Awesome! Thanks for all your hard work on this,
it's really exciting to
see so much active development going on!
Glad to help, it's really good to be able to make progress on a useful
project! I've been needing something to help me feel productive again,
and this is perfect for that... 5:)
What do people think about perhaps adding in some unit
tests so we can
make sure we don't introduce regressions as we port things over to
NewObject? I'm thinking that perhaps we could base them off of a
well-known image (like the NIST xpsp2 images).
Yep, sounds like a good idea. I've been trying to ensure that the
output is nearly word-for-word identical, but the last two modules I
did, didn't quite come out the same (one ordered the processes
differently, and the other is more just a spacing issue). Unittests
does sound like a good idea though.
Anyways, just a thought. If I have some time in the
next week I'll see
how hard it would be to implement some tests like these using the
unittest module.
Cool, I'll leave that in your department if that's ok? I'd really like
to get the internal modules completely converted so we can start
clearing out the excess code, and I can move onto the additions I'm
after. I do think unittests would be very useful though, and if they're
not too tough to write, I'd be happy to use them in any conversions I do
afterwards... 5:)
