yup. something like that.

1:00 PM

how do i test what i wrote is not rubbish?

use get_value if instead of all variants.

ok done

just run the file.

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'TestCase'

hm

ah. rename the file to something else and retry.

:P

1:03 PM

which file?

unittest.py

it conflicts with module name.

oh

renameit to unityresetunittestsohilovelongnames.py

same error

$ python faketest.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "faketest.py", line 3, in <module>
    import unittest
  File "/home/jokerdino/unity-reset/unittest.py", line 7, in <module>

is unittest.py still there?

get rid of unittest.py. rename it.

1:06 PM

ok there was a pyc

File "faketest.py", line 12, in setUp
    compizPlugins=unityreset.UnityReset.snapshotCompizPlugins()

oh.

gimme a sec.

git commit locally then git pull origin master

ok

updated unity-reset.py. the methods were not static earlier.

mhk

different error

pull and retry

1:19 PM

it resets my unity

but no result of whether pass or fail

i should have waited. my bad

trying again

oh.

fail

actually, unity doesn't return control I guess. scroll and find things in output.

started another unity in another terminal

you sure that key goes to true?

1:22 PM

        gsettings=Gio.Settings("com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens")
        if "display-recent-apps" in gsettings.list_keys():

        unityreset.UnityReset()
        key=gsettings.get_value("display-recent-apps")
        self.assertTrue(key==True)

wait....

either i should wait for it to be written or i am doing it wrong?

i am thinking i should use set_boolean instead

you have to check unityChildren['com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens']['display-recent-apps']

why do you do this?

do what?

if "display-recent-apps" in gsettings.list_keys():
if gsettings.get_value("display-recent-apps") is True:
#print "Unsetted default"
gsettings.set_value("display-recent-apps",False)

1:24 PM

you said copy from booltest.py

oh. okay.

open python shell

in the same folder.

import unityreset

then

unityChildren=unityreset.UnityReset.snapshotUnityChildren()

unityChildren['com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens']['display-recent-apps']

what does it say?

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'Variant' object has no attribute 'format_string'

appears

how's it going?

1:26 PM

bad. :/

What's wrong

I wasn't really paying attention that time

print unityChildren['com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens']['display-recent-apps']

true

small true

not True

do you guys need/want help?

okay.

so the default is true.

@jrg yup.

1:28 PM

@jrg yup

then we set it to false.

set it.

alright, let me go re-read the log

i am checking for True and not true

Gio=unityreset.Gio

@jokerdino yup that.

thats the prob then.

Ran 1 test in 47.496s

OK

actually, the problem was with get_value and get_boolean

def test_staticschema(self):
        gsettings=Gio.Settings("com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens")
        if "display-recent-apps" in gsettings.list_keys():
            if gsettings.get_boolean("display-recent-apps") is True:
            #print "Unsetted default"
                gsettings.set_boolean("display-recent-apps",False)
        unityreset.UnityReset()
        key=gsettings.get_boolean("display-recent-apps")
        self.assertTrue(key==True)

this works -^

might be either set_boolean or get_boolean

1:31 PM

yup.

the return type is bad for us.

lets stash my fancinedd and do it the good old way then.

Ok, now can someone explain to me what in the name of gnu is going on?

:P

dino will tell you.

@jokerdino Tell me

so, we should use get_boolean @Mahesh

1:33 PM

yup.

@AmithKK writing unit tests

or change the assertTrue statement.

to true?

key is a Glib.Variant type.

oh

1:33 PM

so, see if key==Glib.Variant(true) works.

ok

how can I help :D

but we need to import something to access Glib.

@AmithKK once we get the first unit test straight.

@Mahesh from gi_repository :P ?

or can you stub your glib responses?

we'll each pick one and rock.

1:35 PM

ok trying with true

@jokerdino try from gi.repository import Glib in python shell

i'm not as up-to-date on my python testing frameworks, but in ruby I can stub a response for an external API or something.

@jokerdino nope. you have to try it with a Glib.Variant type object.

not a string.

true fails. we should just use get_boolean :P

@jrg stub?

1:36 PM

that way i just import the response, and not the actual library, since the library can break.

@jokerdino just use get_boolean

nope. lets try things better.

@Mahesh ok, guess it doesn't support that. ignore me.

you are talking of doctest.

@jrg I don't think the unit test framework supports stubbing. :D

1:37 PM

well, the python counterpart is doctest.

@Mahesh Never used that :P

@AmithKK this is a lame testing framework. :P

@jokerdino open up a python shell.

you mean import GLib

then what?

anyway. i'll try and catch up on this stuff.

1:37 PM

from gi.repository import GLib,Gio

okay

next?

a=Gio.Settings("com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens").get_value("display-recent-apps")

a=Gio.Settings("com.canonical.Unity.ApplicationsLens").get_value("display-recent-apps")
>>> print a
true

okay.

b=GLib.Variant(True)

print b

You need to assign Ninja'd

1:39 PM

a==b

if thats a true, congratulate me.

 b=GLib.Variant(True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: __new__() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given)

great.

dig up its constructor.

wut?

dig up documentation for GLib.Variant
