37unmapped

Unmapped values are recorded on the original but have no counterpart the mapping names in the migrated app, so they are listed, not compared, and are not defects. Here: alert titles (2); the Forms record indicator ("Record: 1/2" in the status bar) (5); ORDER_ITEMS.ORDER_ID_FK, a Forms item with no field in the migrated screen (25); the list of open Forms windows (5).

Three runs from a fresh database gave byte-identical diffs. Behaviour that looks odd in the migrated app but is the original's: faithful to the original and waivers. Files: scenario, golden record, target record, diff (JSON).

Scenario steps

Items are addressed by their Forms name (BLOCK.ITEM[row]), the same name in the original and, through the mapping, in the migrated app.

#	Step	Action	Checked on the original
0		Open form `ORDERS`
1	execute query	Click `Toolbar.Execute Query`
2	do not save	Answer the alert No
3	last record	Click `ORDERS.ITEM16`	`ORDERS.ORDER_ID[0]` = 902
4	delete	Click `ORDERS.PUSH_BUTTON9`

Screens, step by step

Left: the original Oracle Forms application, recorded on a virtual display. Right: the migrated application in headless Chromium. Screenshots are evidence only; the comparison works on the recorded values.

Step 0: open ORDERS

Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2), step 00-open — Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2)

Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL), step 00-open — Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL)

Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL), step 01-execute-query — Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL)

Step 2: do not save

Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2), step 02-do-not-save — Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2)

Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL), step 02-do-not-save — Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL)

Step 3: last record

Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2), step 03-last-record — Original (Oracle Forms 14.1.2)

Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL), step 03-last-record — Migrated (.NET, PostgreSQL)

Step 4: delete

Golden record of the original

After each step: the focus, the displayed values that changed, the message line and any alert. The full record (every item of every step, windows, lists of values) is in the JSON file.

No waiver applies to this scenario: every compared value matches or is within the tolerance policy.
