Muz: eh, selenium isn't that brilliant

Muz: so there's no way to test file uploads, no way to poke around at popups unless they have been started through javascript and you got an ID, etc...

Well, for what I'm using it for, it's more than sufficient

Muz: which is?

Morning' ruaok

Test::Mechanize might also meet your needs :)

aCiD2: uptime monitoring, patrolling for fatals and the notices

Seems like Mechanize would do that nicely too

Baah, perl.

Right tool right job is more important than the language

Bah, perl.

http://search.cpan.org/~petdance/Test-WWW-Mecha... that's the badger

I liked using funkload, though the intended use is probably quite different.

hi pronik`

(from selenium.. not from what I was using it for :)

I'm actually pondering whether I can hack at Selenium Grid so I can use my own tests across aa cluster

Muz: with funkload, i run the funkload proxy once... point my browser at it, and all my activity is recorded by funkload that way.

Muz: when I stop the proxy, it spits out a python unittest with all the get/post requests which I can easily hack around in to fix some of the things funkload doesn't pick up on.

Selenium can do all that much, heh.

Muz: oh yes, but the approach is quite different.

warp: i like that approach :)

selenium runs in a real browser, so kind of sucks for commandline/headless testing. but you can probably do much better interface tests with it.

i like the idea of mechanize/unittest because I can just do a quick (heh, "quick") make test before commiting

That's half the point of Selenium though, it's testing across multiple browsers and systems

Or rather, the ability to.

I suppose it's a bit apples and oranges, seeing as Selenium is funtionality testing, not unit testing

Muz: yeah, I just needed to automatically fill in a 30-page form and benchmark that. (yay, we easily managed 1000 concurrent users who spend about 20 seconds on each page reading it).

aCiD2: that said, soon I'll be (hopefully) using Selenium to do functionality testing too. Me using it as I am now is me playing about and testing it out. Seeing how much I can stress it.

It is nice and pretty seeing Firefox windows fly up all over the place. That much must be said.

yeah ;)

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee \o/

Muz: I used it on a windows XP vm with the java server whatever thingy to drive it.

installed an apache on it, and had a page to view the selenium results with a bit of php behind it to trigger re-running the tests.

hm, funkload looks interesting

luks: the tests it dumps may need some hacking if one of the subsequent gets or posts contains information based on the previous request, but in my case that wasn't too much work.

aCiD2: Test shows "MusicBrainz::Server::Track=HASH(0xba443b4)" for the track name when editing, was that what was fixed?

yea

try now

Please come back later

refresh

pronik`: http://github.com/cycles/dot-files/tree/master pushed my .emacs out and related files

I am / have been

interesting

oh fook, forgot to add a file to the repo

weird, why doesn't git show it as untracked :S

ok, updated

If you click 'Edit' and then submit right away, it goes in as an edit.

Or at least, it appears to go in as an edit, not sure what actually would happen database wise.

Yea, it doesn't actually do anything

I need to improve those flash messages, but I need to talk to Catalyst folks about if $c->flash is still a good idea

Maybe a sanity check of sorts should pop up saying that you _didn't actually change anything_ ?

I've heard a lot of controversy about it

The flash?

yea, it should be yellow saying "You did not make any changes"

flash is like sessions, but deleted when you access it (used to display those messages)

whoa whoa howa.

yellow?

Yellow = an edit

sure, red for error, yellow for noticed, green for ok

hmm, good point

But..

ya

well, i need to go make dinner

bbiab

yup

lmao!

haha yea

i meant to say opened :P felt a bit stupid

haha

and welcome back to me after fux0ring my conection tables to not be so in the way

i couldnt connect there for a while and felt right stupid

heh

Apparently you can't have a track name that's longer than 35 characters..I know some CSG people who are going to be in fits...

"Please limit to 35 characters. You submitted 42"

navap: "This single with its forty-one word title continues to hold the record for a #1 single with the longest name on the Billboard charts, due to the legalities requiring each song title be listed." -Wikipedia

Hey, I'm just stating the facts here, legally or otherwise, you can't have a title longer than 35 characters :p

Heh.

Medley: "Intro" / "Venus" / "Sugar, Sugar" / "No Reply" / "I'll Be Back" / "Drive My Car" / "Do You Want to Know a Secret" / "We Can Work It Out" / "I Should Have Known Better" / "Nowhere Man" / "You're Going to Lose That Girl" / "Stars on 45"

wow

Just removing the quotes to fit MB guidelines reduces it by 24 characters.

pbryan: who's that by?

Stars on 45.

navap: ack, good find!

:)

Section 4: Hey Can You Relate / What Time Is Love / Funky Acid Makossa / Shafted Off / And the Break Goes Again / Radio Babylon / Rockit / 900 Number / Spybreak / It's the New Style

I think that's the longest I can think of

and that's shortened, it's missing artists

:)

hi ruaok

hi

wikidocs with media wiki looks much better than with moinmoin, btw.

aCiD2: http://test.musicbrainz.org/release/f1f798cf-7c...

I've got a few more chores to take care of and then we can ask people to sanity check it.

navap: what about it?

aCiD2: I added a ticket for the tags

ok

aww shit

I forgot to try using a comma..

tags are split by commas, do you want line breaks to work too?

heh

haha

Doesn't the current site use spaces?

no

it would be nice to have one of those sexy javascript tag editors

that highlight your tags as you type them

so yea navap, update your ticket or close it :)

I updated it :p

Made it an enhancement asking for something to be written saying it is comma separated

chefkoch_ is now known as chefkoch

pronik`: did you get anywhere with coverart?

aCiD2: I've managed to figure out everything in the regexp except for the m! and the !i, what do those two do?

Is that a morning yawn or an evening yawn? Or just a yawn for the sake of a yawn :p

morning :P

well, morning in the evening

No better time to have a morning, than in the evening ;)

navap: m means match, ! is the separator (perl stuff)

Ah

whaaaaaaaat

harmonic 313 album out \o/

and hudson mohawke is on warp now o.o neat

chefkoch is now known as chefkoch_AW

if you're talking regexes
