|
|
|
2.9 Verify the "robustness" of the Search Terms keyword syntax |
2.9.1 |
You should be able to search for phrases (i.e. search terms: <lyrics for "a day in the life">); common words {a,and,be,for,from,has,i,in,is,it,of,on,to,the,not,or} are ignored unless they are a part of a phrase; everything is ANDed; extraneous punctuation {?!;,':+-@#$%^%&*().} should be ignored; whitespace characters {tabs, extra spaces, forced newline characters} should be ignored. Please experiment with the keyword search's features to narrow or tailor your searches, or to try and break the search. It will be difficult to gauge the effectiveness of the search because the databases being searched have their own searching mechanisms and so does the metasearch engine. What we're looking for in this test is to see if there is any combination of search terms that breaks our keyword search and produces an error. These features may currently only be available at UM. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.10 Compare search result metadata |
2.10.1 |
Select a Search Set and enter search terms that will result in a relatively low number of results (100 or less). When the results are returned, keep the pop-up window open and conduct the exact same search with another metasearch engine (Sirsi SingleSearch or UM SearchTools). If the metasearch engine returns search status instead of streaming in results (as UM SearchTools does), try and view results as soon as they become available as this is how our metasearch implementation is working. Compare records retrieved from Sakaibrary with the metasearch engine. In particular, if the same records appear in both result sets, view those records and note any discrepancies in metadata for the records. For example, a commercial metasearch engine may be getting the Date and Source Title information for all records from a certain database where we are not. |
