Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm developing a GIS application using GeoServer, Openlayers, and SQL Server<br>
at the back-end. I tried to look for resources to write Automated Tests for<br>
functional testing of the application. I will describe an example scenario:<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>OGC compliance suites are examples of functional tests, they assume the</div><div>server has a given data set ready to be served, make requests, check the</div>
<div>results for a set of conditions that must be met.</div><div><br></div><div>However, all the tests suites rely on tests that are not visual, the WMS one</div><div>is the only one that has a few visual tests and it actually asks the human</div>
<div>running the test to compare the images.</div><div><br></div><div>If you have exemplars of how a map should look like you can use</div><div>pdiff (perceptual diff) to compare the expected image with the one actually</div>
<div>returned. I believe MapServer automated tests are done that way.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div>Andrea</div></div><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br>-------------------------------------------------------<br>
