Thread: Status of Summer of Code Projects?
All, Well, we've been hearing from Florian on the -hackers list. However, both mentors and students have been very quiet otherwise. I'd like to have an update on current status from the other six projects. Have you started? How are things going? Are you in active contact with your mentors? Please keep us updated on what's happening! -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

The idea is to get the functionality correct first and then concentrate on efficiency. He will post a patch when he has one. He and I are in touch, and we will be making sure we are more so. cheers andrew

The webpage is available on PGFoundry: http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgunittest/ You can see that the CVS is updated quite often. The goal of this Java program is to describe in a script (or XML file) unit tests on queries (SELECT and INSERT queries) and then to run those unit tests and see if anyone fails. It is like JUnit but for database queries, that is why the name is pgUnit[Test]. The application has already thousands of lines (I made a small PERL script to count them): it parses input (from a script parsed with JavaCC or an XML file) and writes output. But in fact it does nothing at this moment: all the software structure is ready and has been unit tested, so everything should be easy to integrate now. There is also a quite good documentation with a specs file, a design file, UML diagrams and Javadoc in order to make the application readable easily. I am currently working on INSERT unit tests and the generators (powerful generators). I keep my mentor updated with a status report each week (I need to write one for this week!). I work faster than I scheduled so, when I will have finished, I will focus on TPC benchmarks with my mentor. Regards, Mickael

My mentor has been asking continuously, but different reasons has been kept me a little away. I hope soon I will be able to bring some patches. I'm using Mercurial and I had set a mirror of CVS HEAD, which is located at http://www.ubiobio.cl/~gpoo/pgsql/ and a cron job keeps updated every hour (if changes are made). I'll upload my branch there also. Regards, -- Germán Poó Caamaño Concepción - Chile http://www.gnome.org/~gpoo/
