For the last little while I have been working on revamping the dogtail
tests.
They are now compatible with dogtail-0.6.1 found on fc6.
There is a new base class fryskTestCase, which contains code common
between all tests.
The tests survive the new druid modifications.
Mike will be writing a small test case for the modifications made to the
druid.
I have also been working on reducing the amount of output to the
terminal from the tests and from dogtail, so that it can be incorporated
into make check.
Although the dogtail tests are not part of make check i strongly
recommend that they be run whenever changes to the gui are made to
ensure that they always pass.
I also strongly recommend that from here forth we follow a test driven
development model with the gui. ie all new features should be backed up
with tests which prove that they work. Although this model feels a lot
slower the tests have a lot of benefit when we go through refactoring
and just general regression prevention.
