Documentation & Community Testing
by Gaurav Menghani 25 Jul '10

25 Jul '10

Hi, My apologies for not being able to be regular this week. I should get a stable net connection in a couple of days. I have written one informal and illustrated guide [0] to FSoC. It gives an idea to the reader on how to set up and use FSoC. Also, since the documentation is now ready and all the features implemented, I feel it is the right time to open up FSoC to community testing and getting their feedback.

Delays
by Gaurav Menghani 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi, For the past one week I have been experiencing delays in several aspects. The repository issue has been temporarily addressed by keeping the repository address in the database, but not fetching updates. The issues pointed out by Shakthi in [0] currently make it look ineffective to link with any single repository hosting system or even one single CVS for that matter. I spent yesterday hacking with restful_authentication trying to resolve the other issue, but it still does not work. Since all core features have been implemented and the delays are falling in the buffer period set aside, they have not hampered the progress. I had written unit tests for models earlier (not yet committed), and will use them with factory_girl instead of fixtures. Amongst the agendas for the coming week is to render XML apart from HTML and writing a concise documentation on how to test out the project features (for usability tests by the community). Currently, I am having very limited internet connectivity in the past couple of days. Please excuse this, I would keep committing as regularly possible.

Hi, --- On Sun, Jul 11, 2010 at 9:27 AM, Shakthi Kannan <shakthimaan(a)gmail.com> | wrote: | | Gaurav: | | Use factory_girl? | | http://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_girl \-- Just to add to the above, after installing the factory_girl gem, create a directory test/factories in the project sources. For each model, create a file <model>.rb. For example: === test/factories/event.rb === Factory.define :event do |u| u.name 'Testing' u.start_at '2010-07-25 00:00:00' u.end_at '2010-07-29 00:00:00' u.created_at '2010-07-16 00:00:00' u.updated_at '2010-07-16 00:00:00' end === END === In your unit tests, you can create an event object using: event = Factory.build(:event) If you want to override any attributes of the event object, you can pass it as a parameter: event = Factory.build(:event, :name => 'Migration') For every code, constraint that you put in the model, you should have a test case that addresses it. When you modify any model code in future, you will need to re-run the test cases to make sure you didn't break anything. In future, as you write code, make sure you have a test case for it. The test cases are also helpful when you move into normalizing, or optimize or re-factoring your code, as you can re-run the test cases to make sure your changes haven't modified any logic.

Issue in the Code Repository deliverable
by Gaurav Menghani 12 Jul '10

12 Jul '10

Hi, Hooking up with a code repository is a deliverable. I was doing some research regarding the same while trying to fix the logout issue in the tests, about which I talked in the last mail.The system should associate each accepted proposal with a code repository, and periodically notify the mentor when a commit is made, and put up some commit info on the 'Code Repository' section in the Project. The plan was to keep the URL of the .git files, use an appropriate git command periodically to find the commit info remotely, then notify the mentor when a new commit is made, and put that information on the Code Repository page. Though the 'git log' command does well to print the log of a local git repository, I could not find a way to get the logs of a remote repository without cloning it on the local machine, or ssh-ing into the server machine, both of which are not suitable. If you know of a way to do this, please let me know. Currently as a temporary alternative I have written a script that can be run as a cron job periodically to fetch commit info from github repositories using the github API [0]. Though this is an easy alternative, but it would be great if the previous issue can be resolved. [0] http://gist.github.com/464283 Warm Regards, -- Gaurav Menghani

Problem with Testing
by Gaurav Menghani 11 Jul '10

11 Jul '10

Hi, I was writing functional tests for the application. Since, most of the pages require a login, the login_as method is being used to fake the login [1]. The application makes use of the RESTful Authentication plugin for authentication. However, since there are three types of users and each with different level of access rights, I wanted the tests to be run for each type of users with appropriate responses being expected and verified. Thus, requiring login and logout every time the test is to be run for a particular user. However, once login_as is used, I am not able to use login_as for some other user in the test. [0] and users.yml at [3]. What I mean to say is the session persists and I am not able to destroy it. This is what I tried: 1. Simply try calling login_as again. This would over-write the session. 2. Do @request[session_id] = nil explicitly before trying a new user. 3. Call logout_killing_session [2]. But this throws a no method error for 'reset_session' 3.1 Tried including the Authentication, Authorization and Trustification modules, but the issue still remains. 4. Made a logout method in authenticated_test_helper.rb which does @request[session_id] = nil If you know, please let me know how I could fix this.

Redmine Plugins
by Shakthi Kannan 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

Hi, 1. Instead of having "task" and "comment" as two different models, one should be able to add comments for each task, so the history of the discussion for the task can be archived for reference. I'd suggest having a look at "Issues" of redmine [1] for the functionality that I am looking at. You could rename it as "task" in your context. I also suggest you have a look at the plugins used by redmine: http://www.redmine.org/wiki/redmine/Plugin_List It probably contains things that you already need. 2. When one proposes a project/task there is an option to list the time required to complete it. IMO, this must be agreed upon between the mentor and student assigned to the task. Using "aasm" [2] each task must move from one state to another: NEW, ASSIGNED, ACCEPTED, CLOSED, INVALID etc. Regards, SK [1] Redmine. http://www.redmine.org/ [2] Acts As State Machine. http://github.com/rubyist/aasm -- Shakthi Kannan http://www.shakthimaan.com
