OK. I'd be happy to hear on what aspects it is more specific, so that I can update our wiki page with useful (and verifiable, updatable) information. > OpenSuse has an intresting architecture, but it's not very usable. What do you mean by "not very usable"? (Same need.) > Autotest is quite complete and very nice. You where right, the NIH > syndrome influenced me. But still, this project is huge.

If we do implement such an infrastructure, then you'll want to plug into it at some point, though. > (Ho, by the way, too sad that I don't know some ruby : > the RSpec and Autotest combo seems to be truely amazing !) > Another (simpler/quicker) solution would be to use lettuce > and QEMU. I think you should now either come up with some (possibly basic) testing system *soon*, or give up with actually *running* the tests. This research was supposed to be done during the community bonding period, and we're now quite far from that. However, please try to emulate a BDD workflow, even if the tests are not run: keep in mind to write your stuff in a way that is easily testable, and please keep up with the scenarios as a way to communicating specs and expectations with the rest of the Tails community :) Cheers, -- intrigeri | GnuPG key @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/intrigeri.asc | OTR fingerprint @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/otr.asc _______________________________________________ tails-dev mailing list tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev
