RE: testcases and release stuff...

Well...we probably shouldn't ignore them (because they are in fact errors),
but we have in fact been ignoring them for quite some time...these
particular errors all seem to stem from a locale issue...I remember when
Robert Leftwich wrote the tests, they worked on his box (in Australia), but
they had problems here.

So in answer to your question, they probably should be fixed, but its not
going to kill us if they aren't fixed immediately (they've been this way for
over a year at least). So unless anyone has some spare cycles to look at the
problem (and I'd guess it'd only take an hour or two to find/fix), I'd say
we shouldn't worry about that holding up a new release.

  Nuked!

  Any comments on the test failures?  Any solutions?  Should we ignore them?
Seems to defeat the purpose of the testcases if we do ignore them.

    Hi Jake,

    Yeah, I don't know why TestExample2 is there. I think it may have been
something I originally created way way way back to make sure that JUnit
invoked from Ant would run multiple tests. I see no reason to keep it. Nuke
away.

      Why are there two TestExample classes that are, essentially, identical
but one is called "TestExample.java" in the o.e.b package and the other is
called TestExample2.java in the o.e.b.core package???  I would think that
the latter could be removed.   Is that ok?


      I made some commits to cure some build problems with the testcases.
This was reported by Stefan Armbruster.  Thanks for that :-)


      We still have a problems with the
org.enhydra.barracuda.core.forms.validators.TestDateRangeValidator and the
org.enhydra.barracuda.core.forms.validators.TestDateValidator with 268
failures in the former and 4 failures in the latter.  If any of you forms
experts can look into this today, that would be great!


      We are getting very close to release.so please speak up if you see
problems in the latest CVS of Barracuda.  Also, if you think certain parts
of the docs need to be changed before release, make sure you ping the list
about this.  Again, patches are very welcome.
