Test execution

The Gazelle Proxy opens channels to capture the messages exchanged between two systems under test. In some cases, in particular when the receiver's role is played by a simulator, the Proxy shall open a channel and make sure it is up and running at any time. It means that the Gazelle Proxy shall automatically open such channels when it starts.

During a peer-to-peer tests, SUT operators execute test cases to verify the interoperability of their solutions. At the same time, we want to ensure that the messages produced by each systems conform to the specifications the SUT claims to implement.

When the test bed captures the messages exchanged between the SUTs, it shall allow the SUT operator to verify their conformance.

The SUT operator has a mean to verify the conformance of the IUA token produced by his SUT acting as an Authorization Server ).

A test report is issued by the tool that gathers relevant information for the SUT operator to correct his SUT if needed: Scope of the testing Found issues along with their location in the token and a pointer to the tested requirement Level of the issue (Error, Warning, Info).

the token should be tested either in a Basic form or in an extended form.

The test designer enters the requirements to be fulfill by the system under test in terms of contraints on the HTTP header.

Prerequisite: 

A dedicated validation profile has been entered in the tool, that checks the requirements implemented by the SUT.

Description of the feature:

The SUT operator has a mean to verify the conformance of the HTTP header produced by his SUT against the implemented specifications. A test report is issued by the tool that gathers relevant information for the SUT operator to correct his SUT if needed:

In order to:

• Have an overview of the test execution and eventually compute some statistics;
• Find a specific test runs;
• Access aborted test runs (they are not visible on the test execution page),

as

To ease the communication between the participants (SUT operators, monitors) involved in a particular test run, when a communication tool is made available by the management team, Gazelle Test Management shall be able to manage channels, and in particular:

Zoho Cliq allows the user to set reminders. We want to make use of this feature to allow him to:

• Be reminded to resume a test after the latter has been paused;
• Schedule a test with one or more partners;
• Be reminded to finalize the review of a test run.

This feature makes use of the Zoho Cliq REST API.

Gazelle Test Management shall offer a webserice API to access the test runs (formerly known as test instances) from external tools. The user shall not be asked to authenticate itself; instead, the calling tool will provide its API key.

Two methods shall be offered:
