I did not look extensively, it looks like the graphs are created through coding. I was attracted to the Maani.us because it was xml based. This would allow for easy extension. If designed properly it would allow for nant scripts to produce additional charts/reports. That was the driving reason I would it attractive.

After some considerations (mainly printing issues), I've finally decided to go on with a solution based on ZedGraph with static images. It's quite fast and easy to use. Have any of you tried to work on maani charts ? Nicolas MOREL wrote: > Seems like an interesting idea but it's flash...

Seems like an interesting idea but it's flash... Have anyone tested it in a linux environment yet (or any other than windows) ? I began working on an internal statistic page for our company based on the PlotKit framework. It should be portable on any platform, not to mention that it's free and open source. ;) Jay Flowers wrote: > I saw Scott's post > http://www.hanselman.com/blog/OhlohOoLaLaOpenSourceProjectAnalysis.aspx > today.

The words "built correctly as CC.NET tasks" made me think of CC.NET plug-ins while he was more likely speaking of the projects that CC.NET itself builds. I do agree that whether CC.NET is an 1.1 or a 2.0 application does not change its behaviour wrt building projects. Cheers, --Jonathan |

For a start it would require users to install .NET 2.0 on their build servers. Likewise if CCTray were to become a .NET 2.0 application, the same requirement would exist on client machines. Yes, .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0 can coexist peacefully on a machine. However, several things that worked on a machine with only .NET 1.1 installed can suddenly break when 2.0 is installed. For example, NAnt 0.85rc4 will by default run under 2.0 if it is installed. This means that : - unless overriden with the nant.settings.currentframework property, NAnt will use the 2.0 compilers and build 2.0 assemblies; - custom tasks will have to be 2.0-compatible; - the nunit2 task, which runs tests in-process with NAnt, will run tests under 2.0 which may not be what you want. This can be worked around by removing a <supportedRuntime> element in nant.exe.config but it's not entirely obvious. > Your existing projects written in .Net 1.0, .Net 1.1, and .Net 2.0 > will continue to be built correctly as CC.NET tasks, so there's > nothing to worry about there - this change only affects people > altering the CC.NET source code. This is simply not true. If CC.NET is built as a set of 2.0 assemblies, plugins will have to be built as 2.0 assemblies too, because a 1.1 project cannot reference a 2.0 assembly. Unless the types referenced by plugins are somehow extracted so that they can continue to be built under 1.1... What is true is that existing plugins, built against an 1.1 assembly, will load under 2.0 (barring breaking changes to the API of course), and work as expected as long as the .NET APIs they use were not broken in 2.0 (while Microsoft tried hard not to break anything, there are some runtime-breaking changes, some documented and some not). But you would definitely need .NET 2.0 to rebuild them against a 2.0-built CC.NET. Cheers, --Jonathan |

I think this is easiest said as: Does anyone mind if CC.NET source is upgraded to .Net framework 2.0? This means that you won't be able to help contribute to the CC.NET source code using VS 2003, but you will have to use VS 2005, or notepad, or SharpDevelop instead. Your existing projects written in .Net 1.0, .Net 1.1, and .Net 2.0 will continue to be built correctly as CC.NET tasks, so there's nothing to worry about there - this change only affects people altering the CC.NET source code. -- - Norman Rasmussen - Email: no...@ra... - Home page: http://norman.rasmussen.co.za/ |

First off, Thanks for Owen for releasing 1.1, One more large step for the product! I'd like to propose switching to VS 2005 for development. While the impact is minimal on testing, remoting, the core and CCTray; it will be significant for the WebDashboard. Realizing that this would be very useful for some of the fixes like the email-publisher, I know that this would help greatly with some of the dashboard upgrades I would like to accomplish including adding personalization, build progress, and moving to an AJAX model to help with speed and put CC.NET back on top in terms of GUI (Sorry we're falling a bit to TeamCity). If anyone has any large objections to converting to 2005 (aside from the "but I haven't installed it yet" complaint... it really only takes about a half hour.. do it over lunch). Obviously the impact is that you would need to use 2005 to make source changes from this point. I'd be willing to do the conversion if everyone agrees. -Dan Piessens |

Here's the reasoning behind my request: We have a VSS build server using cc.net, but because vss is sooo slow, we're set up some shadow folders on the build server (shadow folders automagically get a copy of everything checked in source control). The cc.net source control blocks are then set up as follows: - Filtered Source : exclude = C:\ - Multi Source : requireChangesFromAll = true - FileSystem : root = shadow folders - VSS : project = $/project/location That way VSS isn't required to do (slow) history checks every time it needs to determine if any changes have been made. The filter also removes file changes from the change list so that only VSS changes are listed. It does mean that cc.net gets in a 'loop' if file changes occur, without any VSS changes :-( Proprosed solution: fix VSS to not use any bandwidth *ahem* Real proposed solution: - Filtered Source : exclude = C:\dev\project - Multi Source : requireChangesFromAll = true - FileSystem Source : root = C:\dev\project (i.e. the shadow folder) - Multi Source : *useFirstChangesOnly = true* - VSS Source : project = $/project/location - Null Source : *alwaysBuild = true* This way, if VSS changes are not detected, a set of 'fake' changes can be generated by the nullsource (add alwaysBuild parameter), and if VSS changes are detected, then the nullsource is not asked for a list of changes.

The Usenet comp.software.testing group comes to mind (available via Google Groups if you don't like NNTP readers). I don't mind NNTP readers. Unfortunately, our system administrator doesn't like them and NNTP is one of many blocked protocols / ports. (I can't even get to the complete MSDN content, because the blogs and forums are blocked!) I'll see if I can get to the group you mention. My main reason for wanting to automate the GUI testing is that we are now at a point where 90+ percent of the "bugs" are caused by inconsistencies between the GUI and the actual state of the application. (I am currently tracking a probable threading problem where the GUI shows one item as being selected, when it isn't). Right now the only "remotable" GUI testing we need would be verification of the installation experience, which will change significantly less frequently than the main application GUI. I think the remainder of the GUI testing I would like to perform can be done on UserControl's, which is (hopefully) limited enough that it won't become a major burden. Thanks for the advice.

The Usenet comp.software.testing group comes to mind (available via Google Groups if you don't like NNTP readers). Personally, I've never been in a situation for which automated GUI testing was worthwhile. The problem is that GUIs are such a changing target, constantly being refined for usability and features. I concur with Steve Mitcham's advice, adding only that it can be very difficult to get developers to program in the MVP paradigm if they're not used to that class of abstract pattern. The typical programmer response is that it's duplication of effort - which it can be, if you don't care about testing. Gary |

I'd like to have better news for you, but all the tools are especially lacking. Especially for anything with a grid on it. My company has been attempting to set these things up for about a year with limited success. The approach we've taken is to use a model-view-presenter type model that generates as thin a layer around the GUI as possible, so that we can verify that the semantics of the GUI are correct without actually having a GUI instantiated (they're hidden behind an interface that we mock for testing purposes). Then the GUI itself is validated knowing that any discrepancies of behavior must occur in the GUI code, which makes it easy to find and fix. =20 From: ccn...@li...
