[kforge-dev] more versions of dependencies

Tue Sep 23 12:54:55 UTC 2008

Continuing to test releases with different versions of dependencies...

DJANGO

There are only two stable releases of Django:

0.96.3
1.0

KForge completely works with 0.96.3, and completely fails with Django 
1.0 (released a few weeks ago).

We never tried to make it work with 1.0 and there are quite a lot of 
changes, so I don't expect this gap will be easily closed.

SQLOBJECT

There are lots of recent stable releases of SQLObject.
http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.4/S/SQLObject/

So far I've written tests for domainmodel against these versions:

0.7.10
0.8.7
0.9.0
0.9.1
0.9.2
0.9.3
0.9.4
0.9.5
0.9.6
0.9.7
0.10.0
0.10.1
0.10.2

Domainmodel fails with 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 (looks like SQLObject is a bit 
broken in these earlier versions, so I'm not sure whether it's worth 
fixing, will review).

All others versions pass. Will fill in the 0.8. and 0.7. series soon. 
But I won't get into the 0.6. series.

Test codes are here:
http://project.kforge.appropriatesoftware.net/foundation/trac/browser/trunk/src/foundation/systems/domainmodeltest.py
http://project.kforge.appropriatesoftware.net/foundation/trac/browser/trunk/src/foundation/systems/kforgetest.py
http://project.kforge.appropriatesoftware.net/foundation/trac/browser/trunk/src/foundation/systems/base.py

Next thing I guess is getting the KForge plugin testing working. Would 
like to repeat the above for different Tracs. But that means firstly 
automating deployment of KForge with an explicit version of Trac. Then 
declaring tests for a series of Trac versions. Have got much of this 
done already, but I don't think I'll do it this afternoon.
