Hi,
it was done exactly that way before Matthew's change. I do not see a
point of changing it, except of the slowness. But let's see, I can be
always wrong.

Correction, after successfully running the user prompter test
I found that it is in fact a functional test and not a unit test
and as such has no place in running under make check (as it involves
user interaction and pops up a series of dialogs).

Instead I'm just moving that from TESTS to noinst_PROGRAMS.

Unfortunately make check still does not pass, due to various
failures in the calendar tests. These same tests actually pass
in our 3.6 based openismus-work branch. At least some of
the failures are due to the regression reported in bug 692802.

Cheers,
-Tristan

I had been trying to avoid that since the beginning ;-)

But... for now let's roll with that until we can fix the other issues.

I've made some fixes and now test cases are working much better
with the workarounds in place. I think the final touch will be
to run the module-prompter test relocated and then make check
will be completely passing again.

I've made four relevant commits, two of them touch outside
the test casing fixture and simply add environment variable
support to allow relocation of various loaded modules (and
this fixes the breakage that is only noticeable where EDS
has _never_ been installed, i.e. regarding missing module
directories in ${prefix}/lib/evolution-data-server).

commits listed below.

commit 04906b9b666b14b30667e7180ac1ae17e5258258
Author: Tristan Van Berkom 
Date:   Mon Feb 25 19:35:20 2013 +0900

test-client-view-operations.c: Now test both direct access and indirect
access

This works properly now since we fixed (or worked around) issues in the
test fixtures. Since we use a separate ESource UID (sandbox) for each
test case this now works properly.

commit 79041f15c816c7f7b9ad90657c928da94e245e6c
Author: Tristan Van Berkom 
Date:   Mon Feb 25 19:33:04 2013 +0900

Some changes to the isolated test fixture

 a.) Setup EDS_REGISTRY_MODULES to use the local cache-reaper module
 b.) Setup EDS_CAMEL_PROVIDER_DIR to use the local provider
 c.) Added "source_name" and use separate ESource uids between tests,
 each test in the suite uses a separate ESource name

Note that 'c' is a stop-gap solution to the problem of not being able to
properly shut-down the whole test D-Bus environment between tests, it
should be removed once we can address that problem.

commit 85afb581c3e5253e77c906c175a93dee5f7705b3
Author: Tristan Van Berkom 
Date:   Mon Feb 25 19:28:04 2013 +0900

Make the Camel provider modules relocatable

This simply adds an environment variable allowing us to load the local
provider from a relocated location in the case we run 'make check'
without installing (this avoids some warnings and helps to isolate the
test environment).

commit 410a56cd3fd1793f6c523e416f2d73c4baf2fc05
Author: Tristan Van Berkom 
Date:   Mon Feb 25 19:26:45 2013 +0900

Make the ESourceRegistryServer modules relocatable like addressbook &
calendar

This simply adds an environment variable allowing us to load registry
modules from a relocated location in the case we run 'make check'
without installing (also ensuring that we test the not-yet-installed
environment properly).

Milan, the factory connection is certainly something to consider here.

While you have a point that, we still wont be able to test it until
EBookClient/ECalClient can properly be finalized (i.e. the bug you
refer to regarding imbalanced reference counts needs also to be
fixed), we still need a way to release that factory connection.

Perhaps, if performance at connection time is very slow, we should
take an approach that the factory connection be released when
all EBookClients are finalized (with a sort of internal ref-counting
logic)... if of course, performance of opening the book is such
a bottleneck.

Hi,
easy to test it with Tristan's [1], isn't it? You'll realize it'll not
help, just the opposite, as I expect that creating a factory connection
for each created book/calendar client only adds more things to be done
on various layers, thus makes opening generally slower.

Just my untested opinion.

The issue with [1] is also related to [2], if it'll help you to properly
fix them both. If you do not like the already available tool for
testing, then I can provide a simple test.c, which will exhibit the same
issue - I only wanted to use something in place, to exhibit the
regression from 3.6 code.

Hi,
CamelMapiStore and CamelMapiTransport are two different objects, you
cannot use CamelMapiStore functions on an instance of
CamelMapiTransport.

With your other changes, you should be touching only
camel-mapi-transport.c, no other file. If you provide *similar* function
implementations for CamelServiceClass, those I wrote about in the
previous email, for CamelMapiTransport, then you can then check of
proper connection status of the CamelMapiTransport, not CamelMapiStore.
