Nightmare Converted to Dream

Finally after all Hard work and patience finally I got selected for Google summer of code 2015 under Plone Foundation. This is the introductory blog. 



What is the purpose of this blog ?

This blog will contain all summary of all the work done during my project and also the new things I will learn during that period.


Why a separate blog ?

A separate blog is a good idea to keep the track of the work that has been done during the project and my old blog contains few things that are not related to this project so to keep the project recored neat and clean this is the best way. 


Hope you enjoy this blog. I will try to share all the new technologies I will learn during this summer same as I did in my other blog.

Summarizing Summer

It was a great pleasure to work with great coders/developers at Plone Foundation and learning a lot from them during the course of the program. This blog is about summarizing the whole work I have done during this summer under Google summer of code 2016 under Plone Foundation. So my project mainly focuses on improving forms in plone for dexterity. We already have forms in plone for archetype. So there is a project named collective.easyform which basically provide forms for Plone as dexterity contenttype. The main focus of the project was to improve that code base. Make this stable for plone 5.0 and above. Make all the test cases passing for the code base. Try to cover tests as much as possible code base. Also implement functionalities for fields/actions of the forms in correct place. Make the plone more user friendly. Finally for users who want to migrate their already present forms in Plone Form Gen (PFG) which is archetype to easyforms which are dexterity based forms Plone. This w...

Testing the transform

Hello everyone, now the transform for filtering html is ready and the main task is to test the transform. For that purpose I have set up the whole test environment for my add-on using testing.py for unit tests and robot tests. After setting up the environment, now its time to first write unit test for transform that we have just created to check if they are all passing and the transform is working properly or not. For creating unit test I first created test class and in that class I just call the convert function that we have created in the transform and give the input as a data stream and pass it to convert function and then get the output as required. After writing few simple test cases like 30-35 then just ran these test cases and they ran successfully. Test cases ran successfully locally :- Travis is also happy ;) Yayayay!!! Finally test cases were passing so its like a milestone for the project and its completed. The PR got merged and things working good as expect...

One Last Time

Okay. So finally the list of GSOC'16 selected students is out and I am glad that my project got selected under Plone Foundation. I am really looking forward to work on my project which is basically improving the add-on named easyforms. I have already started working on the same project and will plan with my mentor for future work. I will keep this blog updated with the work I will be doing during the project as I did last summer too. Cheers.
