First I want to thank for ASTest - I just used it with System Events to create simple gui testing for a small app. However installing it is not fun at all - unless I am missing something. This is what I did: 1. Found ASTest with google, searching for unit testing applescript 1. Installed ASTest 2. Find that it does not compile 3. Find in the manual that it requires some libraries that I never heard about 4. Find applemods site by searching google again 5. Download dependencies for ASTest 6. Find that it still will not compile, because I have to get dependencies for its own dependencies 7. Download more libraries 8. Finally its running This is insane installation. It should work like this: 1. Download installer package 2. Install 3. It works All the applemods libraries are few MB download - one installer package that install everything will be just fine. Take Python as example - you get big library (batteries included) usable for most tasks. I think that applemods should take this approach. Best Regards, Nir Soffer |
