HI everybody !
I don't know how you design your m2m transformations but in my case i
have some input models representing some steps of my transformation and
some launchers (ATL) and to check non regression during my
trasnformation's design I launch all my launchers to check if my
previous steps are correct comparing to my previous results.
When i did that i thought it could be good to have a kind of junit
plugin which will check my steps automatically comparing result of steps
with models reference.
So I started to elaborate a solution and i remembered a tool AT
Lworkflow but if i remember it works only for ATL. And my need is not
only a test need but a workflow need (chain of transformation).
EMF environment has some transformations technologies : M2T, M2M but
there is some common concepts (Files,EObjects,inputs, outputs, chain,
workflow) and i think it could be interesting to have a tool
orchestrating transformations and providing tool to check if the chain
is ok comparing to reference file (where comparison can be made by EMF
Compare, File Compare, Java Compare ...). The goal to this solution is
to be generic with some extension points where technologies can be
registered to them.
Do you know
- an existing plugin doing that ?
- a project proposal which will do that ?
or do you think it could be a good idea for a new project ?
Regards
Tristan FAURE

Hello Tristan,
AFAIK, the project the only project that seems to share some concepts
with your requirements is MWE. More details on
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Modeling_Workflow_Engine_(MWE). As Far As I
Underestood, it should be a workflow engine built on top on EMF, and
then well integrated with other Eclipse and EMF technologies (M2M,
compare...).

At the 0.0.17 release the Atlflow plugin provides an extension point to
implement generators, see
http://opensource.urszeidler.de/ATLflow/html1/extensionpoint s/generator_extension_point.html
..
I also think of integrating OAW and OVT, but as I'm not using them for
the moment I got no free time for it.
But I'm very interested in different use cases.
greetings, urs.

Hi Tristan,
Does not Ant work for your workflow case?
I think most of the technologies you may consider come with a set of Ant
tasks.

HI everybody
thank you for your answers i will check everything when i'll have time :p
in fact my main goal is having a solution to test transformations and
workflow can be the support of this kind of work.
I need to perform a transformation's sequence and for each step
comparing my result to a previous result (declared as reference)
