Usually the goal is to /not/ change the image that is generated. If it changes, that means it has the potential to break somebody's code, or some project relying on the behavior that existed before. Mustella, as you are aware is a functional testing suite, so in addition to checking the validity of functions, etc. it also takes screen-shots of the sample applications and compares them with the ones in it's 'database'. If they differ then the test fails.
There should be very little need to regenerate the images in general. The ones that are checked in should be pretty agnostic, and should already cover all the components and how they are supposed to behave on every platform. The reason why the charts and ADG fail is because the images that were submitted with the tests were either wrong, or there is something that is not OS/FP specific that is being checked (shouldn't happen). I was generating my own images for those components based on the 4.6 on my local machine because tests with images didn't exist. I needed to test to make sure that the patches I was putting in that dealt with the charts didn't break. I saw somebody chime in saying they were going to fix those tests, but I forget who. I'm sure proper images will be checked in and your tests should pass at that point. -Nick On Sun, Dec 9, 2012 at 10:50 AM, Frédéric THOMAS <webdoubl...@hotmail.com>wrote: > Hi Nick, > > Ok, I guess I see your point, it's just when you change the code of the > framework, it might makes differences in the generated images, right ? > So, it would mean that AdvancedDataGrid and Charts failed because of other > changes in the framework or I missed somthing in the reason you regenerate > the images against the 4.6 and and rerun tests against the current > framework ? > > (Sorry for asking to dig into details but I'm discovering Mustella and I > might miss how things might impact others) > > > - Fred > > -----Message d'origine----- From: Nicholas Kwiatkowski > Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2012 4:29 PM > > To: flex-dev@incubator.apache.org > Subject: Re: [Mustella] 90 tests failed > > Well, the point is to test any code that you may have broke. 4.6 is > supposed to be the baseline, and if I break something that was working in > 4.6, then I need to know about it. > > -Nick > > On Sun, Dec 9, 2012 at 10:26 AM, Frédéric THOMAS <webdoubl...@hotmail.com> > **wrote: > > Hi Nick, >> >> Tell me if I'm wrong, but regenerating them against the 4.6 is the same >> than the 4.8 as they both use the same swfVersion, right ? >> At the end, you just regenerate them against your own system, right ? >> >> - Fred >> >> -----Message d'origine----- From: Nicholas Kwiatkowski >> Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2012 2:13 PM >> >> To: flex-dev@incubator.apache.org >> Subject: Re: [Mustella] 90 tests failed >> >> One quick test I do is to generate the base-line images running mustella >> against 4.6, and then run mustella against the current tests that were >> failing. >> >> That should at least work for the image comparison issues you are seeing.. >> That is at least what I was doing for the charting components before the >> official tests were donated. >> >> -Nick >> >> On Sun, Dec 9, 2012 at 2:11 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: >> >> I will investigate the test failures over the next few days.
