XWiki Enterprise 1.4

See what was done in the release notes.

Topic Outcome
  • Bug fixes
    • Go from 240 in JIRA for Core down to 180 on XE 1.4 release date
 Failed, we've reduced only from 240 to 225.
  • Better performance
    • Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks
    • Reduce number of database calls
    • Improved page loading (JV)
    • Make Stats usable on xwiki.org (ThomasM)
 Partly successful. Some performances improvements but far from enough.
  • More automated tests
    • More selenium tests
    • Add tests on Tomcat 6.x as part of the CI build
    • Add tests on Windows and with IE6 and IE7 as part of the CI build
 Almost good. We have added more automated selenium tests but not set up multiple environments.

XWiki Enterprise 1.3

See what was done in the release notes.

Topic Outcome
  • Work on automated testing.
    • Examples:
      • add more selenium tests
      • start evaluating using VMs for setting up different test environments (Oracle + IE, XEM + MySQL, etc)
 A few Selenium tests were added but this was not implemented to the scale required.
  • Clean up
    • Examples:
      • Extract skins into separate modules
      • Factor skin templates all in one place
      • Make it easy for someone to create a new skin
      • Code cleanup for more Javadoc in APIs
 Done.
  • Improved performances
    • Examples:
      • Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks
      • Reduce number of HTTP requests done by the browser (about 50 right now)
      • Reduce number of database calls
 Not done.
  • New Toucan skin.
 Done
  • LDAP improvements: Support for groups
 Done
