| drpal | So some things happened over the weekend. |
| drpal | There’s a branch here, |
| drpal | Which contains some of the work. |
1️⃣ Please introduce yourself if you’re attending today’s meeting!
| drpal | Matt! |

| eatings | David from Taiwan! |
| drpal | :scream: |
| mixologic | Hi, I was summoned by mention of DrupalCI - Ryan, from the DA |
| dawehner | Daniel, my name |
| xjm | Halfway here :slightly_smiling_face: |
| prestonso | Preston in New York |
| lauriii | Hello! Sorry I’m late! I’m Lauri and joining from Bangkok! |
2️⃣ Nightwatch & DrupalCI updates.
| drpal | Alright. |
| drpal | There is some work here, |
| drpal | Which kind of works. |
| drpal | Big thanks to @justafish @dawehner and @mixologic! |
| justafish | |
| drpal | @justafish thanks. |
| dawehner | Key steps which are still required there |
| dawehner | :A: Figure out a nice way to call to a local URL like /login without having to specify the base url |
| drpal | I am working on `A` right now. |
| dawehner | :B: Figure out how to install drupal and take that into account in a cookie. Reviews on are welcome |
| justafish | my usual solution for that is to make a shared.js file alongside globals.js and add $1 to it |
| drpal | @justafish have you seen ? |
| dawehner | @justafish it would be nice to not have to define it though |
| mixologic | also, it wont be on localhost, we'll need a way to tell it where its at. |
| drpal | There is also some interesting bits on custom commands which we could do. |
| justafish | I haven’t - that’s great @drpal! |
| mixologic | oh, but we could easily env that part too. |
| justafish | @drpal I’ve written lots of custom commands, I can help with that |
| justafish | to abstract things like .login() |
| dawehner | @justafish That is nice as well. I can come up with a list of things the PHP test does right now and which would be nice to have in nightwatch as well |
| justafish | that’d be great! |
| drpal | @dawehner Can you make an issue on that repo? |
| drpal | And we can just tackle them individually? |
| dawehner | @drpal Good idea, I'm writing together the list of stuff |
| drpal | yay! |
| dawehner | :C: @justafish pointed out that nightwatch supports junit. I'm wondering whether we need some custom code on the testbot to parse it in the way it needs it to be. @mixologic Do you have an opinion about that? |
| mixologic | the only thing we need is to have it output into a place where jenkins is going to look for it. |
| justafish | +1 to GitHub issue - make a list of checkboxes |
| mixologic | so my plan was to make sure that it output it as junit to the right places. |
| dawehner | @mixologic Oh that's it? I saw that the php one does some additional parsing, but I guess that's fine |
| justafish | here’s some example output from the test in @drpal’s branch |
| justafish | ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <testsuites errors="0" failures="0" tests="1"> <testsuite name="index" <testcase name="Demo Drupal.org" classname="index" time="3.866" assertions="2"> </testcase> </testsuite> ``` |
| mixologic | @dawehner thats because the junit that run-tests.sh outputs is bad, so we had to fix it to work properly. once everything is converted to phpunit we can just use phpunit's junit output as well withoutwithout modifying it. |
| dawehner | @mixologic LOL |
| dawehner | @mixologic So given that @justafish's output looks pretty nice |
| mixologic | so yeah, the only thing I really need to do is make sure that the junit that nightwatch puts out gets placed into the right directory so jenkins will parse it. |
| dawehner | @mixologic Do you see any additional points we need to address conceptually? |
| mixologic | We'll need to try and break it in weird ways to see what sort of exit codes we get, and experiment with parallelization (multiple sessions etc). |
| dawehner | @mixologic He, sounds like the usual issues :slightly_smiling_face: |
| mixologic | That and a howto doc for contrib maintainers once we've got a stable thing for them to work with. |
| dawehner | :troll: We need to integrate it into the simpletest UI |
| mixologic | We can work on that after we build an AI that can build that for us. |
