I not only agreed to the creation of a new keyword today, but suggested one. This reminded me that, if I'm going to be a curmudgeon about how we use keywords, I should set out my thoughts on the subject.

I'm still having to generate CNXML 0.5 to test tweaks to upconversion, and I was never that good at it to begin with; so it's useful to be able to access the previous version of the help.

After I grumbled at Jonathan yesterday during the read-timeout episode, we talked a bit about how we could keep track of performance issues without the admins feeling harrassed or the reporters fearing for their lives.

I know I'll lose track of what I did this week if I don't blog it, so for the benefit of our absent manager I'm going to try to do daily progress reports this week.

Well, I normally just report status on my testing page, but it's complex enough these days that I think I'll elaborate in a blog post.

Max has made extensive changes to our table rendering code so that it supports much more of the CALS table model. Unfortunately, turning on new features has consequences for some tables in our existing content. I've gone through to see how extensive the damage may be, and how much work we might have to do to bring existing tables "up to code".

Bottom line: about 15% of the total body of the test plans has been converted to Selenium. Woo hoo!

I spent most of this afternoon tracking down why a certain type of link didn't seem to be accessible by Selenium.

Until recently, the "serverdiff" script has only been used to compare citadel with cnx. We keep needing something like it for other circumstances too, though, so I'm gradually upgrading it.

The presence of some major addition/deletion bugs in the new XPathified EIP has spared me temporarily from having to tackle full formal test-plan writing for EIP...but Brian and Max appear to be closing in on them pretty quickly.

As I've worked more with Selenium, I've become more confident that we can do substantial testing with it. We can at least use Selenium for developer acceptance testing, to catch obvious mechanical problems before the new code gets to the human testers.

The "high-points test" is for touching every feature once and making sure its basic mechanism is intact. This includes submitting and accepting a patch, for instance, but not testing every control and combination of controls, or testing a variety of patch content.

Altova has come out with yet another service pack covering Authentic, XMLSpy, and StyleVision, so I'm doing some general Windows maintenance while I'm having to deal with the Altova upgrades anyway.
