bigvisiblecruise's Issues

Connectivity issue message should be BIG

The connectivity issue message can't be read by anyone - which is
uncharacteristic given the expected usage of BigVisibleCruise

A Patch with redesign to use mocks instead of using test-only Methods

This patch is just my own kind of "clean up", that I thought was necessary
before getting stuck into adding some of the features I'm thinking of.

1) There's some use of 3.5 features thrown in, where I think they should be
2) Sorry, I couldn't stand the 'cursive' font for the 3 URL settings, so I
made some minor changes there
3) Most importantly, I basically redesigned HttpProjectXmlResolver...

I didn't like the way that there was a lot of code in that class, *only*
for testing. 2 static methods and one property. And also methods that used
the test-only property were modified especially to cater for testing (like
setting a member instead of returning a value

I hope you find this redesign cleaner. 
I wrote the class without relying on test-only methods, and just wrote it,
without any contrivance. 
Created an IWebClient interface, and implemented it, so that I could mock
out calls to WebClient.DownloadString.

I did a little 'extract method' and I think the code looks cleaner and so
do the tests, and there's much less code in those tests now too.

There is still 1 test failing, but that's how it was when I got it.

Check/watch the config file for changes so can be changed without restarting

This has come up as "nice to have" while we've been using it.
Would be nice to avoid restarting for some properties to take effect.

Patch For Configuration URL validations

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to Open BVC settings
2. Enter Url
3. Click Validate

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect URL to be validated based on a dashboard url being used, but
it returns an error unless you enter a URL with the XmlStatusReport.aspx on
the end.

The patch includes a fix so that it validates any of the following types of
Urls:

http://ccnetlive.thoughtworks.com/ccnet
http://ccnetlive.thoughtworks.com/ccnet/
http://ccnetlive.thoughtworks.com/ccnet/viewFarmReport.aspx

Also, two unit tests failed when I pulled source, so I updated those and
added integration tests to validate the above.

Would like to see it automatically reload the configuration when it

Installer for BVC

I like the application and how it works, but I did find the installation
process a little disappointing.

However, rather than complain about it, I decided to put together an
installer for it - I hope you like it.

Mapping of project names to specified names for display.

Provide the ability to modify project names. Currently, the project name is
shown directly as it is reported from cruise. This enhancement would allow
the capability to map project names to a specified name.

A configuration modification would need to exist. Something like
"MyCruiseName= My Renamed Project"

The initial need of this request was to provide the ability to send out
screenshots without exposing internal project names.

Filter Projects

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install BVC
2. Point it at a CCNET server
3. Run it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I have 35 small projects on this CCNET server and so I have a lot of very 
small boxes.  Would like ability to easily pick or filter projects from 
BVC config.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.1 / vista

Please provide any additional information below.

Save not working as expected in settings.

When you save, it does not update the dashboard url in the configuration.

If you validate and then save, everything works as expected.

Intermitent connectivity causes crash.

If network connectivity is interrupted, the app crashes.

Not sure how this should be handled, but it's likely that the recovery
should be graceful and inform the user that connectivity was broken and
then re-establish when possible.

Allow for multiple ccnet servers in a single instance of bvc

It would be very helpful to allow a single instance of bvc to query

Word wrapping for each project

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create many projects (about 46) with long names in them.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the project names on the screen to wrap so that the font looks
natural. At the moment, the project names look squished.

Windows XP, BVC 1.2

Please provide any additional information below.

Allow wildcards (or regex) in the project include list

Instead of configuring this way:

<setting name="ProjectNamesToInclude" serializeAs="Xml">
        <value>
          <ArrayOfString xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

            <string>Web (branches-8.x)</string>
          </ArrayOfString>
        </value>
      </setting>

...perhaps we can configure this way:

<setting name="ProjectNamesToInclude" serializeAs="Xml">
        <value>
          <ArrayOfString xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Indication of volunteered to fix build.

From the ccnet-user list...

Very low-priority feature request..
Something I'd like to see (in CCTray as well) is an at-a-glance
indicator for when someone has volunteered to fix a build  - In
CCTray, the text is nice, but as my workspace screen gets cluttered,
that column is usually the first to be downsized into nothing. Maybe
turn the ball/box blue (which has a nice 'medical' connotation)?

BVC CPU usages goes to 100% if CC.Net dashboard server reboots

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run BVC overnight with a server that reboots itself
2. Notice in the morning CPU is pegged at 100%

Problem:
The 3 second timer used to close the HumaneMessageWindow displaying the
connection error does not stop itself and continues firing every 3 seconds.
 Every time BVC refreshes itself and is unable to contact the server, it
spawns another HumaneMessageWindow which creates another timer.  The number
of timers firing every 3 seconds increases over time until the CPU usage is
pegged at 100%.

Solution:
Add the following line to HumangeMessageWindow::Timer_Tick():
((DispatcherTimer)sender).Stop();

Ability to filter projects.

BVC currently returns everything that is available through the CCNet
dashboard. It would be nice to filter the results that are displayed so
that the display can show a subset of the projects that are being monitored
by the dashboard.

Move projects into 1

I can't see any need for having 4 assemblies in such a simple app
(BigVisibleCruise and CruiseControlToys and tests for each).

I've included a patch based on commit 125 (latest at time of writing)
This has just 2 assemblies (BigVisibleCruise and BigVisibleCruise.Tests)

This argument changed my mind a little -

Show the breakers and fixer for a project

Shows the fixer of a broken build (if one has volunteerd to fix the build).
If you use the latest builds of CCNet, it will also show the breakers of a
project.

The code is compliant with other CC, if they do not supply this information,
it is discarded (empty string used).

New patch with tests on the latest source (v1.2)
previous patch was on source 0.7

The category element is also added, but not used for the moment,
this will be used for a project filter.

This reads a list of projects from the settings file.
To include the projects it goes like this.

Patch to use color gradients for project background

Patch to use (subtle) gradients for all colors.

In this patch, I needed to make the green for "Success" slightly lighter
because black text on Green didn't work so well.

This is a "first pass", in that I know there are several ways to improve
the code (redundancy and duplication) - but we can work on improving this.

'Unknown' build status causes an application crash.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. CCNet Dashboard has a project with a Last Build Status of 'Unknown'
2. Run BVC against the dashboard.
3. Watch BVC crash.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect to see a fall-through color indicating some alternative state.
Instead, the app crashes.

Here is a sample test to reproduce (the test assumes that we want the
background to be white for an 'Unknown' status)...
