[Flickrfs-users] status of tests, and unicode bug

[<rdm...@bi...>]

OK, so I've got the tests to a point where I think I'm comfortable
starting the refactoring work.  The only thing I haven't done that I
want/need is to test uploading an image with non-ASCII chars.  I tried
such a test, but I got a UnicodeDecodeError during the .encode('utf8')
step, which makes no sense to me from anything I've read in the python
docs or from google.  Maybe I didn't write the test correctly (you can
see what I tried, commented out, in the test file).

Can someone with unicode/UTF8 experience check this out and see if you
can find the fix?

Also, I've got some other lines commented out in the tests.  I expected
that after I uploaded the test image it would show up in tags/personal
like it shows up in /stream.  But it didn't.  One time I forgot to delete
the test image before the next run, and that time it _did_ show up.
So at this point I'm assuming its non-appearance is due to some sort
of processing delay at the flickr end.  If anyone knows different,
please let me know.  In the meantime the tests are expecting the
observed behavior.
