seaside testing - fileUpload

Hi Liliana

This sounds like integration testing where arguably
one could assume that it will work if your webserver
is set up correctly.

What I am trying to say is that it may not be worth
testing something like this, unless you have a
particular case where mumbled results are being
received....

You could though read a file from the filesystem which
is of a particular type, and construct the WAFile and
send it through and compare this uploaded version vs
the filesystem one.

Hi.

Actually, if I need to import comma delimited files with different number of
columns and need to identify the columns by their titles and read the values
in the correct object properties, I do need to write tests...

Thanks anyway :)

You're right, this is worthy of tests.

But: Those tests should have nothing to do with how the data got on the
server.

Prepare a CSV file and store its contents into a string, which
is what you feed into the parser. Or, if the parser is set up to work
on a stream, feed the parser a readStream on the file.

Don't slow your tests for serious matters down with transport details.
