Create a SCORM Test Harness to automatically run the SCORM ADL tests on the latest Moodle code

Running the SCORM ADL tests is currently a time consuming task and requires a specific environment to be set up, this project involves setting up a way to automatically run the tests on the latest Moodle code on an MS Windows machine running IE 8 or higher. Ideally this should be able to run on 1.9Stable and 2.0Stable code bases.

Project Deliverables:

• Script that automates the 1.2 tests and produces an html file with the results of the tests (pass/fail)
• Script that automates some of the ADL SCORM 2004 tests on Moodle (it may not be possible to script all of the 2004 ADL tests due to existing failures)
• Documentation for how to install the scripts on a windows machine and have them run on an automated cycle.
• Based on the results of the SCORM 2004 test harness the student is expected to address some of the 2004 failures by creating bugs in the Moodle Tracker and submitting a patch to resolve the issues reported.
  More detailed requirements will be provided to the successful student.

Requirements for applicants wishing to be considered for the project:

• Must provide the test log and screenshots from a manual run through of the SCORM 1.2 tests (as shown in http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:SCORM_1.2_compliance_test_instructions ) on the latest release of Moodle 2.0Stable
• Must also provide suggestions on products that could be used to write the test harness (Open source options preferred!)

Bonus points for applicants:

• The test log/screen-shots of running the SCORM 2004 tests (not many will be successful as Moodle is NOT 2004 compliant)
