I'd be open for suggestions for other tests. A majority of the fixes
were templates and they were to use an already existing bit of code
functionality that I didn't add like you said. The viewlets were
modified to support this and I have the test to confirm it in the base
class for the viewlets.
If there are some specific tests you'd like to see I'd be happy to add
them, but in the end the trickiest piece of code I updated was the
calendar tool modifications and I added tests there also.
FYI... we have released collective.lineage which depends on many of
these fixes and I believe will expand the number of people using this
functionality. There are a lot of people excited about this new
product and are wanting to deploy it. We actually have 1 site in
production with it already. Since this functionality was already in
Plone before I got ahold of it I still see this PLIP as a large bug
fix that really should be included.
FWIW, I think much of Calvin's work could've gone into a 3.2.x release
as bug fixes. If he doesn't break tests, and writes a few tests for
truly new code, then I think that's probably sufficient in most places.
Having done something similar in the past (but not read Calvin's diff in
detail), I suspect most of his changes were simply to stop people making
use of portal_url() when they should've used get_navigation_root().
There may be cases when we could add a "defect" type test to show that
the navigation root didn't work before, but now does, but let's not
create too much work for what is, in many cases, more about analysing a
problem and applying a few surgical fixes, than writing a ton of new code.
