Test::Unit Reports

Hi,

Does anyone know what happened to these? The below link is not valid.

http://rubyforge.org/projects/test-report/

Have these been superseded or is there some other HTML reports I can
use with
Test::Unit.

Hello,

i see in rubyforge this URL:
http://rubyforge.org/snippet/browse.php?by=lang&lang=17

what is the php tag in the url?
if this is a ruby-website, why they are run php, not ruby?

I think the short answer is that, at the time RubyForge was
established, the most appropriate software for running a site like it
was GForge – which happens to be written in PHP (and other languages,
as I recall). There are at least a few possible Ruby-based
replacements (like RedMine?) that are now available, but I can only
imagine how much of a task it would be to migrate all of the existing
projects hosted by RubyForge to a different system.

By the way – what language is your e-mail client written in? You
did use a Ruby-based e-mail program to post your message, didn’t
you? :wink:

I’ve removed Test::Reporter from RubyForge, because there are two
superior
alternatives:

ci-reporter, that does all of the same and more:
http://caldersphere.rubyforge.org/ci_reporter/

and CruiseControl.rb, that makes the whole business of fancy test
results
formatting largely unnecessary:
http://cruisecontrolrb.thoughtworks.com/

You’ll find that tons of Ruby sites use PHP based software. Why? KISS.
You don’t always have to build it. If a good solution exists that you
already know how to use, it’s not a bad idea.
There are still PHP sites built with Perl…
Doesn’t matter. All you’re seeing is the file extension. It could
be .bob as long as the server knows what to do with it, like sending
it to the appropriate interpreter. You’ll notice, or not notice, that
many Rails sites and PHP sites serve pages with no file extension,
because the browser does not care!

As long as I don’t have to look at the source code, it’s not all that
horrifying.

It would either finally impel me to get back to learning Japanese, or
keep me from learning Ruby. I’d give it about 50% either way.

They don’t. Non native English speakers create programming languages
with English words in them, but they have to know a little English
(begin, end, do, call, if, then, etc.)

Historical reasons.

I recall seeing that line in either AWDR or the Pickaxe. :slight_smile:

I struggled through two years of Russian in college because someone had
told me that the Russians were ahead of the USA in math and computer
science. Hell, it turned out that they were still using vacuum tubes and
the only thing they knew how to do better than we did was probability
theory. I should have learned French instead – or Japanese.

It was the Pickaxe – good eye. I paraphrased, of course.

I should have kept practicing Japanese after that last Japanese class.
Now, I don’t even remember how to ask for a restroom. I get a kick out
of watching Japanese movies with subtitles and marvelling at the wide
disparity between translation and original Japanese, though, based on
the bits I still understand.

P.S.: If you’re near a decent university library, look up a book on a
supposedly “earth-shaking” programming language the Russians invented
called Lyapas. If it’s possible to have a language more bizarre than
Unlambda or Intercal or Malbolge … this one is it. But computer
scientists told us it was wonderful for some reason. Go figure.

P.P.S: I actually tried to create a language that looks a lot like
Unlambda in the 1970s. I really thought it was useful, not some bizarre
computer scientist’s way of making unreadable code. I wonder what would
have happened if I had tried to publish it?

You’d probably have your own mailing list, and people would be calling
you by some kind of cute four-letter term of endearment that ends with
Z. Well, okay, maybe not, but it’s fun to dream.

This was in the early – mid 1970s, before mailing lists and personal
computers. I discovered the lambda calculus and volume one of
Combinatory Logic by Curry and Feys (the Curry being Haskell Curry)
in about 1971. That was when I decided to learn Lisp and read McCarthy’s
paper. The language was going to be called “STRIP” by analogy with LISt
Processing for Lisp – STRIP for STRIng Processing. It was essentially
McCarthy’s character based version of Lisp (I forget what he called it)
with combinators instead of lambdas. When I saw Unlambda a couple of
weeks ago, I said, “Whoa! Somebody actually did that?”

I do have my own mailing list, and people call me “znmeb”, a cute
five-letter word that beings with z. Hmmm …

Italian, definitely Italian because Puccini, Bellini and Donizetti
will never go away, and some like Verdi too, but do not tell my French
wife. Well 574km/h is an achievement though, well done. (I am talking
about the train :wink:

Um . . . okay, I’ll look that up later tonight. Sounds like it should
at least be worth a few moments’ amusement to read about it, though I’m
pretty sure I won’t want to learn it any time soon, based on that
description.
