QA » openQA Project

Motivation¶

Feedback from hsehic: We have some presentations referencing a openQA DSL, "Domain specific language" but open.qa doesn't mention it anywhere. we should just mention the term in or near http://open.qa/docs/#_how_to_write_tests or http://open.qa/docs/#_api so that people find it as search term

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: The documentation mentions "openQA DSL"

Suggestions¶

• Just add a sentence that explains that the openQA test API can be referred to as openQA DSL, because in some contexts it can look like a domain specific language
• Comparable examples from the Perl world would be the Mojolicious::Lite DSL, or cpanfiles

Remark¶

You can run generic Perl code in tests. We should not give a false impression about it. This is merely so our documentation isn't blank on the term "DSL" that may be used elsewhere.
