OpacHiddenItems behaviour | Bug 10584
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

I noticed (what I consider) a weird behaviour on OpanHiddenItems. It is effectively described on the commit message introducing it: Bug 10584 - Hide OPAC biblio details if all items are hidden If there are items for a given biblio number, and they are all hidden, then biblio needs to be hidden. If the biblio needs to be hidden, it immediately redirects to a 404.pl page, just as if the biblionumber does not exist. Is this a desired behaviour? Should biblios be hidden if all items they contain are marked to be hidden? I think there might be specific use cases in which this could be useful, but definitely something we should provide a way to opt-in/out I'm looking forwards for your opinions!

Carrots or sticks
by Jonathan Druart 27 Jul '17

27 Jul '17

Hi devs, There is something I tried to think about at the beginning of the release cycle but put it aside as I did not manage to formulate it in a clear way. I would like not to start a "carrot or stick approach", but would prefer a "only carrots on the stick" approach :) First I was thinking about it more for new contributors, but that could be extended to regular contributors as well. I have opened a card on the kanban and listed the few ideas I wrote down 2 months ago. Feel free to continue the list if you like the idea. https://tree.taiga.io/project/joubu-koha-rm-1711/us/130 Any suggestions? Cheers, Jonathan

Reminder: dev meetings are essential
by Jonathan Druart 26 Jul '17

26 Jul '17

Hello everybody, To me, when someone never attends any dev meetings it means: - they do not have specific needs/priorities - they do not have any opinions on how the development team is prioritizing / organising the next developments - they do not want to get involved in the technical decisions Is that true for you as well? Or is it just a matter of timetable? In that case let me know and we will try to find a solution. Cheers, Jonathan

CI improvement
by Jonathan Druart 21 Jul '17

21 Jul '17

Hi devs, Yesterday Tomas and I spent some time to improve our continuous integration server (jenkins.koha-community.org) What's new: - a new task 17.05 has been created - tasks 17.05 and master are now running `prove -r t xt`. This is pretty awesome and a big step for the project, it is the first time ever we have that! - a selenium server is setup before the tests are executed, to make them pass - badge statuses are back on the dashboard! You can add them to your own dashboard if you like [1] Coverage report has jumped from | to % method | 83% (5650/6802) | 85.6% (5848/6830) % conditionals | 41.7% (8744/20957) | 45.2% (9525/21032) % statements | 64.6% (28839/44639) | 67.8% (30414/44852) Total number of tests | 21,330 | 21,911 See results of runs 220 [2] (before the changes, without executing all tests) and 225 [3] (with the changes, all tests from t and xt are executed). I have added a new check to the QA scripts to test POD coverage (QAers, please update). Note: 17.05 is failing for Prices.t (see 18289) and Circulation.t (but that may be a random failures, see bug 18759). TODO: Add more test coverage, add selenium tests, reduce the time execution of the test suite (2 hours now). If you want to help in this area or know what is going on, see the relevant epic on the kanban [4] Cheers, Jonathan [1] For instance the badge status for master is at https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_Master_D8/badge/icon [2] https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_Master_D8/220/clover/ [3] https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_Master_D8/225/clover/ [4] https://tree.taiga.io/project/joubu-koha-rm-1711/epic/32

Issue with qa test tools and debian scripts
by Mark Tompsett 18 Jul '17

18 Jul '17

Greetings, It would seem that some of the debian/scripts directory is not picked up in the qa test tools. As a result bug 18877 was marked as Failed QA, because it generated no meaningful output. Is this a bug in the QA Test tools, or is this really a 18877 Failed QA scenario? GPML, Mark Tompsett
