IDL2Test

IDL2TEST is a testing tool for CORBA 2.0 interfaces using modern DSM techniques.

What is IDL2TEST

IDL2Test allows to define tests for CORBA 2.0 Interfaces declared as ".idl" files following IDL's grammar as defined in CORBA's specification. This way, every test refers to elements defined inside IDL interfaces.

Elements of IDL2TEST

IDL2TEST is a DSL (Domain Specific Language) developed over the Eclipse Modelling Framework, intended to define tests on CORBA's IDL interfaces. Thus, the elements composing this DSL are:

• IDL2TEST metamodel, that refers IDL models elements
• Code To Model transformation following IDL2TEST's concrete textual syntax
• Model To Code transformation, that generates the actual test code in C++ language

In order for the DSL to be able to refer elements specified inside IDL files, those files have to be transformed to models by means of the C2M transformer defined in IDL2REST.
