Hi, I checked the symfony page again and tried to search for hints, where contributing developers are requested to writing tests for patches or whatever. I found nothing! The only thing i found is this very little paragraph: http://trac.symfony-project.org/wiki/HowToContributeToSymfony - "Unit and functional tests ". However there is only mentioned, that existing tests have to pass, but not that one have to write tests on their own. I can imagine, that some ticket authors even do not think about writing tests for their patches.
Maybe an promoted article/tutorial is needed, where the "best practise" of commiting a patch with an according new test is shown ... or you should offer another symfony test day :P Frank Am 05.06.2009 um 08:37 schrieb Fabian Lange: > > Hello, > To be hones, I was never interested in finding a test for a ticket. > In case a test fails, It should be obvious why it should supposed to > pass.
