I remain puzzled why I am seeing seemingly stochastic missing test results.
Hi Dave, This continues - although I have been making progress with the tests for some of my tools. Currently there are a number of repositories reported as failing but I can't see the error (and so can't do much about fixing it): http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/blastxml_to_top_descr http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/clinod http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/get_orfs_or_cdss http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/seq_primer_clip http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/ncbi_blast_plus When previously visible this was due to a test framework limitation testing with composite output files: http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2013-April/014365.html Given I suspect a cache issue hiding the test failures, it might help if rather than the current text like "Time tested: ~ 8 hours ago" this could also state the date and time of the test (in UTC/GMT to avoid locale confusion). Thanks, Peter ---- Other repositories failing with a clear error message: http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/tmhmm_and_signalp Missing dependencies, should have been skipped, see http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2013-May/014748.html http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/mira_assembler Limitation of test framework, Trello issue open for this, http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2013-April/014366.html http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/seq_rename Limitation of test framework, issue raised, http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2013-May/014701.html http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/venn_list Missing an R/Bioconductor dependency, best practise for handling this has yet to be agreed.
