Known Testing Issues

Posted . Visible to the public.

There are multiple known issues, when testing code:

  • "Garbage Collection"
    Typically tests clean up databases and stuff for themselves. Things like changing global variables etc. anyhow are not cleaned up thus sometimes resulting in errors induced by other tests.

  • Concurrency of Code
    AJAX Requests might be faster then Capybara but this needn't be always the case. "Patiently do"ing something ensures test code don't fail to soon.

  • Concurrency of Tests
    The usage of javascript on selenium browsers might induce errors when selecting and focusing etc. are used in a large extend. Checkout Hennings card to blur and focus: https://makandracards.com/makandra/12661-how-to-solve-selenium-focus-issues
