test failures in downloaded Green CI image

by btc＠openinworld.com

In the process of tying to review the slices for a few issues, I downloaded build #30500 Pharo3.0-win.zip from [1]. (Normally I use files.pharo.org but I wanted to ensure it was a "GREEN" build.) However before loading the slice to review I double-checked the baseline test results by running all tests from TestRunner. I had presumed all tests would be green but was surprised by some failures in the result. Well it maybe it has something to do with environment, but it would be nice for it to be clean to help isoalte any errors introduced by the slice under review. Before I log anything on Fogbugz in case someone can advise anything obvious, the Test Runner result is shown below [2]. My platform is 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1. I'll try to follow up with more specific info on each line. cheers -ben [1] https://ci.inria.fr/pharo/job/Pharo-3.0-Update-Step-4-Publish/566/ [2] 11426 run, 11386 passes, 12 skipped, 26 expected failures, 12 failures, 2 errors, 0 unexpected passes FAILURES MetacelloRepositorySqueakCommonTestCase >> #testAsRepositorySpecFor MetacelloRepositorySqueakCommonTestCase >> #testDirectoryRepository MetacelloRepositorySqueakCommonTestCase >> #testFileTreeRepository RPackageReadOnlyCompleteSetupTest >> #testAddTag RPackageReadOnlyCompleteSetupTest >> #testAddTagNames KMDispatcherTestCase >> #testAttach RPackageSetTest >> #testPolymorphicWithPackageInfo BehaviorTest >> #testBehaviorRespectsPolymorphismWithTraitBehavior BehaviorTest >> #testLocalMethodsOfTheClassShouldNotBeRepeatedInItsTraits ProcessTest >> #testHighPriorityOverridesWaitTime ReleaseTest >> #testLocalMethodsOfTheClassShouldNotBeRepeatedInItsTraits ReleaseTest >> #testUndeclared ERRORS MetacelloTutorialTestCase >> #testProjectRef14 ZnServerTests >> #testRequestLineTooLong

Nautilus saved search 'Examples' folder

by btc＠openinworld.com

I see that at the top of the Nautilus Category Pane** are a few entries that behave like pre-built 'Saved Search Folders' of other applications. e.g. 'Last Modified Classes', 'Most Viewed Classes' A useful addition to this would be an 'Examples' folder, which presentes all categories containing the word 'Example' so that these are readily accessible at the top. cheers -ben ** Is it still called Category Pane, or with the recently announced important RPackage change is it now Package Pane ?

Re: [Pharo-dev] Anyone else teaching programming in Pharo?

I was wondering whether anyone else is doing that. I've put quite a bit of effort into it and would be willing to share my materials if anyone was interested. For instance, I've created a few little MicroWorlds for beginners to use (jumping directly into the browser is too difficult for complete programming novices). One is for doing turtle graphics. I've gone ahead and shared that for Pharo 2.0. You can get it in the Configuration Browser under the name EduTech. If you have some interest, let me know and I'll see what I can do. I'm :) I have boys at home and I would love to have some material to pair program with them. > > Cheers, > > Jeff > > -- > Jochen "Jeff" Rick, Ph.D. > http://www.je77.com/ > Skype ID: jochenrick
