Release of Screen Recorder extension

[pmensik]

Hello,

I am currently preparing first release of Arquillian Screen Recorder (you can read about this extension on my blog). So far it looks stable, there is only one known issue connected with Arquillian Core - when the Instance of TestResult is injected, it always return PASSED even if the test have failed. But it happens only with TestNG, JUnit works just fine. See also this unmerged pull request https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-core/pull/46https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-core/pull/46 (Jan Papousek already proposed a solution).

So what do you think, should we do the release or do you have any other ideas or issues you would like to discuss?

Great job, Petr.

I wonder if we should

1. move this extension as part of another extension (e.g. Drone)
   • or keep it separated
2. move it to the Arquillian repository (currently under JBoss QA)

----

For (1) I would say this extension is only usable for functional UI testing, which is exactly what Drone does.

Demoed this at DevoxxUK, great stuff. Found some problems using it with Spock/Thucydides, but mostly around those not being 100% integrated and following the same lifecycles as junit/testng.

+1 for moving it to the Arquillian Org.

? to moving it under Drone. Drone is really an extension for lifecycle mangement of 'browsers', not a general 'what ever functional testing related'. Tho I could forsee ScreenRecorder hooking in to some Drone SPI's.  Karel?

+1 for moving to arquillian.org

+1 for not making this a part of Drone. I can only think of making this supported out of the box with Drone, that is Drone can use this to record it's progress out of the box.

However, the extension could be used to record native tests, for instance, so no reason to keep it bound with Drone.

Petr, If you agree, I'll fork your repo to the Arquillian org and setup a push-group etc with you guys..

[pmensik]

Yes, I definitely agree with you and Karel, there is no reason to have it inside Drone. So let me know where you will be ready for release, thanks.

I've forked the repo to arquillian/arquillian-extension-screenrecorder and added a push/pull team.

https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-extension-screenrecorder

The team currently only consist of

papousek

for some odd reason I can't add pmensik ??

-1 forking the repo

We should rather move the arquillian-extension-screenrecorder to the arquillian repo.

Would anyone object to remove the forged repo and transfer /qa repo 's ownership to the /arquillian organization?

The forks has some really bad features - e.g. the commits contributed to them does not count as contributions:

I am definitely fine with this suggestion.
