Hello World!

New release is out there!

Major new enhancements and bug fixes include better performance in big projects and new mechanism for excluding directories so that they are not loaded to RIDE.

New downloads can be found from:
https://github.com/robotframework/RIDE/downloads

OR you can install RIDE from PyPI:
pip install -U robotframework-ride

There is a debug print in the new exclude mechanism.

If this becomes a problem to you please comment the issue ( http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-ride/issues/detail?id=1100 ).

Hi,

I guess this is related to the debug prints that I accidentally added. 2*1776 > 3000 lines of prints could easily take 6 seconds to do. I suggest that you do not yet use the new exclude mechanism.

10 seconds in 0.51 doesn't sound extremely bad. So has the performance improved since reporting http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-ride/issues/detail?id=1010 and before 0.52?

On first try of the new “Exclude Folder” feature, it actually makes the load time worse.  When you right-click and exclude a folder (In my case a “~Files” folder that contains files the app uses, not resources or test suites), then close RIDE and then re-open RIDE, the CMD window in which you run the RIDE command shows lines like this:

 

path u'c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\000_sandbox\\'

excludes ['c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\~files\\']

path u'c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\000_sandbox\\0000_force_fatal_error.txt\\'

excludes ['c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\~files\\']

path u'c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\000_sandbox\\examples\\'

excludes ['c:\\_svn_\\coretests_preroy_svn\\coretests\\calcplatform\\~files\\']

 

For every one of the 1776 test suites in my project.  This took about 16 seconds execution time compared to about 10 seconds to load in both version 0.51 and in 0.52 before I did the Exclude Folder.

 

Is this time just taken up in writing these log messages, or in the work behind the log messages?

 

Thanks,

Martin

Sorry, on this example I can’t comment about pre-0.51 results ‘cause I only started working on this project since 0.51 was out.  I may be able to do some 0.50 to 0.51. to 0.52 comparisons with other projects that I’ve worked on longer.

 

Do you plan to re-release 0.52 with the debug prints removed?

 

Thanks,

Martin

Hello,

New minor release 0.52.1 is now available. It removes the debug prints that were present when using exclude mechanism in version 0.52.

New minor release 0.52.2.

We discovered an issue that prevented new users from getting RIDE running if configuration file directory did not exists.

If you have any kinds of problems with your RIDE installation please post an issue to the issue tracker:
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-ride/issues/list
