[Dev] Engineering status

[Frank Cohen]

Dear PushToTest developers:

We're making very good progress on the bugs and enhancements list for  
PushToTest TestMaker. Here is a summary of today's status:


1) Enhanced Results Analysis (http://bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/188)

Luis Carlos reports the system is working with 9 engines completed.  
Secondary axis has 2 new engines for second axis (periodic timing,  
resources per period of time.)

Luis Carlos clocked the tally performance at 1 mbyte per second.

The current design using JFreeChart introduces a problem for the  
transaction distribution style charts when there are many points to  
plot. For instance, a 150 Mbytes transaction log took 5 seconds for  
the tally to process and JFreeChart did not show data. Luis Carlos  
will build an new engine that asks the user "How many points do you  
want to plot?" and the engine will calculate which points to include  
from the overall transaction log.

Luis Carlos will get started with the GUI implementation today. We  
discussed the design document and came to two conclusions about the  
list in the chart setting dialog: a) The magnifying glass actions  
will be the same as clicking a stored chart definition, b) Remove the  
+ icon from the list. Luis Carlos will document these changes by email.

2) Frank provided Max and Luis Carlos with cvs and bugs accounts.

3) Max added the telnet handler (http://bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/ 
181), tested it and committed the code to cvs.

4) Max finished the sequence/mustrun enhancement (http:// 
bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/193).

5) Max will next work on the new TestGen4Web -> Jython transformer  
utility (http://bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/196).

6) William will work on a design for soapUI support of DPL provided  
data (http://bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/206). The enhancement will  
pass userid/proxy info, pass properties file info, pass dpl data to  
the soapUI runner in TestMaker 5.2.

7) Frank to circulate the Eclipse Plug-in Design document to the  
community for feedback.

Lastly, my expectations for our engineering schedule:

This week: finish 188 UI, finish 196 TestGen4Web transformer, finish  
the soapUI DPL design

Next week: Test 188 and fix any bugs, Eclipse plug-in finished,  
Design the repository and scheduler design (http:// 
bugs.pushtotest.com/ticket/205)

Week after: Start coding the repository (http://bugs.pushtotest.com/ 
ticket/205) and scheduler.

-Frank
