[gentoo-soc] Council web app - weekly report #4

[Joachim Filip Bartosik]

(Note: this is c&p from my blog [0])

Last week I used metrical[1] on the web app and improved tests coverage
and variable naming. I also removed some stuff it reported as “code
duplication”. Metrical warned about some stuff, but I couldn’t find a
reasonable way to fix it.

I tried to switch to capybara-webkit[2] for cucumber tests but I
couldn’t find a way to remove session cookies (and I need it to test
“Remember me” feature) so I made a feature request[3] (including a
suggested patch) and I’m waiting.

I added
#option add
#option remove
#option list

commands to MeetBot[4] to allow changing voting options during meeting
(I must do some work on the webapp end to handle added and removed
option properly).

I also improved tests for my changes to MeetBot[4] and wrote test for
Reminder (the Supybot[5]  plugin I wrote last week[6]).
