I would prefer to see Bamboo fail at the end. But as far as
commenting out tests goes, it seems to me the point of a unit test is
to show whether something works, and commenting-out every unit test
that fails really means the unit tests as a whole are pretty
worthless. I would rather comment out Bamboo and let the unit tests
accurately reflect the state of the project. :)
As far as the scripting issues and 1.4/1.5, I don't have a big
personal interest in whether the issues get fixed, it just seems kind
of cheesy that the Web site talks all about these different scripting
languages and how they work great for this and that, but then you try
them, and they turn out to be totally broken. Perhaps if we don't
plan to put fixes in, we should update the Web site pages for Jython
and JavaScript (and I haven't tried PHP and some of the others yet!)
to indicate that they don't actually work. At least we won't be
misleading anyone that way. (Of course, it may just be my scripting
syntax that's the problem, but I was hoping someone had worked with
those features and would know :)
Thanks,
Aaron
