Basic encounter tests

We use the word basic to label the following test scenarios.

• test plan generation
• Alpha Tested Features

Two peers exchange a single message in variants.

Scenario	#bytes	Action Sequence	Expected Result	shorthand	Scripts	Tests
CSx (fkna: CoreA)	<100	B opens port; A connects to B; A sends message	B received message	Cab;Sa:1;Eb:1	v1	plan&results
SCx (fkna: CoreA)	<100	A sends message; B opens port; A connects B	B received message	Sa:1;Cab;Eb:1	v1	plan&results

In a real test, x must be replace by a message len. Default is 1: A single byte is sent during a CS test.

test plan generation

Tests must cover all reasonable configurations. Basis tests involve two peers. They should run on the same machine, on different machines with different Operating systems switching positions.

Lets assume three operating systems, like windows, ubuntu and mac (we should better work with specific OS versions). It's enough to get the picture, though. TCP connections are assumed. Peers can run on the same machine - no network would involved. They can run on different machine in the same local network. They can run on different machine in different networks using Internet to communicate.

That would be the test plan for Basic:CS

Test#	Peer A OS	Peer B OS	network
1	windows	windows	non - same machine
2	ubuntu	ubuntu	non - same machine
3	mac	mac	non - same machine
4	windows	windows	local network
5	windows	ubuntu	local network
6	windows	mac	local network
7	ubuntu	windows	local network
8	ubuntu	ubuntu	local network
9	ubuntu	mac	local network
10	mac	windows	local network
11	mac	ubuntu	local network
12	mac	mac	local network
13	windows	windows	Internet
14	windows	ubuntu	Internet
15	windows	mac	Internet
16	ubuntu	windows	Internet
17	ubuntu	ubuntu	Internet
18	ubuntu	mac	Internet
19	mac	windows	Internet
20	mac	ubuntu	Internet
21	mac	mac	Internet

We need the tests for Basic:SC. We also need to test wih different message length.

Let's define:

• Small (default message length: 1)
• Medium: 1000 Byte (appr. 1kbyte)
• Long: 100,000 Byte (appr. 100kbyte)
• Very long: 100,000,000 Byte (appr. 100Mbyte)
