Base class to help file bug reports for Connector/J.

MySQL AB

appreciates repeatable testcases when reporting bugs, so we're giving you this class to make that job a bit easier (and standarized).

To create a testcase, create a class that inherits from this class (com.mysql.jdbc.util.BaseBugReport), and override the methods 'setUp', 'tearDown' and 'runTest'.

In the 'setUp' method, create code that creates your tables, and populates them with any data needed to demonstrate the bug.

In the 'runTest' method, create code that demonstrates the bug using the tables and data you created in the 'setUp' method.

In the 'tearDown' method, drop any tables you created in the 'setUp' method.

In any of the above three methods, you should use one of the variants of the 'getConnection' method to create a JDBC connection to MySQL, which will use the default JDBC URL of 'jdbc:mysql:///test'.

If you need to use a JDBC URL that is different than 'jdbc:mysql:///test', then override the method 'getUrl' as well.

Use the 'assertTrue' methods to create conditions that must be met in your testcase demonstrating the behavior you are expecting (vs. the behavior you are observing, which is why you are most likely filing a bug report).

Finally, create a 'main' method that creates a new instance of your testcase, and calls the 'run' method:

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        new MyBugReport().run();
 }
 

When filing a potential bug with MySQL Connector/J at http://bugs.mysql.com/ or on the bugs mailing list, please include the code that you have just written using this class.

Constructor Detail

BaseBugReport

public BaseBugReport()
Constructor for this BugReport, sets up JDBC driver used to create connections.

Method Detail

setUp

public abstract void setUp()
                    throws java.lang.Exception
Override this method with code that sets up the testcase for demonstrating your bug (creating tables, populating data, etc).

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs during the 'setUp' phase.

tearDown

public abstract void tearDown()
                       throws java.lang.Exception
Override this method with code that cleans up anything created in the setUp() method.

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs during the 'tearDown' phase.

runTest

public abstract void runTest()
                      throws java.lang.Exception
Override this method with code that demonstrates the bug. This method will be called after setUp(), and before tearDown().

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs during your test run.

run

public final void run()
               throws java.lang.Exception
Runs the testcase by calling the setUp(), runTest() and tearDown() methods. The tearDown() method is run regardless of any errors occuring in the other methods.

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs in any of the aforementioned methods.

assertTrue

protected final void assertTrue(java.lang.String message,
                                boolean condition)
                         throws java.lang.Exception
Throws an exception with the given message if condition evalutates to 'false'.

Parameters:
message - the message to use in the exception
condition - the condition to test for
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if !condition

assertTrue

protected final void assertTrue(boolean condition)
                         throws java.lang.Exception
Throws an exception if condition evalutates to 'false'.

Parameters:
condition - the condition to test for
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - if !condition

getUrl

public java.lang.String getUrl()
Provides the JDBC URL to use to demonstrate the bug. The java.sql.Connection that you use to demonstrate this bug will be provided by the getConnection() method using this URL. The default value is 'jdbc:mysql:///test'


getConnection

public final java.sql.Connection getConnection()
                                        throws java.sql.SQLException
Provides a connection to the JDBC URL specified in getUrl(). If a connection already exists, that connection is returned. Otherwise a new connection is created.

Returns:
a connection to the JDBC URL specified in getUrl().
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if an error is caused while creating the connection.

getNewConnection

public final java.sql.Connection getNewConnection()
                                           throws java.sql.SQLException
Use this if you need to get a new connection for your bug report (i.e. there's more than one connection involved).

Returns:
a new connection to the JDBC URL specified in getUrl().
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if an error is caused while creating the connection.

getConnection

public final java.sql.Connection getConnection(java.lang.String url)
                                        throws java.sql.SQLException
Returns a connection using the given URL.

Parameters:
url - the JDBC URL to use
Returns:
a new java.sql.Connection to the JDBC URL.
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if an error occurs getting the connection.

getConnection

public final java.sql.Connection getConnection(java.lang.String url,
                                               java.util.Properties props)
                                        throws java.sql.SQLException
Returns a connection using the given URL and properties.

Parameters:
