test objects design

Downloaded FitNesse. I am on Mac OS X. Here are some of my quick reference notes on installing it and shutting down (See: StartingAndStoppingFitNesses)

Since I am running a local Apache on port 80 I opened run.sh file and put made it run on port 8080 like so:

java -cp fitnesse.jar fitnesse.FitNesse -p 8080 $1 $2 $3 $4 $5

and then I ran ’sh run.sh’ in terminal (I was in a folder were fitnesse was copied)

Terminal gaves me a message;

FitNesse (20050731) Started...
port:              8080
root page:         fitnesse.wiki.FileSystemPage at ./FitNesseRoot
logger:            none
authenticator:     fitnesse.authentication.PromiscuousAuthenticator
html page factory: fitnesse.html.HtmlPageFactory
page version expiration set to 14 days.

… and FitNesse server was runing on http://localhost:8080/

OK, now in terminal window let’s run ^Z to end. I am not sure if this was a desirable action. Perhaps a better way is to open another Terminal window nad run “java fitnesse.Shutdown” command. Or as I just found out a url “http://localhost:8080/?responder=shutdown”

Tried starting FitNesse again and instead got this message:

FitNesse cannot be started…

Port 8080 is already in use.

Use the -p <port#> command line argument to use a different port.

So perhaps I shouldn’t terminate the session like that

I then ran a url “http://localhost:8080/?responder=shutdown”. It looks from the tests there is a 100 delay (I guess it’s 100 seconds so let’s wait)

After few mintutes I ran ’sh run.sh’ command and got the same error message. I then ran “java fitnesses.Shutdown -p 8080″ and I got this error:

Exception in thread “main” java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: fitnesse/Shutdown

This is strange. H.. Ah Yeah. I used wrong command: Here is the correct one.

java -cp fitnesse.jar fitnesse.Shutdown -p 8080

Now I am waiting and waiting and waiting and I never got the prompt back. System.exit didn’t happen. Not sure why. So I terminated the session window. Opened a new one and restarted the server. It went ok.

Is the trick to close the terminal window to end the session then?
