Everyone who needs to ensure a strict "backward compatibility" on some web2py feature, if not included yet in gluon/tests/*, is **urged** to send new tests (or patches to the existent ones) . Tests are standard unittests, you can run them easily by: 1. pip install unit2 2. cding into the web2py.py folder and, from the console
PYTHONPATH=. unit2 -v gluon.tests if you're on Unix, while SET PYTHONPATH=. unit2 -v gluon.tests if you're on Windows Travis-ci is covering SQLite 3.7, Postgres 9.1 and Mysql 5.5, but you can (and should) test it against your preferred db engine (and your python version), if it's not in those three (watch out with NoSQL engines, tests may fail, e.g., in testing joins) You can easily test web2py dal against your preferred db engine setting the DB environmental variable to a connection string pointing to your database (no tables in there, if you don't want to mess up things) So, if you want to test the dal against your empty "mydb" that is mssql, just do PYTHONPATH=.;DB=mssql://username:password@localhost/mydb unit2 -v gluon.tests.test_dal -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
