Web based tool for new features of given version

abhinivesh.jainMar 1 2016


Oracle introduces hundreds of features in each new version and many features are added in between releases as well. Keeping track of what feature is available where and which one is right one for me is difficult ask. I still see Oracle 7 and 8 running in data centers so keeping track of what happened in 6 generations of oracle database versions is extremely difficult. So my idea is to create a Web based tool with proper navigations and arrangements of features so that one case easily find out what he is looking for. This will save lot of time in scanning thru tones of documents and will help in faster adoption of new features.

e.g. Cross platform backup restore feature of RMAN in 12c is very nice feature for DB migration but people who are thinking from cross platform migration to 12c will rarely use this since they would not have gone thru ~500 features introduced in 12c or might have missed looking at RMAN specific enhancements in 12c so why not have all RMAN related enhancements over several versions in one place.

Thanks,

Abhi

Default Weblogic EM console does provide with in-built testing functionality.
Else, you can give a shot to "SOAPUI (http://www.soapui.org/)" tool.

we also use soapui tests for all the integration tests we create
also have a look at soapuipro, lot's of nice functionality

you can easily connect to the database to verify data, or call other webservices to verify if some save action really got saved, and by retrieving all the data you have several different activities to assert your data (groovy, assertions, etc)
we also use some testing support database packages so we can easily trigger some situations we want to test

for loadtesting we use loadui which will eventually use the soapui projects to generate the load, in loadui you can then create production-like situaties (different amount of calls for different services etc)
