This article illustrates how to create a simple page in sipXconfig, for both user and admin portal.

Notes

Throughout this article I will consider the '/main/sipXconfig' the root directory.

Intro

We use test-driven development (TDD)  in order to create / modify a page or fix a issue.

...

ant test-all -Dtest.name=MyTest

I Admin portal

1. Add a new menu (MyMenu) and a new entry (MyPage) to the new page

a. Add a test for the new menu and the new page

Under '/sipXconfig/web/test' directory, create a new package org.sipfoundry.sipxconfig.site.admin.mypackage and a new test class in this package (MyPageTestUi.java):

...

This test will fail with the following errors:

[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:junit]  Test org.sipfoundry.sipxconfig.site.admin.mypackage.MyPageTestUi FAILED

............
[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:concat] testcase: MyPageTestUi
[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:concat] junit.framework.AssertionFailedErrorjunit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Unable to find link with id [~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:menu.myPage]

b. Create the menu entry and the page

In sipXconfig/web/context/WEB-INF/common/AdminNavigation.html file, add the next piece of code:

...

Now MyPageTestUi test will pass and changes can be seen below:

2. Add tabs for this page

a. Modify the unit test

MyPageTestUi.java

    public void testDisplay() {
        SiteTestHelper.assertNoException(tester);
        SiteTestHelper.assertNoUserError(tester);
        assertLinkPresent("link:first");
        assertLinkPresent("link:second");
    }

If we run this test again, it will fail:

[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:junit]  Test org.sipfoundry.sipxconfig.site.admin.mypackage.MyPageTestUi FAILED

.................................................

[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:concat] testcase: MyPageTestUi
[~lceausescu@itcnetworks.ro:concat] junit.framework.AssertionFailedErrorjunit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Unable to find link with id [link:first]

b. Add the tabs

We will modify previously created files as follows:

...

Now MyPageTestUi test will pass and changes can be seen below:

II User portal

Adding a page in User portal is similar to adding a page in the Admin portal

1. Add a new entry to the new page (MyUserPage)

Under '/sipXconfig/web/test/org/sipfoundry/sipxconfig/site/user_portal' package create a new test class (MyUserPageTestUi.java):

...

Now MyUserPageTestUi test will pass and changes can be seen below:

2. Add tabs for this page

Modify MyUserPageTestUi.java test class:

...
