RE: Test automation tools for Forte applications

Mark,
There is a basic automated testing program already
supplied by Forte in the examples. It is called
AutoTest.Pex. It records events and can replay them.
It can be a bit tricky and is a bit basic, but
may have some of the functionality that you want.
This is specifically for window / widget testing.
Hope this helps,

Does anybody have experience with testtools for Forte applications or

We want to test GUIs on NT-clients as well as a batch process running

There is also TestComplete by AutomatedQA but it is of
limited usage because it is not mx.automation aware and in many
difficult cases reverts to dumb mouse X,Y recording.
And there is the upcoming RIATest that will be specifically
designed for Flex using mx.automation. Here is the site:

Reporting tools/components for Forte Applications?

Hi all,
We are looking for what is currently in the marketplace to enhance the reporting
capabilities of Forte. Ideally, we are looking for component libraries that we
could import into our repository. Do these exist?
Currently, I have found six reporting tools that are out there. The tools
are Actuate, Crystal Reports, Report Workshop from Indus Consultancy
Services, Brio Technologies (SQR) VisualBRIO, Visual CyberQuery from
Cyberscience Corp., and Beacon from Brahma Software Solutions FORTify
Components. Are there any others for Forte?
If anyone is currently using one of these Reporting Tools for Forte or any
others, could you give me any indications as to the costs, training, type of
application using the Reporting tool, would you recommend using the product
again, does it use wrappering or API, or is it a component based tool, and any
other relevant information on the product?
Thanks,

Note: We are currently developing in Forte 3.0.L.2. However, we would like
to select a reporting tool/component within the next month. We are in the
initial phases of our next project, an application to be developed in-house.
Probably will have two databases, one for real-time data and another one for
archived data. Probably will need reporting functionality and capabilities for
both real-time data and archived data.

CM Tool for Forte

Hello all,
We are in the process of evaluating software Configuration
Management tool, named Perforce. We are exploring the possibility of using
it for Forte based projects too. Is anyone out there have currently using
this tool with Forte, or have any experience with the possibility of using
any CM tool with Forte development.
Any input in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Charu.

Text based configuration management
Scripts to export/import
Repository creation tools from frozen source set (taken out of CM)
And policies to force users to checkout a full plan (for locking reasons)
when having to change a single class.
There's still the issue where stuff is checked out in CM and as well
in the workshop => inconsistency risk
Cheers,
j-paul

Objet: Re: (forte-users) CM Tool for Forte
Hi,
Just Curious to know how everybody are maintaining different
versions of the
Forte project.
Forte itself provides us with the Team development and cross platform
development features. All we need is Version Controlling.
I presume we wont be maintaining different versions of each
"Forte Project"
in the Version Control.( A Project in Forte will definitely contain more
than 1 Forte Project). If we do this, we need to maintain a chart
of which
version of Forte Project works with another Forte Project and it is messy.
The other way is to baseline the Development Repository itself in the
Version Control. This works fine. But once the repository starts
growing, I
am not sure of the version control software handling GB sized files.
Any IDEAS?
Thanx
Krishna

IS designer a good tool for development applications

Rightnow we are on oracle 7.2 so i wanted to know whether i can use this case tool for all my application development in the future.
waiting for your valuable suggestions

No. In my testing of it I found that it failed to do most of what it claimed it would do. I say avoid it.
It is only good for paving the vendors pocket's with gold.

Hello All,
There are many wonderful Service Provider infrastructure hardening documents available from Cisco CCO and CiscoPress.
I have seen many over my life. Sample documents are:
Mannaging ACLs (7600, CRS IOS-XR, GSR) - automation tools, Document ID: 13608
Network Core Infrastructure Best Practices, Yusuf Bhaiji
Cisco Guide to Harden Cisco IOS XR Devices
Each service provider is recommended to enable and configure rACLs, CoPP, block unnecessary control protocols over the edge, Protect BGP peering with interface ACLs and many many more. Unfortunately there is no tool available from Cisco to configure and maintain all those features.
I would like to ask question to NetPro community. Have you seen any working products from Cisco or Cisco partners for ACL management. Lets keep Cisco Security Manager (CSM) aside. CSM is enterprise oriented tool and supporting routers up to 6500/7600.
I’m looking for this tool for few years already. Looks like other Service Providers are using home made developments. Google recently partially published own tool capirca to a public domain (do search on “ACL Management @ Google” or capirca). This is good start but I is missing ACL deployment module (it is not released by google).
Please share you experience!
Cheers!

Any automated tests or tools for checking if codes are cluster-ready?

Hi folks,
          Are there any tools that can comb through the codes (.java & .jsp) to check for any non-compliances for clustering?
          Or, is there any checklist around to follow if eye-ball checking is required?
          Many thanks.

You can do simple manual testing like:
          1) Start testing the app
          2) Bring down the primary server
          3) Continue testing
          With the above test, end user should not be lose any session information.
          Even if the primary server is down, the Http Sessions should be preserved and should continue uninterrupted.

Searching for a deployment tool for Developer Applications

hey ladies & gentlemen.....I wish that I should've a single setup.exe file to install my appliation developed in Oracle Developer,in addition it should also install the Oracle Database after copying the runtime application files. In this way I wish to facilitate my clients so that they should not call me to re-install the client application if he needs to reinstall the application after a system or windows crash recovery,n he should perform it just like installing another appliation like MS-Office etc. although I know that installing the Oracle Database is a very technical matter,yet I'm looking to fulfill my wish:).thanx.

You can't deploy a Forms application as an .exe. You need to install the runtime and then all the FMX/PLL/MMX files. There are tools that may help you package this up but not to a .exe file - this is why a web deployed application has advantages over client/server.
