Hello John
Thanks for your reply and suggestions, they have been extremely helpful.
Doing "hg id -i" gives db520d154716, and having fudged the environment to work around the issue of missing dependencies, the tests are now succeeding using the
<param name="operations_0|operation|name" ... />
form that you suggested. It doesn't look as if the "min" attribute is causing any trouble in these cases.
(In the interests of full disclosure, I think my previous problem might also have been compounded by not specifying the "ftype" attribute when specifying input files elsewhere.)
Thanks also for the tip off about using the API test framework, I just gave it a try and it looks a bit cleaner than the Twill version. I will switch to using that from now on.
Thanks so much for your help,
Best wishes
Peter

Hello Peter,
For both of your questions it would be very helpful to know what version of Galaxy you are using (which tagged version or output of hg id -i).
I noticed you have min on your repeat - this did not work for the older Twill test runner historically (and may still not) but it isn't a problem for the newer API test framework. This next release will switch the default test framework to the newer API one but this is not the default for any past tagged releases - unless your Galaxy is really old you should be able to execute "export GALAXY_TEST_DEFAULT_INTERACTOR=api" in the shell before running tests to get the newer behavior. This fixes a lot of problems.
The older runner will also not accept the syntax <param name="operations_0|operation|name' value="..." /> but the newer runner should no problem.
Hope this gives you some ideas on how to proceed.

Hello all
I'm experiencing problems with specifying some tests for a Galaxy tool I've written, which are related to setting the value of a 'conditional' parameter that is defined within a 'repeat' tag.
The bones of the tool XML look like:
... <repeat name="operations" title="..." min="1"> <conditional name="operation"> <param name="name" type="select" label="..."> <option selected="true" value="SLIDINGWINDOW">Sliding windowtrimming...</option> <!--further options snipped--> </param> <when value="SLIDINGWINDOW"> ...
When I run the functional tests I get:
base.twilltestcase: ERROR: In submit_form, continuing, but caught exception. Traceback (most recent call last): File "XXXXX/galaxy-dist/test/base/twilltestcase.py", line 1910, in submit_form for value in kwd[ control.name ]: KeyError: 'operations_0|operation|name'
Is there a way to specify the the value in the tests? I've tried both
<param name="operations_0.operation.name' value="..." />and <param name="operations_0|operation|name' value="..." />
in my <test>s, but neither form seem to change the exception from the tests.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Peter
