[TW5] A question about testing new BobEXE features

[Jed Carty]

Over the past two weeks I have made many improvements to Bob, like duplicating, renaming/moving or deleting wikis from inside the wiki and setting up the file server is now much much simpler and can be done from inside the wiki. And you can make all of your images go into an external folder by clicking a button.

Also the server can now send alerts to the browser to let you know when things have happened, like creating a new wiki.

With changes like this there are always many many bugs. I have been trying to not use my usual 'push the changes and fix bugs as people report them' methods and actually do testing, which is why it hasn't been released yet.

But testing is boring and at this rate I will just keep adding things and never build another BobEXE release.

Does anyone want to help test out the probably very unstable and may have terrible bugs like deleting all of your wikis BobEXE versions so that the stable versions can be released in a reasonable time?

I would need to find a way to distribute them because GitHub doesn't give a way to list unstable releases separately and I imagine most people will just pick the top one so I don't want to release it there.

Jed, I'd be happy to help. Give me an address for the version you want testing. And maybe with a note of what is new---so I can concentrate on trying to get it to fail?

Would you like feedback here or on GitHub?

Best wishes
