Regression testing

Question

I've been asked to automate regression testing. i.e. script the testing needed to make sure that any and all customizations continue working as they should after an upgrade and/or big cross-module deployment.

With 35 custom modules and counting, and practically every stock module modified from APIs to logic hooks to controllers... I'm not sure how to approach this.

Any ideas?

Francesca Shiekh , I just finished building a docker container ( https://github.com/esimonetti/ThornDockerized ) to simplify the use of SugarCRM's REST API testing utilities called Thorn ( https://github.com/sugarcrm/thorn ). That integrates together few things: a working environment with all its dependencies, the actual Thorn library and its dependencies and a sample API test to get you started. Let me know how this goes!
