When working with hierarchical subject headings, it is sometimes helpful
to do a search for all records with a specific subject, plus
broader/narrower/related subjects. This patch adds a suggestion plugin for
these "exploded" subject searches to Koha. Note that this patch depends on
both bug 8211 AND bug 8209.
To test (NOTE: this test plan covers both 8211 and 8726):
1) Make sure you have a bunch of hierarchical subjects. I created
geographical subjects for "Arizona," "United States," and "Phoenix,"
and linked them together using 551s, and made sure I had a half
dozen records linking to each (but not all to all three).
2) Do a search for su-br:Arizona (or choose "Subject and broader terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona" and the
records with the subject "United States"
3) Do a search for su-na:Arizona (or choose "Subject and narrower terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona" and the
records with the subject "Phoenix"
4) Do a search for su-rl:Arizona (or choose "Subject and related terms"
on the advanced search screen with "more options" displayed), and
check that you get the records with the subject "Arizona," the
records with the subject "United States," and the records with the
subject "Phoenix"
5) Ensure that other searches still work (keyword, subject, ccl,
whatever)
6) Use "Did you mean?" page in admin section to enable ExplodedTerms
plugin
7) Do a keyword search on the OPAC, confirm that searching for exploded
terms is suggested.
8) Do a subject search on the OPAC, confirm that searching for exploded
terms is suggested.
9) Do a non-keyword, non-subject search on the OPAC, confirm that
searching for exploded terms is NOT suggested.
10) Disable ExplodedTerms plugin and enable AuthorityFile plugin.
11) Do search on OPAC, confirm suggestions are made from authority file.
