<h1>Eclipse Team and CVS 3.2 Test Plan</h1>
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.<br>
<br>
For a more verbose explanation of the CVS plug-in please refer to our
documentation.<br>
<h2>CVS Server Versions</h2>
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
flavours. The current server lineup is:<br>
<br>
Latest Stable: <span style="font-weight: bold;">1.11.21</span><br>
Latest Development: <span style="font-weight: bold;">1.12.13</span><br>
CVS NT: <strong>2.5.03.2260</strong>
<h2>Testing Tips</h2>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">test corner cases</font></li>

<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>

<h1>Repositories View</h1>
<a name="repoview_basics00001.html">
<h2>Basics</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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:
<ul>
<li>Create repo locations for different connection types: ext, pserver, extssh.
<li>Create a repo location ny pasting a location string into the host field (e.g.
:pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse).
<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>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.
</ul>
</p>
<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 availabel 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>
</ol>

<h2>Checkout Wizard</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</p><body>
<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 wiard is also available from the context menu of the repositories view
as the Checkout As menu item.</p>
<p>The following variants should be tested:
<ul>
<li>Create a new repository location and checkout a project entirely from the wizard.
<li>Check out a tag
<li>Check out a project that does not contain a .project file. This should result in
a second wizard that allows projct configuration (e.g. Java project).
</ul>
<h3>Repositories View Checkout Variants</h3>
These test 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

<p>
You should be able to select a project/folder/resource and compare againts
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>should be able to open the history view and link in to the opened compare editor
<li>the compare editor should update when changes are made to the local file in some other context (e.g other editor, refactoring).
</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>Edit the local and browse to another file. You should be prompted to save the changes.
<li>Press the cancel button with changes, you should be prompted.

<h2>Performing a Synchronize</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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.
<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><b>Using the Synchronize button in toolbar of the Synchronize view</b>:
All projects should be selected.
<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><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.
</ul>
</p>
<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 supress the post-synchronize dialog.
<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>
</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>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</p>
<h3>Synchronize View Modes</h3>
<p>
Ensure that choosing direction modes result in proper filtering.
<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>
<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:
<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 Jva 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>
<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>

<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 Override and Update</p>

<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>

Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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.

<h2>Change Sets Layout</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 M2<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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. Perferably
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.
<p>
<li>With some nodes expanded and additionally one or more selected,
disable Change Sets. The same nodes should remain expanded and selected.
<p>
<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 apears in multiple sets, it will no longer be expanded).
</ol>
You should also confirm that markers and conflicts are properly propogated to
parent nodes.
<h4>Change Set Layouts</h4>
Now try the various sub-layouts (Flat, Tree and Compressed) and ensure that switching
is performant and that the resulting tree nodes are correct.
<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 seleciton is maintained.
<li>Only Incomign and Outgoing mode shw change sets.
</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, he file remains visible in the Sync view.
<li>Files in a change set can be transfered to another change set
<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>The title and comment of a change set can be changed.
<li>Layout and modes changes work properly for outgoing change sets in the
Synchronize view.
<li>ing one or more files in a change set will result in a commit
dialog that is primed with the comment from the set.
<li>change sets (including which is the default), are preserved accross restarts.
</ol>

<h2>Scenarios</h2>
<p>Since: <br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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. Behaviour
should be identical. The sync view decorator should show you the name of
the branch.</p>
<h3>Using Mixed Tags</h3>
<p>Using Team-&gt;Branch, Replace With-&gt;Branch or Version, and Team-&gt;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>

<h3>Commiting changes to existing files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Edit some existing files in a CVS project
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator
<li>The commit dialog should show a preview of the files that are to be committed and allow a commit comment to be entered.
</ol>
<p>
Some things to try:
<ul>
<li>Committing a project (or selected resources) that contain no changes will prompt to indicate this.
<li>Files can be removed from the preview area and these will be excluded from the commit.
<li>Clicking OK without entering a comment should prompt.
<li>Emptying the preview area will disable the Finish and show a "no changes" message.
<li>Try different page layouts (compressed, tree and flat)
</ul>
<h3>Commiting new files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Add a few new files to a project including some with unknown extensions and some with no extensions.
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator
<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.
<ul>
<li>Configure some to be remembered and others to be only applied to this commit (verify after that this was done properly)
</ul>
<li>Click Next and verify that the content type was determined properly.
<li>Choose to ignore one of the files and verify that the file is removed and the .cvsignore appears.
</ol>
<h3>Commiting files contained in a Change Set</h3>
<ol>
<li>From the Synchronize view, select all the changes from the same Change Set.
<li>Choose Commit and verify that the comment in the commit dialog is the one from the change Set.

<li>Compare with Branch or Version
<li>Share of existing project
<li>Switch to Another Branch or Versions
<li>Tag with Existing
<li>Tag as Version
</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:
<ol>
<li>If an auto-refresh file (.project by default) exists and has tags, the tags are obtained from the file.
<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>If no tags are found, the user is prompted to either perform a deep log to find any tags or configure the
tags manually.
</ol>

<h2>Tag Caching</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 M4<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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 rmeote folder that the resource's project is mapped to.
<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.
</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>Load non-root folders as projects and ensure tags are cached and obtained properly.
<li>Perform Tag with Existing in the History view and ensure that tags are obtained from the file

<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.

Things to try:
<ul>
<li>Use content assist to select an existing branch for the end tag. A root versions should ne automatically found if it exists.
<li>Choose to perform the merge into the local workspace. Ensure it works with and without a start tag.
</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 intro 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>This scenario captures one means of patching. It assumes that a zip file contains
a previous version of a project that has been modified in some way and added to
a zip archive (without CVS directories).</p>
<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>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 the Navigator (Note: This could be handled better).</li>
<li>After the update, ensure the project has no out-of-sync resources.</li>

<h2>Refresh</h2>
<p>Since: 3.2 RC2<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</p>
<p><b>Purpose:</b> Test the two types of refresh behaviour 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".)
<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>
</p>
<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.
<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>Timings</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</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>Synchronizing
<li>Updating
</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>The Console view can add as much as 20% to times. For these tests,
the console was turned off entirely.
<li>Running an eclipse operation several times will "warm-up" the code path
due to JIT. The timings for Eclipse were usually the secodn or third
timing obtained.
</ul>
The following numbers were obtained on a 2.8GHz PC running GTK, Sun 14.2
with autobuild off and operations run in the forground. 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 obervation (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>CLI over pserver: 3:00 (1 timing)
</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 obervation (i.e. stopwatch).
<h4>Synchronize with no changes</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 0:45
<li>CLI over pserver: 0:42 ("cvs -n update")
</ul>
<h4>Synchronize with all outgoing, no incoming</h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 1:00
<li>CLI over pserver: 2:20 ("cvs -n update")
</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>CLI over pserver: 0:45 ("cvs -n update")
</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>CLI over pserver: 1:15 ("cvs update")
</ul>
<h4>Update with all false outgoing changes (using touch) </h4>
<ul>
<li>Eclipse 3.0 over pserver: 2:20
<li>CLI over pserver: 2:20
</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>CLI over pserver: 1:55 ("cvs -n update")

<h2>Resource Data Structures</h2>
<p>Since: 3.0<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/01/19 20:49:23 $</p>
This section contains results on memory footprint of CVS in the Core resource
plugin data structures. More specifically, CVS uses the session and persistant property
caches along with the synchronizer.
<h3>CVS Workspace Sync info caches</h3>
Checking of the cahce 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>Launch Eclipse
<li>Checkout several projects
<li>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint. At the
time of writting, CVS is the main user of these structures. In future
test, ensure that others are not contributing to the tally.
<li>Disconnect all the projects
<li>The Element Tree Spy memory footprint should be reduced accordingly
</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>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint.
<li>Perform a merge
<li>Open the Element Tree Spy to get the memory footprint. The only increase
should be in the synchronizer.
<li>Remove the merge from the sync view
<li>The Element Tree Spy memory footprint should be reduced accordingly

The Team component provides several data strucutures that can be used to
cache resource synchronization state and resource variants for improved
performance. The plan is to provide tools to interogate these caches in the 3.1 timeframe.
These caches include:
<ul>
<li>Resource Variant cache
<li>SubsciberParticipant/SyncInfoSet

<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>Resource History View log entry cache
<li>Commit Sets log entry cache

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:
<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>font color: message color, error color, command line. Changing these should immediatly update the console view.

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:
<ul>
<li>Different repository providers
<li>Single file editors (java, text)
<li>Multiple file editors (manifest editor, ...)
</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 |

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.
