Test cases without any assertions should fail?

This is just my opinion... but I think test cases without any assertions should either fail or give some warning. I've done this few times before.. I would write a test cases and thought it was passing then realize that I forgot to put any assertions. I should have been more careful, but it would've been nice if those cases failed instead. Test cases without any assertions doesn't make any sense anyway..

there are times where not making an assertion is valid. more important though, we would be breaking compatibility with all other frameworks

  • Test scripts and Test cases

    Hi Team,
    Kindly can you let em know what is the difference between Test Scripts and Test cases with example if possible.
    Regards,
    Vimal

    Hi Vimal,
    A test case  is a set of conditions or variables under which a tester will determine if a requirement or use case upon an application is partially or fully satisfied. It may take many test cases to determine that a requirement is fully satisfied.
    Test cases are often incorrectly referred to as test scripts. Test scripts are lines of code used mainly in automation tools.
    Test script
    A test script is a short program written in a programming language used to test part of the functionality of a software system. A written set of steps that should be performed automatically can also be called a test script, however this is more correctly called a test case.
    Any test that is written as a short program is regarded as an automated test. Test scripts written as a short program can either be written using a special manual functional GUI test tool or in a well-known programming language (such as C++, C#, Tcl, Expect, Java, Perl, Python, or more recently, Ruby). Automated test tools can test many areas of system functionality such as the user interface, performance of the system, the system code and the requirements.
    Automated testing has the advantage over manual testing in that it is easily repeatable, and thus is favoured when doing regression testing. This however is not always the case as automated tests may be poorly written and can break during playback. Since most systems are designed with human interaction in mind, it is good practice that a human tests the system at some point. 
    Test Script defines the actions and pass/fail criteria. For example, if the action is "to enter a valid account number," the expected result is that the data are accepted. Entering an invalid number should yield a particular error message.
    Award Points accordingly.

  • Parallel execution of multiple test cases.

    Does flex unit 4.x version supports for parallel execution of multiple test cases?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    No.
    Flash Player and AIR are single-threaded virtual machines. The only parallel execution one could do is during asynchronous tests, but we do not support that presently for a variety of reasons.

  • Test cases runs correctly on IDE but fails on the test runner

    Hi Guys,
    I have a test case here that works fine on my Mars IDE with RCPTT but fails when I run it via the Maven plugin on the same machine.
    The summary of the test case here is that it auto-generates some java files based on changes done to a DSL type language. You will see that there is a Generator project there that does this. Any changes to the type file will trigger the java file to be regenerated with whatever was defined in the Generator project. On the IDE it all works but when it's run via the test runner, it always fails for some reason.
    One interesting thing to note there is if that test case is run first, it does not fail. I initially suspected that the previous test case might have done something to the AUT workspace/environment but it's difficult to prove. The test case in question does have contexts to clear the workspace and to add projects as well as a context for setting the preferences. I did try removing all the contexts except for the workspace context that contains the project that it needs but the execution result is still the same. If I manually ran the same AUT (extracted somewhere else) with the generated test-runner aut workspace right after and made some changes to the type file, the java files are generated correctly.
    So the problem now is, we're not sure what the test runner is doing differently with the RCPTT IDE in this case. It would seem like the test runner is preventing the AUT from generating the files or there might be an error that prevents the generation from happening.
    I've attached the results folder from the test runner execution and the log file from the from the runner-workspace folder.
    cheers!
    Joseph

    Hi Folks,
    We've found out the cause of the problem and have found out that this is not entirely RCPTT related. Apologies for the disturbance. Marking this as a non-issue.
    cheers!

  • Where should i found the executed automation test cases result in TestResult folder?

    we are using VS2013, i have automated some coded ui test cases and executed from test explorer. once completed i am able to view the test result in the Test explorer window. But I am unable to view in the 'TestResult' folder under project location. (In The
    Test result folder created IN & Out sub folder )  I think it should be create .trx file under TestResult folder.  is there any configuration required.
    Please guide me.
    Thanks in Advance. 

    Hi Divakar,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    As far as I know that when we automated coded ui test cases from VS IDE, it is default that there have no the .trx file be created in the TestResult folder. However, there have a replace workaround that we can automate coded ui test cases using MSTest.exe
    in command line. And then we can get the .trx file be created in the TestResult folder.
    So you can execute the /resultsfile command to get the .trx file using mstest.exe in command line.

  • StorageFile.DeleteAsync() delete file fail without any exception sometimes.

    I develop a test tool to Write a file, then delete it, over and over again.
    Using "await StorageFile.DeleteAsync()" to delete file , sometimes, it run successfully without any exception, but the file to be deleted wasn't deleted as expect. Why the API " StorageFile.DeleteAsync" doesn't work?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Code is as this:
     private async void SDCardFile(String basename)
                while (true)
                    if (this.isStop)
                        return;
                    Boolean isWirteSuc = await WriteSDCardFile(fileName, writeText);//writefile
                    if (isWirteSuc)
                    else
                    Boolean isDeleteSuc = await DeleteSDCardFile(fileName);  //deletefile
                    if (isDeleteSuc )
                    else
     private async Task<bool> DeleteSDCardFile(String filename)
                try
                    StorageFolder externalDevices = KnownFolders.RemovableDevices;
                    StorageFolder sdCard = (await externalDevices.GetFoldersAsync()).FirstOrDefault();
                    StorageFile storageFile = await sdCard.CreateFileAsync(filename, CreationCollisionOption.OpenIfExists);
                    await storageFile.DeleteAsync();
                    return true;
                catch (Exception ex)
                    return false;
    I use a timer to stop the test after 12 hours, during this test, most of the file delete success, but some failed, it still return "true"  from "DeleteSDCardFile(String filename)", so there is no exception, but the file is not deleted,
    I can find these files on SD card.
    Look forward to your answer, thanks for your comments.

  • Payables Open Interface Pgm fails without any error(Very urgent)

    All,
    I'm into an integration project where in I'm pushing Invoice doc from a third party appln to Oracle apps (11.5.10.2) thru payables open interface. The integration is smooth till today. We pushed a record today, but the concurrent neither picks up the data but failed with 'completed error' status. When I delete the same record from the interface, the concurrent runs fine. So we are sure there is some issue with the data in my record. Since concurrent is failed without any reason, from where I can get the log to know what is the actual problem with that record? Pls help me with your inputs.
    Thanks,
    Sen

    Sen,
    To enable trace, please refer to this document (skip the part about generating TKPROF, just check the concurrent request output file if more details about the error are logged after enabling trace and setting the profile option).

    The database log file can be usually found under $ORACLE_HOME/admin/<SID>_<hostname>/bdump directory (or from SQL*Plus, issue "show parameter background_dump_dest").

    Hi again,
    this may be old news to some people, but I just realized we can have the desired benefits I originally listed (encapsulation, reuse, maintainability, security) TODAY by using pipelined functions and using the table() function in Apex report region queries.
    So the report query basically becomes, for example (if get_employees is a pipelined function)
    select * from table(my_package.get_employees(:p1_deptno))
    The only downside compared to a (weakly typed) sys_refcursor is that you have to define the type you are returning in your package spec (or as an SQL type). So it's a bit more coding, but it's still worth it for the other benefits it provides.
    I like Apex even better now! :-)

  • Publishing of the translation for an Iview fails without any notice

    We face the followoing problem with an custom IView in SAP portal:
    The publishing of the translation for an Iview fails without any notice it only works directly after the IView was deployed.
    The translation is done by first generating the translation data then translating to the several languages, marking the data as translated. After that the translation is published via the Translation Worklist Coordination.
    All is done in the Portal under Contenet-Administration->Portal Content Translation, Translation Worklist Coordination and Worklist Translation
    The publishing works directly after deployment of an iView but if one tries to retranslate the translation is saved in the repository but not published. If we delete the translation Worklist and start over again the translations that are not published are still in the generated data but still we can’t publish them.
    There is no Information that the publication failed or anything. In the Worklist it just goes back to normal state where we can again generate the translation data.
    The Iview is a Java IView for the translation a properties file was created and all the words from properties file show up in the generated data from the Worklist.
    We could deploy the Iview every time the translation needs to be changed but the customer wants to do the translation without that step.
    We use the following Versions:
    Sap Portal nw2004s
    sap.com/SAP-JEECOR 7.00 SP10 (1000.7.00.10.0.20061026144500) 20070119122211

  • Oracle XE 10g install fails without any error or message

    Hi,
    I searched many posts in this form, and could not find an answer to my problem.
    Trying to install XE on a server 2003. Installation proceeds successfully almost to an end, and then installation window disappears, without any message, error or warning.
    New ORACLE_HOME, created up to this point, also disappears.
    Logfile has the following entries, C:\WINDOWS\OracleDatabaseXEServerInstall.log:

    I know that the server is behind the firewall, and does not have connection to the internet. It is connected to the network, and other servers and desktops, though.
    Does it have to have access to the outside world to install XE?

    Hi,
    I am having the same issue, both on a windows 2003 server and on a XP client PC. The installation progresses up to a point after which the installation window disappears without errors or messages. I tried as a domain administrator, as a local administrator and removed other Oracle software, rebooted, checked for virus scanners etcetera, withou result.
    I searched through the forums but could not find a solution.
    Any idea's?
