App Packaging "Event"
-
Glad to hear this went well. Would be interested to hear any feedback about how well BBB worked?
-
@thetomester13 as a hint, you started from a test which was still using selenium in a more complex fashion. We didn't know initially how to initialize it correctly and I think copied some code from somewhere.
Here https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/freescout-app/-/blob/master/test/test.js#L38 for example you can see how you could also initialize it, without that jar and whatnot. Maybe moving to that style resolves your chromedriver issue already.
Also make sure that chromedriver and selenium node modules are latest, they are quite picky
-
@jdaviescoates thanks again for setting up the BBB room for us! It worked well on my end, the main thing to note is that once people were there, I didn't see the 'record' button so wasn't able to record the session through BBB (though recorded locally). Weird as we were able to do a test recording just fine ahead of time.
@nebulon ok this is great! I was able to get the versions matching and chromedriver to run properly, but this example is much cleaner and can help me make more progress, thanks!
-
@doodlemania2 would you be willing to post your packaging events on twitter? Or maybe an email list? I really want to attend
-
I wanna make it to the next one of these, just struggling financially due to the pandemic so I'm setting little time away for my hobbies like Cloudron for now. But later in the year I'll be contributing more to these kinds of activities.
️And I second @plusone-nick, we def need at least a way for people that don't have the
app-devlabel on here to be notified of these events. -
@plusone-nick yes of course!
-
For everyone who missed the last session, @thetomester13 made his recording available to us and I've put it into our peertube instance: https://videos.cloudron.io/videos/watch/9d163d31-d24c-4148-bd7e-a42857bcd4a4
There was some transcoding happening and for some reason it feels like it is loading slower for me than other videos, but maybe that is just my setup causing this.

@doodlemania2 awesome much appreciated!

Hey all, I'm hoping to do a Part 2 session from my event coming up during the second week of February (this week is quite busy). I'm thinking Monday (8th), Tuesday (9th), or Wednesday (10th) at the same 5pm EST timeslot - are there preferences or times that would work better than others for people? Also, ideally we can use the same BBB room (if @jdaviescoates would be so kind : ) since that seemed to work out alright, but still open to other suggestions.
Quick update: I was able to get the webdriver working, it was simple versioning issues. Next up is to figure out login to Github and find a decent online xpath tester to prepare for this next session. And don't worry, I'll pick up right from where I left off and walk through the debugging I've had to do solo, before jumping into the actual tests.
-
@thetomester13 very happy for you to use the BBB room on my meet.coop account again
-
Hello again! I've decided on next Wednesday the 10th at 5pm EST for Astral Testing 2.0! I was able to get over the major humps and will talk through those, but still have not completed the tests on my end, as that's the fun part that we'll get to do together
I'll do another screen recording on my end and upload, hopefully we can get the BBB to record as well, but that's out of my hands... otherwise, open to other suggestions about what you liked, didn't like, any changes I can make for this next session for you all to make the most of it!
-
@thetomester13 awesome, will surely join. What was the issue btw with selenium acting strange? Or is that a secret for only the attendees of next stream

it was a simple versioning issue and fix. We were using version 85 of chromedriver but my Chrome installed locally was version 88. Updating the module version worked like magic! -
@thetomester13 sometimes a
npm i --rebuildwould also fix the issue, even without updating the node modules as such! -
@thetomester13 So, is your session at https://ca.meet.coop/b/jos-2xl-ze7-g0q tomorrow?
-
@girish good question! That seems to be up so I'd say yes that's where we'll meet today, but hoping @jdaviescoates can give us the final confirmation.
I'll take this opportunity to send out a final reminder that we're doing an event tonight at 5pm EST and are going to be writing some tests for the Astral App in order for it to become a stable app! Everyone welcome!
-
@thetomester13 5pm EST is midnight in GMT +1, probably gonna watch the rerun, but good luck with the stream!

Go for it! Hopefully the record button will display this time too! (like it did on our initial test!)
-
@msbt thanks! Had to be flexible with work hours on my end
Thanks for the virtual room @jdaviescoates !
