1 Platforms Test Specification

Test suite: Creating Java FX SDK Platforms

Purpose: Verify that the FX SDK can be added and used with a FX project.
Setup: Install the JavaFX Plugin

Add a platform via menu

1. Invoke 'Tools | Java Platforms' from the main menu bar.
```
  
```

1. Press Platform... button
```
  
```

1. Add Java Platform dialog appears
```
  
```

1. Select JavaFX Platform and press Next.
```
  
```

1. Give it a name.
```
  
```

1. Leave Java Platform alone (defaults to IDE Java Platform) or set it to a specific Java Platform Version.
```
  
```

1. Browse for and select a JavaFX SDK Folder.
```
  
```

1. Press Finish
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: SDK should be recognized by javafx-sdk, not javafx-sdk/lib
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: A new Platform should be added.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: This platform can be assigned to an existing project via project
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: On deploy as a webstart the .jars from the platform are deployed into the dist\lib directory - verify the contents of the .jars by dates of the files to be sure they are correct.
```
  
```

Add a platform via project

1. Select an existing FX project
```
  
```

1. right click
```
  
```

1. Select properties.
```
  
```

1. Select the Libraries Category
```
  
```

1. Press Manage Platforms... button
```
  
```

1. Add Platform.
```
  
```

1. dialog appears.
```
  
```

1. Select JavaFX Platform and press Next.
```
  
```

1. Give it a name.
```
  
```

1. Leave Java Platform alone.
```
  
```

1. Browse for and select a JavaFX SDK Folder. (folder's \lib). Press Finish
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: SDK should be recognized by javafx-sdk, not javafx-sdk/lib
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: A new Platform should be added.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: This platform can be assigned to an existing project via project
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: On deploy as a webstart the .jars from the platform are deployed into the dist\lib directory - verify the contents of the .jars by dates of the files to be sure they are correct.
```
  
```

It should be forbidden to create JavaFX Platform on top of JDK 5 or less

1. Start the IDE with FX plugin installed with JDK 1.5.
```
  
```

1. Create a new SDK using steps from previous test cases.
```
  
```

1. Create a project (use sample or create your own) that uses the new SDK.
```
  
```

1. Try to compile or run the project. See Result for First Time:
```
  
```

1. Create a new SDK that points to JDK1.6 and uses the FX SDK (Note: The IDE should still be using JKD 1.5)
```
  
```

1. Create a project (use sample or create your own) that uses the new SDK or modify the existing application to use the new SDK.
```
  
```

1. Try to compile or run the project. See Result for Second Time:
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: First time you try to run you should get the message: "You are attempting to build JavaFX Application with JDK 5 (or less)."
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: The second time: The project should build/run without errors.
```
  
```

Test suite: Deleting Java FX SDK Platforms

Purpose:
Setup:

Delete default Platform

1. Invoke 'Tools | Java Platforms' from the main menu bar.
```
  
```

1. .
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: This should be ignored. You should NOT be able to remove the default SDK.
```
  
```

Projects using deleted SDK's should be re-configurable.

1. Create a new SDK.
```
  
```

1. Create a new project that uses the SDK.
```
  
```

1. Delete the SDK.
```
  
```

1. Select the project.
```
  
```

1. Configure project properties.
```
  
```

1. Add new SDK.
```
  
```

1. Compile/run the project.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Deleting the SDK should cause the project to become invalid.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Creating a new SDK (or selecting a existing FX SDK) should make the project valid again.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Project should compile/run correctly.
```
  
```

Test suite: Changing project SDK Platforms

Purpose:
Setup:

Change project to new platform

1. Add new SDK that points to different jdk.
```
  
```

1. Right click project (newly created or old) > Properties and change the SDK to the new one.
```
  
```

1. Compile/run.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Project libraries should be updated accordingly.
```
  
```

Test suite: Adding SDK Platform after project Creation

Purpose:
Setup:

Install plugin without SDK, create project, build, install sdk build

1. Install plugin (without SDK).
```
  
```

1. Create a project.
```
  
```

1. Build it.
```
  
```

1. Install SDK.
```
  
```

1. Configure project to use SDK.
```
  
```

1. Build it.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: First build should fail, second should work without errors.
```
  
```

Install plugin without SDK, point to external sdk, build, run

1. Install plugin (without SDK).
```
  
```

1. Create a project.
```
  
```

1. Add external to IDE SDK.
```
  
```

1. Configure project to point to external sdk.
```
  
```

1. Build it..
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Project should run properly with external SDK.
```
  
```

Test suite: Backwards Compatibility

Purpose: Sometimes the build.properties gets changed for fixes in ways that is not backwards compatible. Need to make sure that these changes are caught and backwards compatibility is not lost.
Setup: Load old stored projects from previous releases

Load a project from the previous release or build and confirm that SDK can be used

1. Open stored project.
```
  
```

1. Configure it to use SDK (if applicable).
```
  
```

1. Build/Run. (May need to clean first)
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Changing to SDK should be error free.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Application should build/run error free.
```
  
```

Test suite: Uninstalling the Java FX SDK

Purpose: The SDK is a module like the FX plugin and can be uninstalled separately.
Setup: .

Uninstall the SDK plugin via plugin manager

1. Tools > Plugins.
```
  
```

1. Installed Tab.
```
  
```

1. Select JavaFX SDK For Windows (or your platform).
```
  
```

1. Press Uninstall button.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Plugin should be uninstalled - IDE should restart.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Other plugins should not be affected.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Tools > Java Platforms should no longer show reference to removed SDK.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Existing projects should show missing reference if they pointed to the SDK.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: Plugin should be available for re-installation.
```
  
```

Test suite: Setting SDK as default.

Purpose: Verify that you can set an SDK as the default.
Setup: .

non-gui way of setting default

1. Set the IDE's default platform by running the IDE with the --jdkhome swith on the command line or by entering the path to the JDK in the netbeans_j2sdkhome property of your INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY/etc/netbeans.conf file.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: When you create a new project the SDK should point to the specified location.
```
  
```

GUI way of setting default - Note: this does not exist, RFE needed

1. NA. This is not possible at this time.
```
  
```

- EXPECTED RESULT: .
```
  
```
