Week 8 Progress

• CMake Packaging configuration almost completed.
• Packages can be built according to the FOSSology previous packaging structure.
• Initial testing configuration added.
• Ninja build has been fixed.
• To test the current progress, follow the instructions here

Discussions

• How is the testing implemented in FOSSology?

  • Not all agents have testing implemented.
  • There are two types of tests Unit and Functional.
  • At first, the test executable calls multiple PHP scripts to create a test environment. And then tests are executed.
  • Files related to testing and common for all the agents are in src/testing
  • Other tests depends on phpunit. This PHPUnit is generated inside vendor.

• As of now, the testing configurations are hardcoded, what should I do, because it seems the testing configuration will require changes to a lot of files?

  • Decide a deadline for the testing configuration and if until that point there is not very productive implementation then move to the next task that is implementing CI.

• As of now building, installation, and packaging via CMake is working and in a stable state. To create an initial Pull Request. This would also be useful in case of the final evaluation and further testing will be based on this PR itself.

• Fix any bugs or if there is the scope of improvement in Building, Installation and Packaging do that.

Conclusion and Further Plans

• Prepare for an initial PR.
• Fix known bugs and apply Improvements.
• Work on testing configurations.
