Minutes

• 1.5 alpha release?
  • Ben: The hibernate patch and update wizard have both been put into trunk. So 1.5 is ready
  • Mike: alpha should be released now that it is feature complete
  • Darius: we need a minor amount of testing
  • Mike: We don't need to spend a week testing an alpha...it only delays more things
  • Burke: We need to document this process of releasing an alpha
    • whats released when, where, etc. what is tested before/after cutting the 1.5.x branch, before/after 1.5 war release, etc
  • Paul: this discussion needs to focus on what is important...not all the other side issues of us not wanting to release buggy code, etc
  • Burke: the release manager for 1.5 can decide how to do things this time...just document it.
  • Darius: to-test: login, create patient, edit all patient attributes, create user, edit user password, create encounter, add/edit obs in it, void the whole encounter, create and edit a concept
    • Create database via initialization wizard
  • Make sure there is verbage in the release notes about not using this in production environments
• Testathon
  • Justin: spent too much time on Saturday writing @shoulds. Next testathon these should be done ahead of time
  • Justin: Keelhaul, nribeka, glen_, ben, justin were writing tests on Sunday
  • Justin: we need to review the @shoulds and tests to make sure that they are doing what we expect, not just mimicking what the code currently does.
  • Justin: we don't have a convention for the @shoulds yet.
    • Burke: can you add what conventions onto the wiki
  • Ben: We can't expect community members to create @shoulds. once those were up there test creation was speedy
  • Justin: ran out of time to create the @shoulds ahead of time. next time we'll plan an @shouldathon before the testathon
• Burke: TODO (Justin) we need to create a ticket to create a ticket for creating a Selenium framework in openmrs (or tell us why its not feasible)
• Burke: TODO (Justin) modify the archive:Unit Testing with @should wiki page to add the conventions
• Hibernate patch that Darius did
  • The identify generator does a .equals comparison instead of a .isAssignableFrom so identity generators are not able to be extended
  • Darius: the hibenrate dev list never got back to him about the "bug" and so he couldn't create a ticket
  • TODO: (Darius) create a ticket in hibernate for this patch
• liquibase patch that Ben did
  • he hasn't applied all of the first patch
  • TODO (Ben) link to the liquibase ticket for the patch
  • TODO (Ben) make tickets for the other changes
  • Burke: patching other libraries code needs to be a group decision. if the group decides to put off development or to move ahead with the patch
• sync updates
  • getting 1.5 out the door (because it has uuids on it) is part of the process
  • Darius: sync-by-usb-stick has not been tested
  • Burke: we could potentially test sync-by-usb-stick in kenya fairly easily because similar tests were done for remoteformentry
  • Ben: tickets were created for the two tasks that need to happen in trunk (required modules and allow modules to add an interceptor)
  • Darius: maros is studying for the MCAT, so he hasn't been working much on sync module conversion
