    • You can debug the POSTs and GETs using <code>drupal_set_message($this->_content);</code> which will display the page as a message.

  • Automated Testing and Requirements Testing

    Thanks to Kiam who posted a bug at http://drupal.org/node/292242 I learned a way to properly do requirements testing to make sure the core Blog module is disabled before EveryBlog is installed.

    Automated testing looks like its the way to go to help reduce the number of bugs that show up in releases. Drupal's SimpleTest module looks like it should be pretty straight forward, and it has plenty of helper functions to make my life easier as I code up the tests.

    The new version of the module promises lots of changes.

    Development Goals:

    • Add another node-type for Blog, make two node types, Blog and Blog Entry.
      • Helps with keeping taxonomy per blog
      • Allows CCK fields per blog
    • Rework categorization to use taxonomies properly
    • Automated testing to reduce the number of bugs that make it into releases

    And much more. Check back here for more details and development updates. There is a forum for talking about EveryBlog at http://drupal.org/node/288813
