cr3 | ara: hi there | 14:20 |
ara | cr3: hi :-) | 14:20 |
cr3 | ara: I think I found an acceptable way to run tests within checkbox (previously known as hwtest) as non-root | 14:21 |
cr3 | ara: I'll give my idea a try this morning and let you know how that goes | 14:21 |
ara | cr3: so we have a name :-) | 14:22 |
ara | cr3: checkbox is nice :-) | 14:22 |
ara | cr3: i like it | 14:22 |
ara | cr3: thanks, let me know how it goes | 14:23 |
cr3 | ara: thanks! I need to ping Ken about getting an icon | 14:24 |
persia | You might just ask on #ubuntu-artwork: there's lots of people there who might want to submit a couple icons. | 14:25 |
cr3 | persia: thanks for the info | 14:38 |
cr3 | ara: do you have a script working from the command line to run your tests? | 14:54 |
ara | cr3: yes, if you get the ubuntu-tests bzr branch, you can use run_script.sh + <xml config file> to run them | 14:55 |
ara | cr3: i.e. follow the example at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Automation/LDTP/UpdateSystem | 14:56 |
cr3 | ara: I don't have a hardy machine readily available, could you try something for me? | 14:56 |
ara | cr3: sure, tell me | 14:56 |
cr3 | ara: in your script, add the following line at the beginning of your execution and run your script with either sudo or gksu | 14:58 |
cr3 | import os, pwd; os.seteuid(pwd.getpwnam(os.getenv("SUDO_USER"))[2]) | 14:58 |
cr3 | I basically want to make sure that setting the EUID will work when running your script | 14:58 |
ara | cr3: ok, ill try that | 14:59 |
ara | cr3: it does not work :-( it will still try to run the test as root | 15:08 |
cr3 | ara: ok, thanks for the feedback | 15:09 |
cr3 | ara: what if you use this line instead: | 15:25 |
cr3 | import os, pwd; os.setreuid(pwd.getpwnam(os.getenv("SUDO_USER"))[2], 0) | 15:25 |
ara | cr3: let me see | 15:25 |
ara | cr3: no luck :( | 15:26 |
cr3 | ok, so I change the uid and it doesn't work. I change the euid and it doesn't work. what does your script expect exactly? | 15:28 |
cr3 | ara: actually, don't worry about it, I'll find a hardy box and test this for myself | 15:29 |
cr3 | stgraber: by the way, I fixed the /builds page on the production website and it's really cool to see test results magically appear for each daily iso :) | 15:48 |
stgraber | :) | 15:54 |
cr3 | stgraber: I'll be talking to the kernel folks in an hour on #ubuntu-kernel, during their weekly meeting, to ask what tests they might want to see added | 16:06 |
cr3 | stgraber: currently, we only have 10 automated tests which is rather pathetic | 16:06 |
cr3 | ara: have we figured out how to enable assistive technologies automatically? | 16:18 |
ara | cr3: not yet. i will write it down in my to-do list for this week | 16:18 |
ara | cr3: will get back to you when i get something | 16:18 |
cr3 | ara: I might have a look into this problem as well, I'll let you know if I find anything | 16:19 |
ara | cr3: ok | 16:19 |
ara | cr3: same thing :) | 16:19 |
cr3 | ara: do you have plans to make your project available in universe for intrepid? | 16:26 |
ara | cr3: yes, that would be great. if we get it running correctly with checkbox I will try to get it sponsored for intrepid universe | 16:27 |
