So this leads me to two questions:
1) Are we willing to take the startup hit to show the welcome note?
(especially important since this affects the absolute first time that
the user starts the application - talk about making a first
impression!)
We could do the startup message in a different way which would
probably
be less of a perf hit. An idea that has been floating about would
be to
dump this text into an about dialog (or maybe a new Help > Welcome
dialog).
I would be ok with this. Mimi, Pieter what do you think? Any other
suggestions?
There has also been talk that the welcome note in the calendar is a
minor intrusion to the users calendar, so getting rid of it would
solve
this as well.
2) Do we need to adjust any of the other tests to clear the detail
view
before running the test, or do we adjust our definitions for what
consistitutes each test? (which is to say, the tests now include
something rendered in the detail view) I'm guessing that we want to
adjust our definitions, rather than try to work with an empty
detail view.
I think we should adjust our tests to always have an event
selected. The
reason is that I think typical usage pattern is that you have an event
selected all the time. And we should be measuring real world use
cases.
