Bug 113246

Description Mark A. Sibert 2005-10-20 11:23:32 EDT

If you have a Performance Test or Performance Schedule contained within a 
folder, and rename that folder, the test/schedule will no longer open using 
the Test Navigator.  Right-clicking the test/schedule does not bring up the 
correct context menus either.  If I bring up the plain-old Eclipse Navigator, 
then double-click the test or schedule, they open fine.

Interestingly, Hyades Test Suites do not show the same behavior...  Test 
Navigator has no problem opening them if the containing folder is renamed.

After some debugging, we discovered that the URI of the test/schedule is not 
being updated when the containing folder is renamed.  (This is in the marker, 
for the proxy stuff...)  We also discovered that the Hyades Test Suite was not 
using a proxy -- it was the actualy asset being loaded.  This was quite a 
surprise, but explained the difference in behavior.

The problem also happens if the project is renamed.  Or if the filename of the 
test/schedule is renamed.  (That has to be done outside of Test Navigator, 
like in the Eclipse Navigator, since TN just changes the 'name' attribute when 
you rename a test/schedule.)

So, it seems to me that Test Navigator needs to update the markers for all 
assets contained within a folder when the folder is renamed.

There is also a larger issue of how to handle inter-asset references.  (For 
example, TestInvocations contained within Schedules store the URI of the test, 
which will be invalid if any part of that URI changes.)  That has implications 
across all products, and not just RPT, so hopefully we can come up with a 
common solution.  Essentially, we need the equivalent of "refactoring" java 
classes for our assets.  (As opposed to simply renaming things.)
