We have all the threads you want and they operate in the way you describe.

1. the CJS thread, get to know the other yosposters
2. this one, help with the newbies
3. The PL (Programming Language) thread, the try hard programming thread
+
The Picture thread for funny computer

These are the 4 main YOSPOS threads IMO that see lots of posts every day, but there are of course all the individual topic threads like Security, Android/Mac/Windows/Google, Buttcoin, Interviewing, SciFi/Fantasy Nerd poo poo, yosqueer hangout


Also it sounds like your FP post should go in the The PL thread where it would be well received by all the PL weenies.

Every single one of our automated UI tests are now failing because they can't create test accounts and users. Turns out the tests are somehow coupled to the implementation details of our Users API and broke when a change was made to it

Sounds to me like the tests are working correctly? You almost shipped a breaking API change, well caught.

I'm attempting to use rust's async/generators stuff so my delay(1ms) don't block but just yield in the control loop to allow other processor going on and jeez I don't really get how the nb (non blocking) library's await macro interacts with the rust generator await poo poo

tinaun posted:

i've been playing around with this here if you want to take a look - theres multiple ways of handing this stuff. the main problem is that the await!() macro from `nb` is generator aware but not async function aware, as async functions have to notify their runtime that they want to be polled again. the runtime (called an Executor) doesn't poll every future in a loop constantly - it uses a waker to organize scheduling.

I recently discovered the joy of injecting mock services into other services for the purposes of testing. I was all groaning about setting up a user just right so the call to PermissionService.hasBoner() would return true when ButtService.getAvailableButtTypes() called it. Then I just mocked PermissionService so hasBoner() would return what I wanted and injected that into ButtService. It was good poo poo.

My controllers still have too much stuff going on, though, with little coverage.

I have tests for a codebase with no abstractions, no dependency injections. Imagine MVC, but no models so controllers and views are directly touching database tables.
"Tests" are set up by loading XML files which contain database state before the tests are run. These XML files are loaded into a database which is complicated and many foreign keys, therefore if I "test" a feature that touches table A that has a dependency on table B, my XML file needs to have table A and table B state/data in it. If table B has dependency on table C, then XML file has A,B and C in it. And so on so on.

All these XML files are produced by hand. There is no way to use a tool.

The XML files load directly into the database. This means that when I load a state on which I perform my tests, there is no guarantee that this database state is actually legitimate in the application itself. There are no factories or repositories where I can use the same logic that production code uses to create conceptual data entries in a test environment.

As expected, this leads to developers hand crafting application state XML documents that serve as basis for tests cases that are impossible to ever happen in production, but these tests are apparently what is used to show that the feature works.
The sheer expense involved in writing these XML files also mean at most, only the happy path test is written and edge cases are manually tested by some QA on staging environments.
