Hi all, regarding Unit-testing our plugin, we've settled on the GLib Testing framework and Unit tests written in C. Now, when doing integration testing, we will certainly try to automate a few things. Question is: does there exist a preferred scripting tool / language within the Evolution community for doing integration testing? I assume there is no preference so far, but maybe there are some thoughts about which route the Evolution project would like to take in future. Within our project it has been brought up that POSIX shell scripts might be a good choice in order to keep a low profile depencency-wise. Personally, I would prefer a higher-level scripting language which will offer more facility (esp. when it comes to mocking certain services or other complex things which will be a little bit painful to do in shell scripts). Nonetheless, I can perfectly understand the reasons if one prefers POSIX shell or something the like. This is not meant to start holy wars. Still, I'd be interested in opinions (specially from the elders here :) about the topic so we can make a good decision.
