20:01 <Letozaf_> hello
20:01 <popey> how are you Letozaf_ ajalkane
20:01 <ajalkane> howdy
20:01 <Letozaf_> I am fine thanks and you
20:01 <Letozaf_> ?
20:01 <popey> Great!
20:01 <Letozaf_> ajalkane, o/
20:02 <popey> so first thing - https://code.launchpad.net/~ajalkane/ubuntu-filemanager-app/more-recognized-music-files/+merge/249381
20:02 <popey> is that ready to land?
20:02 <ajalkane> Letozaf_: \o/
20:02 <popey> it's had a +1 from Carlos
20:02 <ajalkane> yes popey
20:02 <ajalkane> ok didn't notice, I'll top approve
20:02 <popey> magic, thanks
20:02 <popey> one off the list! :D
20:03 <ajalkane> done magically
20:03 <popey> Excellent.
20:04 <popey> Letozaf_: any progress on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-filemanager-app/+bug/1406988 ?
20:04 <popey> blocked on https://bugs.launchpad.net/autopilot/+bug/1423342 ?
20:05 <popey> seems AP say "wontfix" so back to us.
20:05 <popey> balloons: ^
20:05 <Letozaf_> popey, for the SDCard faking it's a bit "hard"
20:05 <popey> yeah
20:05 <Letozaf_> popey, that means that I will have to try do do this:
20:06 <Letozaf_> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-filemanager-app/+bug/1406988/comments/1
20:06 <ajalkane> well... if faking SDCard we can add support to filemanager to specify a "prefix" where it looks for mtab. Then it can be in directory autopilot can write to... and autopilot can write a fake mtab file
20:06 <Letozaf_> popey, it will take a bit if I make it :)
20:06 <ajalkane> * if faking SDCard is impossible
20:06 <popey> hmm, launching filemanager in a special way with a command line switch when testing might be useful, yes.
20:08 <Letozaf_> ajalkane, I do not think it's impossible, but it's hard for me, maybe others in the QA team are more skilled but have little time
20:08 <ajalkane> I mean I or someone else would modify filemanager and then you could just launch it for example from AP bootstrap:
20:09 <ajalkane> filemanager --mtabPrefix /tmp
20:09 <Letozaf_> ajalkane, that sounds good
20:09 <ajalkane> then filemanager would look for mtab in /tmp/etc/mtab
20:09 <ajalkane> but the AP bootstrap must be able to create the file before launching filemanager, that should be possible right?
20:09 <popey> yes
20:10 <popey> so AP sets up the files in /tmp/fakesdcard then launches file manager in a special way
20:10 <popey> and cleans up after
20:10 <ajalkane> something like that
20:11 <Letozaf_> hope you guys do not encounter permission problems, thats the problem I had trying to mount an image of an SDCard
20:11 <Letozaf_> I needed to be root but could not do that
20:12 <Letozaf_> or use sudo
20:12 <popey> you wont need to if we fake the directory
20:12 <Letozaf_> popey, ok so that would be great
20:12 <popey> the test should navigate to teh faked sd card in file manager and try to do simple tasks
20:12 <popey> like navigate a folder etc
20:12 * balloons reads
20:13 <Letozaf_> balloons, o/
20:15 <ajalkane> well not faked SDcard. That would be no test
20:15 <ajalkane> Faked mtab file which lists all the mounts
20:15 <popey> right
20:15 <ajalkane> So the test should be able to write the mtab file contents and specify there similar things that happen when SDCard is inserted
20:16 <ajalkane> Optimally we could get outputs of real device's mtab file with and without SDCard and use those for tests, with some modifications if needed
20:23 <popey> ok.
20:23 <popey> Letozaf_: make sense?
20:23 <Letozaf_> popey, more or less yes :)
20:24 <popey> Great!
20:24 <popey> Ok, anything else?
20:24 <ajalkane> When it's ready I'll provide more complete information
20:24 <Letozaf_> ajalkane, yes thanks
20:24 <Letozaf_> popey, I have looked at the failures in filemanager app tests
20:24 <Letozaf_> popey, did you receive my emails ?
20:24 <popey> no..
20:25 * popey looks
20:25 <Letozaf_> popey, :(
20:25 <popey> oh, found it!
20:25 <popey> sorry.
20:25 <Letozaf_> :)
20:26 <popey> these sound like questions for balloons :S
20:26 <Letozaf_> popey, ok so I will tell balloons about this
20:27 <popey> sorry.
20:27 <Letozaf_> popey, :) no worries
20:29 <popey> Ok, anything else?
20:29 <ajalkane> Not for me
20:29 <balloons> which questions? the sdcard faking?
20:29 <Letozaf_> no
20:29 <Letozaf_> balloons, I took a look at why filemanager app tests are failing
20:29 <balloons> Letozaf_, ohh something doable perhaps then
20:30 <balloons> we can chat after the meetin'
20:30 <Letozaf_> balloons, yes
20:30 <popey> \o/
20:30 <popey> Thanks everyone!
20:30 <ajalkane> thanks!
20:31 <Letozaf_> thanks
