Build ID: TPTP4.2.1.1_1127 Steps To Reproduce: 1. Execute a TPTP URL Test on Windows Vista 2. Notice that the execution histories in Test Navigator appear with a time expressed in GMT instead of local time. I think this is bordering on major, because it is a very cumbersome and unpleasant experience for the user to pick the execution results they are interested in when they look at the local time and must figure out what time it is in GMT. More information:
Reassign to Bianca.
The code is now using the ICU4J function to format the timestamp into a display string based on the default locale. This API returns the time based on current locale on WinXP or 2000 or Linux. Looks like the API doesn't quite work on Vista yet. Need to look for alternative to workaround this.
(In reply to comment #2) Thanks Bianca. In the meantime, can you submit a ICU4J defect (http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac)?
During my vista testing, the test log viewer can display the time in the current system time zone. DuWayne, could you try change the Time Zone on your system from "Date and Time" > Change date and time settings... > Change Time Zone, and see if the test log viewer changes the display of time with the current time zone (I restarted eclipse after changing the system time zone)?
So, on two Vista machines, I see the same thing, GMT time stamps even though local time is set to Eastern. Changing the time zone and then changing back to Eastern and re-starting the workbench had no effect. I noticed the same problem on RPT test logs, so it is not just TPTP. It sounded like you were able to make the problem go away somehow that I am unable to reproduce. By default, it seems the problem will be there for our users.
This is a JVM defect that has been fixed in the IBM JVM 1.5 SR4.
Deferring to 4.4 as agreed on Test project meeting on Jan. 15 2007.
Since this issue appears to be a JVM defect, this defect will cover both the GMT time stamp found in both the Test Navigator and Test Log View. Bianca/Duwayne: Do you know if this problem has been found using the Sun JVM?
According to Earnest, the defect is also in the Sun JVM and notes indicated it is targeted to be fixed in Sun JVM 1.6. I'm thinking this JVM time stamp issue be noted somewhere in the install notes or release notes for all versions of TPTP on Vista. The issue will be around for quite some time.
(In reply to comment #9) Agreed. Can you open a Test.Doc defect for the 4.2.2 and 4.3.1 readmes?
Sizing updated as provided by Bianaca.
Targeting to future since cannot be contained in 4.4.
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.
Correction: The Test Project mailing list is tptp-testing-tools-dev@eclipse.org.
Reassigning to the Project Lead.
Using the TPTP 4.5.0 GA driver running IBM JRE 1.5 SR4a on Windows Vista Ultimate, the timestamps are rendered in the local time zone but they are ahead by 1 hour. The Sun JRE 1.5+ needs to be verified for this defect.
As of TPTP 4.6.0, TPTP is in maintenance mode and focusing on improving quality by resolving relevant defects and increasing test coverage through test creation, automation, Build Verification Tests (BVTs), and expanded run-time execution. Since this defect is more than 2 years old, it may be no longer relevant. As part of the TPTP Bugzilla housecleaning process (see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Bugzilla_Housecleaning_Processes), this defect is resolved as WONTFIX. If this defect is still relevant and reproducible in the latest TPTP release (http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/), please re-open.
Reopening since still relevant.
