## The following is a suite of test searches for BibClass
## middleware. It is designed to be run against the sample BibClass
## collection "samplebc", a collection of 4,769 records converted from
## USMARC format for the old University of Michigan Reports series.
##
## Significantly, this test suite lacks a test of searching multiple
## simultaneous indexes. When searching multiple simultaneous indexes,
## you may run into problems such as numbering, where (for example) the
## results numbering restarts in the second index when it should run
## continuously across the indexes. This omission will be corrected after
## test system is installed.
##
## Programmer procedures
## (1) Run these searches from the command-line on the UNIX system to generate
## numbers or reproduce the numbers provided here. Syntax is:
## xpat -e {DLXSROOT}/idx/s/samplebc/samplebc.dd < {DLXSROOT}/idx/s/samplebc/bibtest.srch
## (2) Run the following searches in the test interface to attempt to
## replicate the numbers you got from the command-line. This is typically something
## that can be delegated to other staff, preferably students.

# Searches to be conducted from the command-line
# 1. Simple searches
# 1.1. Simple search for a word with no truncation
region A incl "rocket "
# should produce 100 matches
#
# 1.2. Simple search for a word with truncation
region A incl "rocket"
# should produce 121 matches
#
# 1.3. Simple search for a word with an 8-bit character in the middle
region A incl "f¸r "
# should produce 1 match
#
# 1.4. Simple search for a word with an entity reference in the middle
region A incl "Akademi&illig;&arlig;"
# should produce 1 match
#
# 1.5. Simple search for word in author, with truncation
region A incl (region L incl "bart")
# should produce 54 matches
#
# 1.6. Simple search for word in author, no truncation
region A incl (region L incl "bartman ")
# should produce 43 matches
#
# 1.7. Simple search for word in title, no truncation
# really need something that tests for words at end of field, like
# "word</k>" but everything in UMR has period at end of title/author.
region A incl (region K incl "rocket ")
