| = Introduction = |
| This page will serve as a log and a resource for all the development activity being done in this project on testing. I have to write tests for the logic and views of Melange. The framework has undergone a major revision and the old tests are to be re-written. |

| Notes taken by: Praveen |
| |
| * Told Leo that : |
| * I have not been unable to concentrate on the project due to exams. |
| * I have started reading the books which I had ordered, _'Django 1.1 Testing and Debugging, Karen M. Tracey'_ and _'Python Testing, Daniel Arbuckle'_ |
| * We discussed how to get started with the project. |
| * Leo suggested: |
| * start with soc.logic which are relatively easier and do not require much knowledge of Django and GAE |
| * reuse the old tests which will require some modifications according to the new framework |
| * after soc.logic attack modules.gsoc.logic and modules.gci.logic |
| * write a python/shell script to calculate the frequency of a particular class and function which will give an idea about its importance and need for its thorough testing |
| * We also discussed what functional testing is which I had not able to explain to Leo |
| |
| = Coding Plan = |
| |
| == May 16 - May 22 (Community Bonding Period) == |
| * Upload a GAE instance and write a view to run all the tests and return all results back |
| * Write a python script to calculate the frequency of a term in the codebase |
| * Read Django and GAE documentation. |
| |
| == May 23 - June 15 (Official Coding Period) == |
| * Generate the directory structure of soc.logic |
| * Write tests for app.soc.logic and then for modules.gsoc.logic and modules.gci.logic |
