[Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

[Steve H. <st...@id...>]

Hi,

I just downloaded Task Forest 1.33 with high hopes and great
expectations--I've been looking for a simple yet powerful
text-file-based job scheduler of this sort for a long time.

I ran `perl Makefile.PL`, `make`, and `make test` but many of the unit
test fail and t/025_Midnight_Ready hangs after printing 1/19. Is this
expected? Did I miss a setup or configuration step?

I'm running perl v5.10.0 on Linux version 2.6.31-17-generic (Ubuntu
9.10). `make test` output included below.

Thanks,
 steve

Re: [Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

Steve:

Thanks for  your detailed email.  There may be a problem with the test case
or something unexpected in  your setup.  I'll try to duplicate this on my
end.  Could you please answer these questions for me?  It might help
identify the problem.

What time zone is your computer set at, and at what time were you running
these tests?  It really shouldn't matter, but it may help identify the
problem.

Were you attempting to install via CPAN or did you download the package and
and manually type in perl Makefile.PL, make and make test?

Did the linux user you were logged in as have write permission to the
current directory you were in?

Thanks,

Aijaz.

Re: [Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

[Steve H. <st...@id...>]

Aijaz,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I think you asked the right questions.
Here is what I have learned this morning.

First the easy questions: I saw the exact same set of failures last
night installing both through CPAN and directly from the tarball. Yes,
all of the relevant directories are writeable.

Now for the news: running the exact same commands this morning (`perl
Makefile.PL`, `make`, & `make test`) does *not* result in the same
failures experienced last night. That is, all of the tests pass,
*until* t/025_Midnight_Ready, which still hangs.

When I was installing TaskForest last night it was between 10pm and
midnight, PST. My system time zone was set to 'America/Los_Angeles'.

If I change my system time zone to 'America/Chicago' then
t/025_Midnight_Ready does not hang, and all test pass with the
exception of t/018TaskForestDaemon, which seems to have errors either
way (after starting the daemon with the suggested `perl -T -I lib
./blib/script/taskforestd --config_file=./taskforestd.test.cfg`).

Interestingly, between 10pm and midnight PST and CST are on different
days. Could this have caused the other `make test` failures?

Looking inside t/families/MIDNIGHT I see:


start => '00:00', tz=>'GMT', days => 'Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat,Sun'

J_005( start=>'04:59')  # 11:59pm Chicago time April 19 2009


Based on the comment this test appears to make the assumption that
4:59 GMT is 11:59pm Chicago time. While this was true April 19, 2009
it is not true today due to Daylight Savings Time not being in effect.

2009-04-09: http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/converted.html?month=4&day=19&year=2009&hour=4&min=55&sec=0&p1=0&p2=64
2010-02-02: http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/converted.html?month=2&day=2&year=2010&hour=4&min=55&sec=0&p1=0&p2=64

Could this have caused t/025_Midnight_Ready to hang?

Thanks,
 steve

Excellent detective work.  Thanks, Steve.  My comments are interspersed
below.

I think the test case has a bug.  The code uses its own function (called
LocalTime, I think) that returns the current time.  That way during testing
I can change the 'current time' so that I can test how the program would
behave in the future.  I think t/025_Midnight_Ready may not be using that
function, and therefore must be confused about what day it is.  I can test
that out pretty easily.

Yes. I'm pretty sure that's it.  I think (hope) it's just a bug in the test
code and not in the actual program itself.  I'll verify that over the next
day or two.  It will take me a few days to  get the new release out
officially, but I'll let you know what I find as I go along.

I think this is ok.  I don't have the code in front of me, but if I remember
correctly, the test case sets the 'current time' to some time on 4/19/2009
(Chicago time).   I'll double check this.

You've given me all the information I need to be able to duplicate this at
home and determine whether there's a bug in the test program or in the
taskforest code itself, or both.

As for the failure of the taskforestd daemon test, that's probably not
related, but I'll gladly help you get that running once these other issues
are resolved.

Thanks again,

Aijaz.

Re: [Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

[Vitor V. <ven...@gm...>]

Hello,

  I had the some problem, on the same platform. I never resolved it.

Re: [Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

[Aijaz A. <en...@us...>]

Vitor:

As I just mentioned to Steve on the mailing list, version 1.34 (available
unofficially at http://www.taskforest.com/TaskForest-1.34.tar.gz ) should
fix this problem.  Please let me know if it doesn't.   I'll release an
official version 1.35 in a few days after I complete the user documentation.

Thanks,

Aijaz.

Steve:

I can confirm that there was a problem with the test cases (as opposed to
the actual program).  I've fixed the test cases, and the scenario you were
describing works now.  There's an unofficial version 1.34 available at
http://www.taskforest.com/TaskForest-1.34.tar.gz

It's unofficial because I had already been working on version 1.34 and it's
got a few other enhancements, including the ability to put a job on hold and
release a hold off a job.  I haven't finished working on the documentation
of these new features and don't want to release the code officially until
the user documentation is done.  I expect it will take a few more days to
complete the docs.  If you would like to, feel free to download 1.34 and
test it out.  I'll release the official version as 1.35.

Thanks again for your help in debugging this.

Aijaz.

Re: [Taskforest-discuss] `make test` failures?

[Steve H. <st...@id...>]

Aijaz,

Thanks for the update. TaskForest-1.34 passes all unit tests which
were previously failing under similar conditions.

Thanks again,
Steve Hulet
