Banner/Data Provider Test Series

The Banner/Data Provider tests included here are modified versions of Scott Amerson's original tests. The tests are modifications because 1) only specific issue-related tests are included and 2) some modifications are required to address new issues or environmental changes since the original test series.

Purpose for this testing

The purpose of these tests is to regression test the provider functionality, which in SmartSite includes:

UserDirectoryProvider

  1. Support for WebDav authentication (via Kerberos)
  2. Provide user account information (e.g. first,last,email,type) from outside data source (e.g. feed from Mothra)

GroupProvider

  1. Assign roles to users who log in to SmartSite that correspond to Sakai internal roles (e.g. Student, Instructor) when applicable. These roles need to be queried from an external data source (e.g. Banner mViews), so that authorization can be determined in real-time.
  2. Define the sites a user belongs to when they log into SmartSite.

CourseManagementProvider

  1. Retrieve dynamic rosters for courses, including updates within specific time interval. Roster updates from Banner need to be displayed in the SmartSite application within a pre-determined acceptable time period as defined by the user acceptance testing group.
  2. Display current instructor(s) course sites and display them as members in the course with appropriate role
  3. Display site membership changes in a course site, including instructor adds/removals/updates

Validate Successful Banner Updates

SAK-337

Test Case Scenario

Description = Test the capability of the CourseMangementProvider to accurately reflect Student adds/drops and Instructor changes within SmartSite UI as viewed in members of a course Roster list.
Category of Testing = functionality, regression
Prerequisite Steps = Current roster and list of students to be added, dropped and Instructor changes to be made via Banner-test given or available to QA for respective courses to be tested.

Test Environment Setup Needed

  • Limited to QA tester with required admin access
  • All login accounts that use kerberos names can be "provided" by the system (e.g. UserDirectoryProvider implemented).
  • Testers have access to testable sites (via SU tool, admin workspace, etc.)
  • Referencing smartsite-test (banner test external, mViews, etc.) for populating course data
  • Run CourseManagement student/instructor add/drop tests on Fall Quarter 2006 courses in coordination with Libby Bullock of Banner team
  • Additional External-Banner Test Data Used for Provider Testing
    • A copy of test data that may be used for these test cases is attached:
