GDC testing

Tom

presented tests and steps for GDC tests

• GB connection

• metadata and notification processing

• types of failures: valid canonical link; json validation; centre-id mismatch; record deletion; no metadata_id when trying to delete a record; archive zip file of all metadata in GDC; cold start initialization of a GDC from metadata archive; verify that GDC published an OpenMetrics endpoint;

• API functionality: tests that GDC behaves as it should

• Performance tests

There are demo records and test scripts need to be developed

(Maaike) regarding 8.4.2.2 “on successful completion” – MQTT is not required for non-real time data (Tom) test data should have real time and non real time data. (Jeremy) would it be worth putting something in the test that accounts for archive/nonRT data (….)

(Remy) concern about how the metrics are provided (8.4.2.10) - it should not be a requirement.

(Antje) regarding comparing centre-ids (8.4.2.5) - the origin message should be under the right centre-id. (Remy) e.g.. DWD is hosting the node for Israel, DWD is the link but centre-id is related to Israel; (Tom) so in other words, this is not a use case but perhaps this needs to be explicit in the Guide (Remy) at this point I don’t think it needs to be documented (Jeremy) I think it would be worthwhile putting a paragraph in the Guide …”if you are publishing on behalf of another centre… do XZY” (see action 2)

(Remy) the GDC is not subscribed to origin, but is subscribed to the GC? see Action 3 (Remy) I think the GC also subscribes to the origin data (Remy) the GC should cache all the records, there is no notion of core vs recommended

(Jeremy) 2.7.4.2 of the Guide has clear guidance
