Make a screencast of what successful clone, compile + tests looks like

[ctb]

@RamRS pointed out that it wasn't obvious ;)

[RamRS]

Or, create a makeIt.sh that runs a make >out 2>err then picks up the last 2 lines, checks and displays success/failure!

You can use something like http://ascii.io/ too

or just check the exit code of make?

I think ascii.io would be a better choice than a screencast, unless you
were planning on having a lot of talking. It can be difficult to sync
audio to ascii.io (from what I've heard).

Will this be needed with the new build system?

[RamRS]

Is it possible to implement an equivalent of make tests (or any make X)
with a deb? Assuming debs are installed with sudo apt-get, what will make X
translate to?

In the new build system the makefiles are going away.

Tests will be run from an unpacked tarball via python setup.py nosetests

I don't see how a Debian binary package would be of use to a developer.

[RamRS]

Ahh, I was quite out of context, thinking of debs and rpms and whatnot! setup.py is what's being discussed and the issue now needs rephrasing:

On running "python setup.py nosetests"
How does one know if these tests ran successfully or failed? Also, amateur-alert.

[mr-c]

There is a summary at the end

Ran 211 tests in 17.102s

OK

[ctb]

I like the notion of tests being runnable after install; could help debug
various issues. More discussion needed.

@ctb : Post-install testing mandatory or optional? Also, is this the default behavior when we run a "make test" after a "make all"?

[ctb]

Post-install optional, in case we are getting weird results due to architecture or other installs; it'd be nice to be able to ask the user to do some basic cross-checking. @mr-c may be able to reassure me that this is never needed with RPMs or DEBs... 'make test' runs the tests, but 'make all' does not.

[mr-c]

Yes it would be useful to run the tests on the installed khmer and not the copy in the current directory. Right now we don't install the tests.

[RamRS]

Do we have a non make test way of testing after install now? If not, how do we go about creating one?

[mr-c]

Not at this time. For the purposes of this issue doing a git clone ...; cd khmer; make; make tests in a http://ascii.io/ recording would fulfill the request.

Testing after install is not a current priority.

[RamRS]

Alright. I'm on it!

@RamRS Great!

@ctb What did you want done with the screencast?

[qingpeng]

Good job!@RamRS https://github.com/RamRS

Thank you. It was quite a straightforward task, and I am glad that you find
it satisfactory! :-)
