-weight: bold;">1.11.22</span></p>
<p>Latest Development: <span style="font-weight: bold;">1.12.13</span>
</p>
<p>CVS NT: <span style="font-weight: bold;">2.5.03.2382</span></p>
<h2>Testing Tips</h2>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">test corner cases</font></li>
<li>test setups which we typically don't use during development
(for example no Plug-in development)</li>

</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Whenever you have to fill in data in dialogs try to foul the
dialog by providing incomplete or bogus input</li>
<li>Watch for view updating (package explorer, browsing
perspective, outliner) when source content gets changed</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>change font for text editor and dialogs to different font</li>
<li>check that dialogs are rendered correctly
<ul>
<li>specified dialog font is used</li>
<li>no buttons and labels clipped</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>detached views</li>
<li>dialogs pop up on correct monitor</li>

<h1>Repositories View</h1>

<h2>Basics</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
<h3>Adding and Discarding Locations</h3>
<p>You should be able to create a repository location from the
toolbar of the view or via the context menu. Try expanding the location,
the HEAD, Versions and Branches categories. Also, try the failures cases
from <a href="connections00001.html">Connections</a>. Things to try:</p>
<ul>
<li>Create repo locations for different connection types: ext,
pserver, extssh.</li>
<li>Create a repo location by pasting a location string into the
host field (e.g. :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/home/eclipse).</li>
<li>Expanding project nodes should process the children in the
background and the view should remain responsive while this is
happening. When children nodes are added to the tree the tree shouldn't
be too jumpy.</li>
<li>Discard a location and ensure it is removed. Also ensure that
discarding is not permitted when projects in the local workspace are
shared with the location.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Repository Location Properties</h3>
View a location's properties page and ensure that information is correct
and can be changed. Ensure that the sharing information for any projects
mapped to the location are also changed.
<h3>Modules</h3>
<h3>Working with modules</h3>
<ul>
<li>Expanding HEAD or the Versions category should display the
modules defined in the CVSROOT/modules file</li>
<li>Check Out and Checkout As should be available on modules and
should work as expected</li>
<li>Performing a "Configure Branches and Versions" on the module
allows the user to set the autorefresh file and add some tags. Ensure
that the module now appears properly in association with those tags.</li>
</ul>
<a name="00007.html"/>
<h2>Check Out - prompts</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0 M5<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2004/06/01 19:14:48 $</p>

<li>Perform a Checkout As</li>
<li>Use the same name and specify a custom location</li>
<li>Ensure project was checked out properly</li>
<li>Delete the project but leave the contents on disk</li>
<li>Perform a Checkout on the project</li>
<li>Ensure project was checked out properly</li>
<li>Perform a Checkout As of the same project to the same location
as in step 3</li>
<li>Ensure that the user is prompted twice: once to overwrite
project and once to overwrite custom location</li>
<li>Ensure OK and Cancel have proper behavior</li>
</ol>

<h2>Checkout Wizard</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:14 $</p>
<p>The checkout wizard should be available from the following parts
of the workbench: import, new project, empty workspace CVS synchronize
action, toolbar in CVS perspective. The checkout wizard is also
available from the context menu of the repositories view as the Checkout
As menu item.</p>
The following variants should be tested:
<ul>
<li>Create a new repository location and checkout a project
entirely from the wizard.</li>
<li>Check out a tag</li>
<li>Check out a project that does not contain a .project file.
This should result in a second wizard that allows project configuration
(e.g. Java project).</li>
</ul>
<h3>Repositories View Checkout Variants</h3>
These tests require an existing repository which contains projects, at
least one of which does not contain a .project file.
<ol>
<li>Perform "Check Out" on a single project. Ensure that repeating
results in overwrite prompt.</li>
<li>Perform "Check Out" on multiple projects.</li>
<li>Perform "Check Out As..." on a single project (that contains a
.project file) and enter custom name and/or custom location.</li>
<li>Perform "Check Out As..." on a single remote project that does
not have a .project file and ensure that the user is prompted for the
project type to create.</li>
<li>Perform "Check Out As..." on multiple projects and enter a
custom parent location.</li>
<li>Perform "Check Out As..." and specify a tag.</li>
</ol>

<h2>Reconnecting an existing project</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0 M6<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:15 $</p>
<p>The following scenario represents how a user would reconnect a
project that does not contain CVS meta-data to it's remote counterpart.
It is assumed that the local project was derived from a previous version
of the remote project but both the local project and the remote may have
been modified since then.</p>
<h3>Scenario 1: Existing location using project name</h3>
<p>Perform the following steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Load an existing project (using Checkout or you could import a
plug-in project from the target area).</li>
<li>Disconnect the project and indicate that CVS meta-data is to
be deleted.</li>
<li>Modify some local resources.</li>
<li>Optionally, modify the remote contents of some resources using
a separate checkout.</li>
<li>Perform a Team>Share Project and select CVS (if there is more
than one repository provider available).</li>
<li>Select the repository the project was loaded from and click
Next.</li>
<li>Use the project name as the module name. Click Next.</li>
<li>In the tag page, select HEAD as the branch to share with and
click Next.</li>
<li>In the sharing page, only the files that do not have the same
contents as the server should appear. Perform a Mark as Merged or
Commit on these files.</li>
<li>Click Finish.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Scenario 1: New location using custom module name</h3>
<p>Perform the following steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Load an existing project using Checkout As and a different
name.</li>
<li>Disconnect the project and indicate that CVS meta-data is to
be deleted.</li>
<li>Discard the repository location.</li>
<li>Modify some local resources.</li>
<li>Optionally, modify the remote contents of some resources using
a separate checkout</li>
<li>Perform a Team>Share Project and select CVS (if there is more
than one repository provider available).</li>
<li>Select to create a new repository and click Next.</li>
<li>Enter the repository information for the repository and click
Next.</li>
<li>Enter the name of the module that the project was loaded from.
Click Next.</li>
<li>In the tag page, select HEAD as the branch to share with and
click Next.</li>
<li>In the sharing page, only the files that do not have the same
contents as the server should appear. Perform a Mark as Merged or
Commit on these files.</li>
<li>Click Finish.</li>

<h2>Compare with another branch or version</h2>
<p>Since: M8<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
<p>You should be able to select a project/folder/resource and
compare against another branch or version. Multi-select should work
across projects in different repositories. Once the comparison is shown
it should be possible to merge changes into the local workspace. It
should also be possible to remember the comparison, which will cause it
to appear in the synchronize view.</p>
<p>We should support multi-selection of files, but I'm not sure what
should be shown to the user in those cases.</p>
<h3>On file selected</h3>
<ul>
<li>If the file has differences open a compare editor and show
otherwise a message is shown to indicate that the file is the same.</li>
<li>should be able to open the history view and link in to the
opened compare editor</li>
<li>the compare editor should update when changes are made to the
local file in some other context (e.g other editor, refactoring).</li>
</ul>
<h3>Multiple selection</h3>
<p>Entire contents of the folder are compared deep. If changes are
found the user is notified and they are shown in a dialog. If no changes
are found the user is notified. The dialog should allow the user to
browse the changes and merge anything into his workspace. If the user
wants to keep the comparison non-model, he can add it to the synchronize
view. There is a button to do so on the compare dialog.</p>
<h3>Merging changes</h3>
<p>When the compare dialog is showing several changes you should be
able to selectively merge anything into the local workspace. Specific
attention should be made to the following cases:</p>
<ul>
<li>Edit the local then press ok. You should be prompted to save
the changes and the changes should be correctly updated in the
corresponding resource.</li>
<li>Edit the local and browse to another file. You should be
prompted to save the changes.</li>

<h2>Performing a Synchronize</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
<p>Synchronizing means to compare your local workspace contents with
the contents in another location with the goal that the two locations
should contain the same contents at some point.</p>
<h3>Performing a Synchronize operation</h3>
<p>There are a few ways of launching a synchronize operation. They
all open the same dialog but the initial selection is affected by where
the operation is launched. Here is the list of ways to start a
synchronize along with the expected initial selection.</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Using the global synchronize action (via toolbar or
keybinding)</b>: The selection should be obtained from the active view. If
no view is active, all projects should be selected.</li>
<li><b>Using the Synchronize button in toolbar of the
Synchronize view</b>: All projects should be selected.</li>
<li><b>Selecting Synchronize from the context menu of
resources in the synchronize view</b>: The selection should match what was
selected when the menu was selected.</li>
<li><b>Selecting Team > Synchronize with Repository from the
context menu of any resource based view</b>: The selection should match
what was selected when the menu was selected.</li>
</ul>
<p>Once launched, a synchronize will run in the background.
Currently, the user is prompted to switch perspectives when the
synchronize is launched. When a synchronize completes, the user is
prompted either with a dialog stating there is no changes or one that
contains a details area that shows the incoming changes. The user is
given the option to suppress the post-synchronize dialog.</p>
<h3>Notice a file is out-of-sync in another view (e.g. packages
explorer, types) and want to see the changes</h3>
<p>In case you can select a file, it will be refreshed with the
server, and if changes are found the compare editor is opened that will
allow browsing the changes. If no changes are found, you will be
prompted.</p>
<h3>From another view would like to browse the outgoing/incoming
changes for several resources</h3>
<p>Select a folder or group of files and Team > Synchronize will
open the sync view and automatically refresh with the remote repository.</p>
<h3>In the sync view and would like to refresh to see if there are
new changes from the server</h3>
<p>Assumption, the sync view may or may not be open when the
synchronize is performed. Maybe we need a different prompt each case.
One for Team > Sync and another for refresh from the sync view.</p>

<h2>Synchronize View</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:14 $</p>
<h3>Synchronize View Modes</h3>
<p>Ensure that choosing direction modes result in proper filtering.</p>
<ul>
<li>Incoming mode contains incoming changes and conflicts.</li>
<li>Outgoing mode contains outgoing changes and conflicts.</li>
<li>Both mode contains all change types.</li>
<li>Conflict mode contains only conflicts.</li>
</ul>
<p>Also ensure that there are no empty containers (e.g folders or
projects) in any of the modes.</p>
<h3>Synchronize View Models</h3>
<p>Ensure that each model contains the appropriate output. Models to
test include:</p>
<ul>
<li>All Models: Projects should contain content from the highest
level model (e.g. Java projects contains Java content like packages
while non-Java projects contains folders).</li>
<li>Workspace: All projects are shown and contain folders. For
this model, also test the presentation types (Flat, Hierarchical and
Compressed Folders).</li>
<li>Java: Only Java projects are present and contain Java content
(e.g. packages). Also ensure that any resource content is present (e.g.
non-source folders).</li>
<li>Change Sets: All changes are grouped by change set.</li>
</ul>
<p>Also ensure that mode switching works properly for each model
type.</p>
<h3>Synchronize View Operations</h3>
<p>Ensure Commit and Update buttons:</p>
<ul>
<li>operate on all applicable changes</li>
<li>prompt in some form before executing</li>
</ul>
<p>Ensure Update menu action:</p>
<ul>
<li>is enabled when selection contains incoming or conflicting
changes</li>
<li>operates only on selected changes</li>
<li>silently handles mergable conflicts</li>
<li>will prompt if conflicts are not mergable</li>
</ul>
<p>Ensure Commit menu action</p>
<ul>
<li>is enable when selection contains outgoing changes</li>
<li>prompts for unadded resources</li>
<li>operates only on selected changes</li>
</ul>
<p>Ensure Override and Update</p>
<ul>
<li>is enabled for outgoing and conflicting changes</li>
<li>prompts to confirm</li>
<li>operates only on selected changes</li>
</ul>
<p>Ensure Mark as Merged</p>
<ul>
<li>is enabled for incoming and conflicting changes</li>
<li>operates only on selected changes</li>
</ul>
<p>Ensure Refresh button refreshes all projects regardless of mode,
selection or working set.</p>
<p>Ensure Refresh menu action refreshes only the selection</p>
<p>All actions on large sets</p>
The following table can be used to determine what operations are
appropriate and what result to expect.

<h2>Decorations</h2>
<p>Since: M8<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2004/06/01 15:23:56 $</p>
There are many standard decorations in the sync view. Most significant
are the propagated flags.
<h3>Conflicts</h3>
<p>Conflicting changes should be propagated to parent resources such
that you can easily see, when the tree is collapsed that there are
conflicts. When the conflict is resolved, the parent conflict markers
should be removed.</p>
<h3>Error and Warning problem markers</h3>
<p>Error and warning makers are shown on resources and propagated to
parent resources such that you can easily see if you are releasing
errors or warnings.</p>
<h3>Branch changes</h3>
<p>Changes to branches, revisions, should be updated automatically
in the views decorators. For example, if you branch from the sync view
the branch name should appear.</p>
<a name="change_sets00001.html"/>
<h2>Change Sets Layout</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 M2<br>
Last Modified: $Date$</p>
<h3>Change Sets for incoming changes</h3>
To perform these scenarios you will need to get one or more projects in
your workspace that have many incoming changes. Preferably all the
changes will have commit comments and some files will share a comment.
Once you have this setup, you can perform the following sub-scenarios.
<h4>Enabling/disabling Change Sets</h4>
<ol>
<li>Synchronize the projects with HEAD, enable change set mode and
ensure that the files appear in the proper change sets. Also ensure
that the proper sub-layout is used by expanding some of the nodes in
the tree.</li>
<li>With some nodes expanded and additionally one or more
selected, disable Change Sets. The same nodes should remain expanded
and selected.</li>
<li>With the same nodes selected and expanded, re-enable change
sets. The expansion should remain. There may be more expanded if the
same expanded project or folder appears in multiple change sets. The
selection will remain unless there are two entries for the same
resource (i.e. if a project was selected and it appears in multiple
sets, it will no longer be expanded).</li>
</ol>
You should also confirm that markers and conflicts are properly
propagated to parent nodes.
<h4>Change Set Modes</h4>
<ol>
<li>Switch between the various modes and ensure that the displayed
nodes are correct. Also ensure that expansion and selection is
maintained.</li>
<li>Only Incoming and Outgoing mode show change sets.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Updating</h4>
With several nodes expanded, perform an update on one or more files that
are incoming changes. Ensure that the updated files are removed from the
view and that other expanded nodes remain expanded.
<h3>Outgoing Sets</h3>
The following aspects of outgoing change sets should be tested:
<ol>
<li>Modified files can be added to a new or existing change set.
Ensure that when they are added, the file remains visible in the Sync
view.</li>
<li>Files in a change set can be transfered to another change set</li>
<li>If there is a default change set, any modified file that is
not already part of a change set is placed in the default set. Files
that are already in a set should stay in that set if more changes are
made to the files.</li>
<li>The title and comment of a change set can be changed.</li>
<li>Layout and modes changes work properly for outgoing change
sets in the Synchronize view.</li>
<li>Committing one or more files in a change set will result in a
commit dialog that is primed with the comment from the set.</li>
<li>change sets (including which is the default), are preserved
across restarts.</li>
</ol>

<h2>Scenarios</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:38 $</p>
<h3>Making Manual Changes</h3>
<p>Create a conflicting file change. Manually edit the left source
pane in the sync view. Hit "Save" on the popup menu. The file should
remain a Conflict. Choose Mark as Merged in the popup menu of the tree.
The file should change to an outgoing change. Commit the outgoing
change.</p>
<h3>Merging Conflicts</h3>
<p>Try Override and Update with different combinations of
Auto-Mergeable and Non-Mergeable conflicts in the selection. If all
conflicts are Non-Mergeable, then the only choice is to replace with
remote or cancel. If one or more conflicts are Auto-Mergeable, the
choices are (a) Auto-Merge any applicable files, and replace the rest
with remote, (b) Replace all files with remote or (c) Cancel.</p>
<h3>Removing from View</h3>
<p>Choose Remove from View. Selected nodes should disappear. Refresh
the view. The nodes should reappear.</p>
<h3>Working with Branches</h3>
<p>Try any and all of the above, but use a branch instead of HEAD.
Behavior should be identical. The sync view decorator should show you
the name of the branch.</p>
<h3>Using Mixed Tags</h3>
<p>Using Team->Branch, Replace With->Branch or Version, and
Team->Tag as Version, you can create a project which has different
tags mixed into it. For example, one folder may be shared as V2_0, a
single file may be attached to the branch NEW_FEATURE_BRANCH, and the
root of the project may be attached to HEAD. We need to test usage of
these projects in the sync view. For example, if developer 1 has project
P shared with HEAD, and folder P/F is shared with branch B, have
developer 2 release a change to folder F in HEAD, and have developer 1
perform a sync. In this case developer 1 should not see the incoming
change.</p>

<h1>Synchronization Restart Behavior</h1>
<p>CVS Synchronizations can be configured to populate or synchronize
after a restart. To test this, do the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>Create a CVS synchronization of each persisted type (Workspace
and Merge).</li>
<li>Restart and see the page that allows you to populate or
restart.</li>
<li>Choose to remember the operation</li>
<li>Pick an operation and ensure that the behavior is respected</li>
</ol>
You will want to repeat these steps for both operations (Synchronize and
Populate) and you should also repeat them using the preference page
available from the view menu in the Synchronize view.

<h3>Committing changes to existing files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Edit some existing files in a CVS project</li>
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator</li>
<li>The commit dialog should show a preview of the files that are
to be committed and allow a commit comment to be entered.</li>
</ol>
<p>Some things to try:
<ul>
<li>Committing a project (or selected resources) that contain no
changes will prompt to indicate this.</li>
<li>Files can be removed from the preview area and these will be
excluded from the commit.</li>
<li>Clicking OK without entering a comment should prompt.</li>
<li>Emptying the preview area will disable the Finish and show a
"no changes" message.</li>
<li>Try different page layouts (compressed, tree and flat)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Committing new files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Add a few new files to a project including some with unknown
extensions and some with no extensions.</li>
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator</li>
<li>The first page of the commit wizard will allow you to
configure the file types for any new files whose content type cannot be
determined.</li>
<ul>
<li>Configure some to be remembered and others to be only applied

<li>Share of existing project</li>
<li>Switch to Another Branch or Versions</li>
<li>Tag with Existing</li>
<li>Tag as Version</li>
</ul>
<p>In each of these places, typing in the tag text field will filter
the list of shown tags. The option to Refresh and Configure tags should
also be present. Refreshing behavior should be as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>If an auto-refresh file (.project by default) exists and has
tags, the tags are obtained from the file.</li>
<li>If there is no auto-refresh file, the log command is used to
determine if there are any tags in the files that are direct children
of the remote folder.</li>
<li>If no tags are found, the user is prompted to either perform a
deep log to find any tags or configure the tags manually.</li>

<h2>Tag Caching</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 M4<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
Discovered tags are cached locally to improve performance. Caching is
done in the following ways:
<ol>
<li>Tags discovered for local resources are cached with the remote
folder that the resource's project is mapped to.</li>
<li>Tags discovered for remote resources are cached with the
resource if it is a folder or the resource's parent if it is a file.</li>
</ol>
To test this, you can try one or more of the following:
<ol>
<li>Perform Compare With on folders and subfolders in the
repositories view. The first time, you will need to perform a Refresh \
but subsequent times, the tags should be cached.</li>
<li>Load non-root folders as projects and ensure tags are cached
and obtained properly.</li>
<li>Perform Tag with Existing in the History view and ensure that
tags are obtained from the file</li>

<h2>Performing a Merge</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:14 $</p>
<h3>Scenario 1: One Time Merge</h3>
<p>Using Team>Merge, merge the changes from a branch into HEAD. Once
completed, in the synchronize view, update the incoming changes, resolve
any conflicts and ensure they worked, After updating, redo the same
merge. A no-changes dialog should be presented since the local contents
match the end-point.
<p>Things to try:
<ul>
<li>Use content assist to select an existing branch for the end
tag. A root versions should be automatically found if it exists.</li>
<li>Choose to perform the merge into the local workspace. Ensure
it works with and without a start tag.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Scenario 2: Ongoing Merge</h3>
After performing a one-time merge, pin the entry in the synchronize
view. Release changes to the end point (branch) and synchronize the
merge. The new changes should appear in the synchronize view. Update to
these changes as appropriate.
<h3>Scenario 3: Direct Merge</h3>
Perform a Team>Merge and choose to merge directly into the workspace.
Try both the case with a base tag and without it.
<h3>Removing a Merge</h3>
<p>Delete the merge from the synchronize view using the remove
toolbar button. The merge subscriber should be removed from the view.

<p>Perform the following steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Load the project from CVS (using Checkout or some other means).</li>
<li>Import the zip over the loaded project.</li>
<li>Ensure that the sync states are Outgoing for all resources from the zip file.</li>
<li>Ensure that all folders from the zip file (except new ones)
are marked as in-sync and all files (except new ones) are outgoing changes.</li>
<li>Changing the comparison criteria to compare contents should not contact the server
and should leave only the resources that differ in the sync view. Perform a
Mark As Merged and a Commit on these resources.</li>
<li>Changing the comparison criteria back to revision number will
reveal all the files whose content did not change, perform a Mark as
merged on these resources followed by a Team>Update on the project in

Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:38 $</p>
<p><b>Purpose:</b> Test the two types of refresh behavior available
in the history view</p>
<h3>Automatic Refresh</h3>
<p>When a local file is modified and saved, a refresh event is sent
out and the history view should show the newest revision. This will work
for both local history and CVS history files. (CVS files need to have
the history view in the appropriate viewing mode: either "Remote and
Local Revisions" or "Local Revisions".)</p>
<ol>
<li>With a file history in the History View, and the viewer in an
appropriate mode if a CVS file, open an editor on the workspace copy of
the file in the history view.</li>
<li>Edit the file and save.</li>
<li>Verify that a new local revision gets added to the history
view which reflects your change.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Manual Refresh</h3>
<p>There is also a Refresh button on the toolbar. This is mainly
useful for CVS file histories if you want to check if any revisions have
been committed. Note that its not really of any use for local revisions
as they are updated automatically.</p>
<ol>
<li>With a CVS file history in the History View, make a change to
the file and save. (You should see the local version updated in the
history view.)</li>
<li>Commit the file.</li>
<li>Hit the Refresh toolbar button and verify that the new
revision gets displayed in the history view,</li>

<h2>Customizations</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:14 $</p>
<p>You can customize the label decorations via the preference page.
The customizations will take effect when apply is pressed. Resetting the
defaults should work.</p>
<p>You can also configure the font and color used for various
resources states. There should be a link from the CVS label decorations
preference page to the general colors and fonts preference page.</p>

<h2>Decorations in the Synchronize pages</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0 M8<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:15 $</p>
<p>CVS text label decorations should be visible in the CVS
synchronize participants. We don't bother to show the images because the
sync view already shows the state images. The labels should also update
if the 'show change in label' preference is changed.</p>
<p>Also, in the CVS synchronize view the revisions shown are the
<local> - <remote>. So ensure that the correct remote is
shown.</p>
<p>Ensure that when the local tag changes the decorators in the sync
view and navigator get updated.</p>
<p>Ensure that there is no flicker in packages view when CVS
decorator updated on commit, update.</p>

<h2>Timings</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/23 13:19:14 $</p>
This section contains various timing results and comparisons.
<h3>Overview</h3>
The purpose of this section is to provide a small set of tests that can
be used to benchmark the Eclipse CVS client. The areas tested are:
<ol>
<li>Checkout</li>
<li>Synchronizing</li>
<li>Updating</li>
</ol>
<h3>Setup</h3>
The following should be considered when obtaining timings:
<ul>
<li>The Progress view in verbose mode can add 20% or more to
times. In regular mode, it can still add a bit to the time. For these
timings, the view was open but hidden.</li>
<li>The Console view can add as much as 20% to times. For these
tests, the console was turned off entirely.</li>
<li>Running an Eclipse operation several times will "warm-up" the
code path due to JIT. The timings for Eclipse were usually the second
or third timing obtained.</li>
</ul>
The following numbers were obtained on a 2.8GHz PC running GTK, Sun 14.2
with autobuild off and operations run in the foreground. The project
used was org.eclipse.jdt.tests.refactoring. It has a large number of
folders and files which give interesting times. The date the timings
were obtained were May 31st, 2004 so similar numbers can be obtained for
comparison using the project snapshot at that time (which can be
obtained using a Date tag).
<h3>Checkout</h3>
Checkout of org.eclipse.jdt.tests.refactoring as of 2004/05/31. The
timings are in "mm:ss" and were obtained by observation (i.e.
stopwatch).
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 3:00 to 3:30 (several timings)
<ul>
<li>Timings increased slightly with progress view visible and
considerably with progress view in verbose mode.
</ul>
</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 3:00 (1 timing)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Synchronize</h3>
Synchronizing of org.eclipse.jdt.tests.refactoring as of 2004/05/31. The
timings are in "mm:ss" and were obtained by observation (i.e.
stopwatch).
<h4>Synchronize with no changes</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 0:45</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 0:42 ("cvs -n update")</li>
</ul>
<h4>Synchronize with all outgoing, no incoming</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 1:00</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 2:20 ("cvs -n update")</li>
</ul>
<h4>Synchronize with incoming changes</h4>
Incoming changes were simulated by loading version v20040106 and then
removing the tag (using a special utility action). This resulted in 393
incoming changes.
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 0:55</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 0:45 ("cvs -n update")</li>
</ul>
The timing for Eclipse also includes the status command to fetch the
revisions for the 393 incoming changes.
<h3>Update</h3>
These timings were obtained using Team>Update for Eclipse and "cvs
update ." for the CLI.
<h4>Update with no changes</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 1:15, 1:25 (2 timings)</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 1:15 ("cvs update")</li>
</ul>
<h4>Update with all false outgoing changes (using touch)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 2:20</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 2:20</li>
</ul>
<h4>Update with incoming changes</h4>
Incoming changes were simulated by loading version v20040106 and then
removing the tag (using a special utility action). This resulted in 393
incoming changes.
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 1:55</li>
<li>CLI over pserver: 1:55 ("cvs -n update")</li>
</ul>

<h2>Resource Data Structures</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
This section contains results on memory footprint of CVS in the Core
resource plugin data structures. More specifically, CVS uses the session
and persistent property caches along with the synchronizer.
<h3>CVS Workspace Sync info caches</h3>
Checking of the cache usage requires the use of the Core spy tools. To
obtain the memory footprint, perform the following steps.
<ol>
<li>Install the Core Spy Tools</li>
<li>Launch Eclipse</li>
<li>Checkout several projects</li>
<li>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint. At the
time of writing, CVS is the main user of these structures. In future
test, ensure that others are not contributing to the tally.</li>
<li>Disconnect all the projects</li>
<li>The Element Tree Spy memory footprint should be reduced
accordingly</li>
</ol>
The following snapshot of the resource element tree was taken after
checking out all of the projects (294 as of 2004/05/31) in
dev.eclipse.org.

<h3>CVS Merge memory usage</h3>
Merging in CVS makes use of the Core synchronizer. Perform the following
steps with the Core Spy Tool installed to ensure proper memory
management.
<ol>
<li>Checkout one or more projects</li>
<li>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint.</li>
<li>Perform a merge</li>
<li>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint. The
only increase should be in the synchronizer.</li>
<li>Remove the merge from the sync view</li>
<li>The Element Tree Spy memory footprint should be reduced
accordingly</li>

<h3>Removing synchronize view entries</h3>
<ol>
<li>Start with an empty synchronize view</li>
<li>Create an entry in the Synchronize view for each of the
following cases:
<ul>
<li>Team>Synchronize</li>
<li>Compare with>Branch or Version</li>
<li>Team>Merge</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Open the context menu</li>
<li>Select all mode and layout combinations</li>
<li>Remove the entry (making the sync view empty).</li>
<li>Select an item in another view</li>
<li>Using a memory profiler, look for instances of the following
classes:
<ul>
<li>ISynchronizeParticipant
<li>SynchronizeModelElement
<li>SyncInfo/SyncInfoSet
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<h3>Closing the Synchronize view</h3>
Close all instances of the Synchronize view and ensure that no instances
of ISynchronizeView remain.

<h2>Team Data Structures</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
The Team component provides several data structures that can be used to
cache resource synchronization state and resource variants for improved
performance. The plan is to provide tools to interrogate these caches in
the 3.1 timeframe. These caches include:
<ul>
<li>Resource Variant cache</li>
<li>SubsciberParticipant/SyncInfoSet</li>
</ul>
<h3>CVS Specific data structures</h3>
CVS uses several caches to improve performance. Tools should be provided
to query the size of these caches as well.
<ul>
<li>Console (caches contents while not visible)</li>
<li>Resource History View log entry cache</li>
<li>Commit Sets log entry cache</li>
</ul>

<p>Test that authentication, connection errors result in appropriate
error messages and that these don't pollute the log file or console. To
setup for these tests ensure there are a couple of shared projects in
your workspace.</p>
<ul>
<li>Clear you log file before starting the tests and turn on the
CVS quick diff provider.</li>
<li>Perform an update, a synchronize, and open a file. The log
should be empty and the operations should succeed.</li>
<li>Disconnect from the network.</li>
<li>Open a file. The CVS quick diff will fail and an error should
be in the log.</li>
<li>Synchronize all the shared projects. One error explaining the
failures should be returned.</li>
<li>Change the connection properties of one of the projects to
point to an non-existing location. Then synchronize again, the error
message should indicate that some succeeded and others failed. But the
user should no that the operation did complete and skipped the failed
projects.</li>
<li>Expand the invalid location in the CVS repositories view. An
appropriate error should be shown.</li>
</ul>

<h2>CVS Console</h2>

Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
There are a couple of preferences that controls the behavior and
presentation of the console. To enable this testing, you must first
enable font and label decorations. This can be done by going to
<i>Window/Preferences/Team/CVS/Label Decorations</i>
and checking off
<b>"Enable font and color decorations"</b>
.
<p>These are:</p>
<ul>
<li>font: changing the font should immediately update the sync
view as well as all other views decorated by CVS (ie. Package
Explorer).</li>
<li>font color: message color, error color, command line. Changing
these should immediately update the console view.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Editing Files</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
<p>These tests are to sanity check editors behavior relating to
calling validateEdit. The tests will try to cover all cases where files
are changed by the validateEdit handler and changes are made to the
read-only bit.</p>
<p>These test cases outline the expected behavior of single file
editors in terms of calling validateEdit and handling of error
conditions. All scenarios assume that a repository provider is mapped to
a project and has created a sandbox with files that are marked
read-only.</p>
<p>The <a
href="http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.team.examples.filesystem/">
org.eclipse.team.example.filesystem</a> plugin is a repository provider that
simulates a pessimistic workflow. You can use it to run these tests and
validate (no pun intended) your validateEdit editor support. To use the
pessimistic provider, share a project with the repository provider
called "File System Pessimistic Example" and then you can add to control
the files and checkin/checkout will toggle the read-only bit and touch
the file. You can change the behavior of the validateEdit call via the
pessimistic preference page. For example, you can force the operation to
fail and update contents of the file when checked out.</p>
<p>These tests should be run against the following combinations of
tools:</p>
<ul>
<li>Different repository providers</li>
<li>Single file editors (java, text)</li>
<li>Multiple file editors (manifest editor, ...)</li>
</ul>

<a name="reload_options"><h3>Conflict Resolution Options for Editors</h3>
<pre>
Assumptions:
1. Editors currently maintain a "dirty bit" indicating that the in-memory
buffer has been modified and not yet written to disk. Editors call
validateEdit() the if the file is read-only and the dirty bit is going
from the clean state to the dirty state.
2. Editors can detect when the timestamp of the file has changed on disk
and prompt the user for the appropriate action.
Suggestion:
Editors should maintain a separate bit, "must call validateEdit()". Any
modification of the buffer calls validateEdit() first if this bit is set.
It is initially set when the file is opened if the file is read-only. It
is cleared after a successful call to validateEdit(). It is set again
when the editor notices that a file has gone from read/write to read-only.
If the "must call validateEdit()" bit ever goes from the cleared state to
the set state (except for when the file is initially opened), a later
successful call to validateEdit(), should should result in the following
actions:
+-----------+------------------+----------------------------------------+
| Dirty Bit | Timestamp Change | Editor Action |
| State | Detected | |
+-----------+------------------+----------------------------------------+
| 0 | no | No action required |
+-----------+------------------+----------------------------------------+
| 1 | no | No action required |
+-----------+------------------+----------------------------------------+
| 0 | yes | Prompt user for reload/no-reload/merge |
+-----------+------------------+----------------------------------------+
| 1 | yes | Prompt user for reload/no-reload/merge |

<p>These tests are a sanity check that workbench, JDT and other
tools refactorings behave properly with respect to validate Edit. For a
repository providers that supports a pessimistic workflow, the following
scenarios should result in the invocation of the validate edit callback
and should include a UI context which allows prompting.
<p>The following scenarios are stated in terms of the Navigator view
and JDT. Other tools should translate them to a set of scenarios that
make sense for the tool.</p>
