[14:46] <nik90> elopio: ping me when you are online. We can discuss https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/ubuntu-clock-app/xvfb_and_qml_tests/+merge/234421
[15:02] <elopio> ping nik90
[15:02] <nik90> elopio: hey
[15:02] <nik90> elopio: I was looking at your MP in the morning
[15:03] <nik90> elopio: and when opening it in qtc, I noticed Qml tests disabled: xvfb-run not found
[15:03] <nik90> this was on my laptop which has xvfb installed
[15:06] <elopio> nik90: hello. I was just trying to run the tests with xvfb, because fginther said they failed for him on CI.
[15:07] <elopio> but lets see... On qtcreator, on the build -> make menu
[15:07] <elopio> I only see check, autopilot, install, uninstall. How do I get to run make test?
[15:07] <nik90> me too
[15:07] <nik90> I used to do it manually from terminal
[15:07] <nik90> so I used to do mkdir builddir && cd builddir
[15:07] <nik90> cmake .. && make
[15:07] <nik90> then make test
[15:09] <balloons> elopio, fyi, francis's experiments are not in the normal clock app CI jobs
[15:09] <elopio> nik90: making from the builddir doesn't work because cmake is creating the files on the root of the branch.
[15:10] <elopio> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8327808/
[15:10] <elopio> balloons: you mean that they are not run on MPs?
[15:11] <nik90> elopio: the steps I mentioned above works for me
[15:12] <nik90> elopio: well the tests don't run since I am trying to run this on trusty
[15:12] <nik90> elopio: but make test correctly shows the tests
[15:13] <balloons> elopio, no they are not atm. francis tried but didn't succeed in getting them to run..
[15:14] <balloons> they are not in the mp jobs
[15:14] <elopio> nik90: I might had a cmake cache or something. Now it's writing the files on the builddir.
[15:14] <elopio> and yes, make test works.
[15:15] <elopio> so I'm not sure where are you getting the message that xvfb is not found.
[15:16] <nik90> elopio: so when you opened it in qtc, how did you run the tests?
[15:17] <nik90> elopio: since I don't see tests in the build->make menu
[15:17] <elopio> nik90: I didn't run them from qtc. That was my first question.
[15:17] <nik90> elopio: ah ok..I don't think it will work with qtc, or atleast that's not the goal.
[15:17] <nik90> elopio: command line works
[15:20] <elopio> nik90: I'm confused :)
[15:20] <elopio> but if you think it's ok, I'm ok.
[15:20] <nik90> elopio: I am a bit confused as well :P
[15:20] <nik90> elopio: ok so previously one couldn't run qml tests in qtc.
[15:21] <nik90> elopio: when you changed the cmake files, I figured you added a custom target for make tests to make it runnable from within qtc.
[15:21] <nik90> elopio: but I see that wasn't the case, which is why I said it is okay
[15:23] <elopio> nik90: well, make test doesn't need a custom target. I thought qtc would find it anyway.
[15:23] <elopio> and in your initial implementation, you didn't have a custom target either.
[15:24] <nik90> yup I didn't
[15:24] <elopio> I could add one to see what happens.
[15:24] <nik90> its just a luxury, so if you want to go ahead
[15:25] <elopio> hum, but then add_test I think wouldn't work.
[15:25] <elopio> zbenjamin: how can we run make test from qtcreator?
[18:00] <zbenjamin> elopio: well you could add a custom run configuration that executes make test in the builddirectory
