Either we have a complex framework but simple test cases.
Either we have a simple framework but complex test cases.
We cannot have both simple framework and simple test cases. This is
impossible.
I think it is better to put the complexity in the framework, and enable
people to write test cases easily.
This is why, I wrote ltccompiler.py a python script that takes in input
a .ltc file then translates it in a .ltc.py file .
A .ltc file can only see the ldtp namespace. i.e. : the "from ldtp
import *" is implicit. No other namespace is aloud.
Commands issued in a .ltc file are implicitly enclosed in try...except
block.
I am still working on it, there are many other features I want to put in
in it, but the goal is to absorb the complexity of writing test cases in
the framework and let people write test cases, easily an securely.
I putted some initial documentation on it here :
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AnatomyOfATestCase

I am joining to this email to files :
creating-new-file.ltc and creating-new-file.ltc.py
The relationship beetween the two is the following:




                           -------------
creating-new-file.ltc --> | ltccompiler | ---> creating-new-file.ltc.py
                           -------------

Sandro
