Description Balaji Srinivasan CLA 2006-10-19 00:27:05 EDT
For the event extension (for the test log viewer Class: ExecutionEventDetailsPart in package "org.eclipse.ui.forms.base") the variable modelElementLink could be made protected instead of private so that user could extends the log viewer and over ride the hyperlink that is displayed.
Comment 1 Eugene Chan CLA 2006-10-19 10:23:40 EDT
Can you provide more information? Which hyberlink are you referring to? Maybe a screen capture can clear things out. Thanks.
Comment 2 Eugene Chan CLA 2006-10-19 14:01:29 EDT
Assign to Test.UI component for further investigation.
Comment 3 Mark D Dunn CLA 2006-10-19 14:26:18 EDT
Reassign these Test.UI bugs/enhancements to Jerome.

Reassign to the test log maintainer.
Comment 5 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-10-23 10:50:34 EDT

Paul, any possibility we can get this in 4.3.i3?

> Paul, any possibility we can get this in 4.3.i3?

Sorry, normal/P3 defects cannot be argued into 4.3 i3 unless the severity/priority are incorrect.
Comment 9 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-11-01 10:31:39 EST
ACTION ITEM:  Please target to 4.4 and review the priority according to
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/process/development/bugzilla.html by the end of 4.3 i3 (Friday, November 3, 2006).
Comment 10 Bianca Jiang CLA 2006-11-03 16:54:42 EST
Fix in hand but since normal defects are not approved for 4.3, retargeting to 4.4.
Comment 11 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-01-17 09:24:36 EST
Sizing updated as provided by Bianaca.
Comment 12 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-01-26 08:25:26 EST
Targeting to future since not containable in 4.4.
Comment 13 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-01-26 09:01:13 EST
As discussed on this week's Test Project call (January 22, 2007), the Test Project will focus on existing P1 - P2/Blocker - Major and P1/Normal and test creation/automation defects (omitting defects dependant on outstanding features) in TPTP 4.4.  All other Test Project defects have been targeted to future.

If this defect has been targeted to future and you/originator feel it should be completed in 4.4, please provide the necessary reason as a reply to this comment or a post to the Test Project mailing list (tptp-test-tooling-dev@eclipse.org).  We will collectively triage and assess our resources to determine a case-by-case decision. 
Comment 14 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-01-26 09:03:31 EST
Correction:  The Test Project mailing list is tptp-testing-tools-dev@eclipse.org.
Comment 15 Balaji Srinivasan CLA 2007-01-27 03:57:24 EST
The requirement for the defect is for the IBM Product:Rational Functional Tester and it would aid in enhacned user experience. Without this fix, the tptp logs wont look appealing to the user as it would show "inablity to associate" for the hyperlink and no action would take place when user clicks on the hyperlink. Without the fix, tptp logs wont get familiarized and the intergation with products like TM on CQ (ClearQuest Test Manager) (that depends on the TPTP) for logging would get clumsy. Hence the fix need to be in the latest release. It was triaged to 4.4 but later set to future. It would impact the user acceptance of tptp and if user dont use the tptp logs now it would not be in future too.
Comment 16 Balaji Srinivasan CLA 2007-01-27 03:59:20 EST
Also when the fix is in hand, it really crucial for the fix to be contained in the latest release.
Comment 17 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-03-23 16:13:33 EDT
Assigning target.
Comment 18 Bianca Jiang CLA 2007-04-02 11:43:11 EDT
Fix delivered to 4.4.
Comment 19 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-06-02 14:52:09 EDT
Reporter: Please verify and close in preparation for shutting down the TPTP 4.4 release.  Thanks.
Comment 20 Balaji Srinivasan CLA 2008-02-29 00:54:40 EST
I wish to have the hyperlink accessible in the org.eclipse.hyades.test.ui.forms.base.ExecutionEventDetailsPart. The earlier fix holds good but the real fix we need is in ExecutionEventDetailsPart. I also request you to have the same fixed by 4.5 for our product Rational Functional Tester.
thanks
S.Balaji
Comment 21 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2008-02-29 09:54:04 EST
Sorry for the confusion.  The following stable provisional API has been added:

org.eclipse.hyades.test.ui.forms.base.ExecutionEventDetailsPart.getModelElementLink()

org.eclipse.hyades.test.ui.forms.base.ExecutionEventDetailsPart checked in to CVS (HEAD).

Comment 22 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2009-02-25 11:58:40 EST
Closing by default since not closed by the originator in the 7+ months since
being resolved.  

Please reopen if the issue is still present in the latest TPTP release or the
resolution is not correct.
