By the way, 90% code coverage seems to be better, if anything, than what
industry does.

Re: how exactly to do unit testing in scheme...

2018-01-30 Thread Robert Merkel
Sorry for the tardy response - I went away for the long weekend and was
busy yesterday!

As Phil says, you can test both leaf functions and controller code with
unit tests. With controller code, you may need to write mocks for some or
all of the called code.  I don't know whether there are prewritten mocking
libraries for guile, but given the extreme flexibility of scheme it
shouldn't be difficult to write code to replace one function call with
another where necessary.

As long as xaccTransGetDate and xaccSplitGetParent are adequately tested,
there is no particular reason from a testing perspective to throw in an
intermediate function.

As far as which options to test, if testing all the combinations
exhaustively results in too many tests (and it sounds like it does) try
pairwise combinatoric testing, which works as follows:

Say you've got options {o_1, o_2, o_3, ... o_n}, each of which can take a
limited set of values {o_i^1, o_i_2, o_i^k} (for instance, if the option
can either be "on" or "off" it has two values).

For any pair of options o_x and o_y, for all the possible combinations of
option values there should be at least one test that has that combination.

To give a very simple case, for three options {a, b, c}  each of which can
take two values {off, on}, you could have the following tests:

 Option   a b c
Test
1 off  off   off
2 off   on  off
3 on   off   on
4 onon  off
5 off   offon

For the pair (a,b) tests 1 through 4 give all the possible combinations,
for the pair (a, c) tests {1, 3, 4, 5} give all the possible combinations,
and for the pair (b, c) tests {1, 2, 3, 4} give all the possible
combinations.

5 is the minimum number of tests that can meet the pairwise combinatoric
criterion, as compared to 8 if you tried all the possible combinations.
However, it becomes an even bigger win if you're trying lots of options:
you only need 9 tests for 8 options with two values, whereas you would need
256 tests to try every possible option combination!

To generate optimal pairwise test sets, you can use "jenny" (this is a
really useful but unmaintained tool, I really should take over the
maintenance):

http://burtleburtle.net/bob/math/jenny.html

Hope this helps, and feel free to ask more questions.  I will try to
respond more promptly!

Thanks all.

I realised the VM I was working with was an LTS version, and upgraded to
the most recent Ubuntu release.  Gnucash built without problems in the
upgraded VM.

It seems like the fixes were a good piece of housekeeping anyway.

Just to let you know it's looking increasingly likely I'm going to have a
bunch of students poking and prodding at gnucash some time in April.  I'll
make sure to file bug reports for any real bugs they find.  I'll ask them
to route any questions they have through me, so it shouldn't result in
masses of mailing list traffic.

Build issues and some free testing

2018-01-22 Thread Robert Merkel
Hello all.

If you dig far enough into the mailing list archives or the changelogs, you
might find me :)

I spoke to Christopher Lam recently, who told me about the work he's been
doing on the transaction report which I worked on many many years ago.

These days, my day job is teaching students about software engineering and,
this upcoming semester, I'm teaching a unit on testing and quality
assurance.  For one of the assignments, we need some software for students
to test, and I thought I might get them to test Gnucash.

So, for the first time for quite a while, I have tried to download and
build gnucash from the git repository using cmake.  I've found the
following build issues:

* The build process requires xsltproc and makeinfo, which are not mentioned
in the dependency list and cmake doesn't seem to check for them.

* The build failed on my Ubuntu machine with the stock version of
libwebkit2-gtk available on that distribution (2.4.11).  It appears that
Gnucash requires version
2.6 of this library, as "WebKitNavigationAction" was apparently added in
version 2.6.  Again, the minimum version isn't listed and cmake doesn't
have a check for it.

Hope this is useful.

Regards,

Robert Merkel.

Re: Licensing requirements [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

2009-04-02 Thread Robert Merkel
You are perfectly free to download and use Gnucash for any purpose,
including commercial purposes, at no charge, forever.

If you are a programmer (or want to hire one) to *modify* gnucash and
distribute the modified version outside your organization, then you need to
read the licence.

But as far as installation and use goes, there are no restrictions
whatsoever.

 I asked my IT department if I could install Gnucash on my computer at

 I would just like to confirm with you if I do need any licence in my

Dear Graham,

I'm not actively involved, but so the people that are can help you, more
information will be required to fix your problem:

* the exact versions of GnuCash you have tried.
* the operating system you are using.
* whether printing is working for other applications.
* what the exact error message is (if you can, copy and paste it into your

Without that information, it will be impossible to assist you.

 software. As you can imagine, I have a bazillion other things to do.

 Also, I have been searching on your site and I can't find any install

 available.

 Many useful Linux programs are like this I have noticed over the years.
 Not all of us are Linux jocks, nor do we want to be. This is what keeps

  Maybe you were just joking around, (I do see a smiley), but if you're

  itself to be GNU software.  I've been unable to find any evidence that
  this was ever true.  Do you have any?  If not, I believe you are
  mistaken.
 
 At the time that GNUCash appeared to be friendly with the GNU Project  
 there wasn't much documentation about GNUCash in general.  I don't  
 think it or propagating relationships in what existed was a primary  
 focus.  In a nutshell, just because documentation doesn't state  
 anything doesn't prove a ton (in either direction).
 
  I admit that the FSF has apparently declared GnuCash to be a GNU
  package for at least some time. [2] But, the FSF's own definition of
  a GNU package seems to require that the software authors declare their
  software to be so.  I have no explanation for this inconsistency.
 
 RMS' email to this list was asking this project to FIX this problem.   
 I admit that it seems a bit delayed.  For the record some time ago  
 GNOME put Open Source on their home page and it caused quite a  
 problem (as obviously they were at the time one of the most prolific  
 GNU projects).
 
  As for RMS's implication that the GNU Project wrote GnuCash [3],
  GnuCash's authors are quite well noted in GnuCash's source and AUTHORS
  file.  I don't know of the official membership of the GNU Project -
  perhaps it's a circular definition, but of those contributors, you,
  Thomas, are the only one I know of that's apparently associated with
  the GNU Project.
 
 I think only the developers can say.  Here is where I think some of  
 the roots (or my understanding of them) are confused.  It is my  
 understanding that Linas took an X-accountant program which was no  
 longer maintained and gutted it to not be dependent on Motif.  My  
 interactions with Linas certainly made me believe he was very  
 connected to the Free Software Foundation AND the GNU Project because  
 I was introduced to him via RMS as needing to collaborate for the  
 betterment of the GNU Project.
 
 It is also my understanding that the GNU Project very much helped  
 Linux Global Partners put money behind the company Linas ran  
 (GNUMatic) which employed many of the people in the AUTHORS file.   
 During my interaction with GNUMatic it was very much communicated  
 that GNUCash was part of the GNU Project.
 
 Once GNUMatic shut its doors most of those developers stepped away  
 (including Linas) and Derek Atkins took primary leadership of the  
 project.  Since that happened there seems to no longer be any  
 connection to the GNU Project.
 
  I'm just trying to objectively examine the few things that would
  suggest ambiguity on the subject.  On the whole, I'm inclined to trust
  the more numerous and less ambiguous data that clearly indicate the
  GnuCash has never been a GNU package, e.g. a public statement by a
  core GnuCash developer in 2001, While GnuCash is licenced under GPL
  software, we are not technically a GNU project. [4]
 
 I don't think a comment in a Slashdot posting is hard evidence.   
 Note that Robert Merkel, if memory serves correct, was an employee at  
 GNUMatic.  Many of the GNUMatic employees started Linux Developers  
 Group (LDG) after GNUMatic closed.  There was a vested interest to  
 try to muddy copyright waters of code for LDG's gain.  Note: I am not  
 saying that to be negative or indicate any sort of wrong doing.  Not  
 even saying the source is wrong.  Just saying that the source loses  
 credibility because of potential conflict of interest.
 
 The FSF asks projects to ASSIGN copyright, but doesn't MANDATE it (or  
 at least they used to not do so).  I think well run projects do, both  
 for legal issues and issues like this.
 
  All that aside, I don't really have a strong opinion either way, if
  other devs wanted to make GnuCash a GNU package.  They would have to
  announce it, though.  As far as I can tell, they don't really care
  much.  However, it's strange that RMS claims that GnuCash is a GNU
  package, and definitely impolite to imply that GnuCash was written by
  the GNU Project. [3]
 
 I definitely agree here.  I think the current developers (those  
 putting in their time) need to assess whether they want to be a part  
 of the GNU Project.  If so, they should do the things that are  
 expected of GNU projects.  If not, they should let RMS

 Speaking for myself only, it was my understanding that neither Gnumatic

OK, Linas has directly contradicted me.  Take his word for it, not mine.

 ? 1.9.5 ? The latest available in Debian unstable is:
 ii  libgwrapguile11.3.4-12 
 /usr/bin/g-wrap-config
 
 Are we talking about the same package?
 
  autoconf seems to be

 What I've got as 1.9.5 is libgwrap-runtime0 - that is 1.9.5-2. The dev 
 version 
 of that package is not what you need for g-wrap-config - you need the Guile 
 version.
 

OK, I installed those packages, and autoconf seems to be happy now.  

I'm still not quite clear on how g-wrap has changed since I used it
last, but I'm sure I'll figure it out...

g-wrap 1.9.5 and G2 branch

2005-04-23 Thread Robert Merkel
Hi guys, 

Is G2 CVS supposed to compile with g-wrap 1.9.5?  autoconf seems to be 
checking for g-wrap-config, which doesn't seem to be part of the new 
version unless I'm missing something.

TIA for any assistance.
