    1.1 How to design a framework.

    This is a tough one and can't be fully explained in forum message, need a real worksop because depends a lot of you, your goal, your team, your business, ..

    But in a quick guidance view, below my way of doing :

    - Have technical object to manage things not related to business/TC (e.g. Services, Cmd, System, DB, ..).

    - Have one object dedicated to one app;

            - Build this object as OOP as you can

            - Build it with at least 3 layers; base function not linked to business, base business function and complex business function.

           - Think about useful properties (e.g. Performance or Functiunal exec mode, log level, base path, ..)

           - Use documentation framework (i use jsdoc style comments and a tweaked jsdoc module of nodejs)

           - Include self test in your object

     

    2.2 Usage

    Several techniques,  pseudo-class, closure, useunit, modules ...  depends again of multiples things.

    Personnally i use a closure object method and 2 units (one for global keys mappings/variables, one for business object/methods). And the call from tests cases is made by //USEUNIT
