Overview

Abstract

This document is the specification for SCORM Test Harness, a Google Summer Of Code (GSoC) 2011 project. The SCORM test harness will allow automatically running the SCORM ADL test on the latest Moodle Code.

The project mentor is Dan Marsden and the program administrator is Helen Foster.

Context

Currently running the SCORM ADL tests is a time consuming task and requires a specific environment to be set up. The tests can only run in Internet Explorer. This project aims at setting up an automated testing framework that will allow to automatically run the tests on a Microsoft Windows machine running Internet Explorer 8 or higher. On the completion of the tests a HTML page, containing the test's report will be displayed to the user.

The later part of the project itself involves adding and identifying the issues with SCORM 2004 support, reporting them to the Tracker and providing patches for the same. This will help in the ongoing development of providing SCORM 2004 support in Moodle, without breaking compatibility with previous tests.
