Fawad, Caty, all,
I have a short comment about the tests:
Hi Caty,
Thanks for the review.
Maps/MapTesting/Maps/TestMap - I find it strange that the Maps space is
duplicated
This space exists only for testing. It won't be there for the real application.
I named them so that its easier to know which type of object pages are located
in them (for myself).
MapTesting, Maps, Points - spaces don't have homepages. The users will
navigate to them, since they are present in breadcrumb. So what is the plan?
Simpler paths? or create Homepages for these types of entry?
Since we are in the beta stage now, the whole MapTesting space exists for
testing for developers. It would not be there once we have a stable version
ready for release.
Actually this raises a question, all the more as we also discussed the
importance of having automated functional tests earlier today on #xwiki with
Vincent. For automated testing, we will need sample data, and I'm wondering
where we should store this sample data (and possible scripts or code for
obtaining it). How do other projects deal with test data in such a context? Is
the test data stored in the same repository or in a distinct one? I was looking
for some Solr application test data but could not find it yet. Note that we may
consider the testing area as a set of demos instead in some way, couldn't we?
It would make sense to keep it (just like if it's real test data), and to
provide a navigation across these pages as you suggest it, Caty.
Cheers
Stéphane
Lots of pages that are not hidden. All technical pages needs to be hidden.
Again, these pages are not technical and exist only for testing purposes.
A bit confusing that there are 2 search boxes for the maps, see https://up1.xwikisas.com/#XngcOAZexsKE4DryH2i6zA
Yes, thanks for pointing out. We need to move the search function directly
inside the map. I will look into it once I am done with the facets.
For the search input, its in extremely beta stage. I am still trying to
figure out the macros I have borrowed from SolrSearchMacros. So it will take
time for me to make a more stable version of the facets. I hope I can do that
in due time. :)
Regarding the facets, we need some more user friendly translations and customizations for this kind of UI, see https://up1.xwikisas.com/#TYj_9oLn84Mfp87VnwNgkw
As discussed earlier with Stephane, we are still having issues using the normal
$facetDisplayer so we are using a workaround for testing purposes that's why it
looks like this. More precisely, we are using the
#displaySearchFacetValues($facetValues) macro for now.
Best,
Fawad
