E Oracle Portal Provider Test Suite E-1 E Oracle Portal Provider Test Suite The Oracle Portal Provider Test Suite performs sanity, performance, and unit tests on a Web provider without an installation of Oracle Portal or Internet access from the provider machine. The following two types of utilities are available to the user in the test suite: ■ Section E.1, Provider Test Page ■ Section E.2, Test Harness You can download the Oracle Portal Provider Test Suite from the Oracle Portal Developer Kit PDK page on Oracle Technology Network OTN: http:www.oracle.comtechnologyproductsiasportalpdk.html From the Oracle Portlet Developer Kit PDK home page, select Download the PDK-Java TestSuite . E.1 Provider Test Page The provider test page provides a basic sanity test for the provider. It contains a list of portlets, servlet initialization arguments, and the version numbers of the ptlshare and pdkjava libraries. The provider test page is the simplest utility available for testing any Web provider. You access the test page by a URL after deploying the enterprise application or Web application on Oracle WebLogic Server. You test the Web provider by accessing this URL from a browser: http:server:portapplication_nameprovidersprovider_name For example, the PDK-Java comes with a sample application and portlets. The application is encapsulated in a WAR file, which in turn is encapsulated in an EAR file. When you deploy it, Oracle WebLogic Server extracts the files and creates a directory structure with the sample portlets under: MW_HOME\user_projects\domains\DomainName\servers\WLS_PORTAL\tmp\_WL_user\jpdk To view the test page for this provider, you would use this URL: http:server:portjpdkproviderssample When you access the test page, the SOAP servlet validates the XML provider definition, provider.xml, ensuring that the corresponding provider is well formed. This validation is useful for debugging deployment issues with your provider before attempting to register it with a Oracle Portal. If you successfully deploy your Web application on WLS, you receive a success message on the test page.
