But I think the current problem is that no one is writing tests. There are plenty of opportunities where tests could be implemented and the structure of the code is not always the reason that is holding us back. ;-) > To solve this problem and replace the current mess that is lib/base, I have, > with the help of some other developers, created the following proposal for > the logic to handle request and replace the logic in lib/base > > https://gist.github.com/icewind1991/5685072 > > The goal of the new system is to make a system that is testable, give apps > better options of integrating into core, generally cleaning up some of the > older systems currently in place and hopefully improve the overall quality of > the product we deliver Let's talk about this at the developer meeting. I'm not so happy with another big restructuring that introduced new bugs. Let's fokus on the areas that really need attention.
