Behaviour testing

This chapter is meant to check if ARender is working as expected. The tests can be performed on a punctual basis (install, upgrade, etc) as well as continuously to supervise.

Rendition server​

The easiest way to validate ARender Rendition installation is to check the health page, see post installation documentation.

Presentation server​

To test the presentation application, you just need to load the following URL in a new browser tab: http://localhost:8080.

End to end​

Depending on needs, different level of test can be set-up. As a matter of fact, end-to-end test can be done to test the application as a whole. Typically, HTTP GET requests can be used to test the opening of a document and its rendition.

  • Step 1: Using an URL to load a document:

http://localhost:8080/arendergwt/openExternalDocument

This servlet page will return ARender's ID of the document.

You can provide to this servlet any usual URL parameter, ARender is able to use every single connector.

  • Step 2: Loading page test:

http://localhost:8080/arendergwt/imageServlet?uuid=b64_I2RlZmF1bHQ=&pagePosition=1&desc=IM_800_0

This servlet is made to test the generation of a 800px pictures of page one from the document b64_I2RlZmF1bHQ=

In case of complex architecture, this methodology won't be able to test every branch of the platform. Typically, If a rendition farm is defined, it's not possible, using this, to ensure both rendition server have been tested.
