[Bug 612745] Re: Functional tests with a unicode file name on Mac OS X

 

I think that the rev. 138 of the branch lp:~claude-
bolduc/slidepresenterview/choose-projector-screens fixes that. Right?

Title:
  Functional tests with a unicode file name on Mac OS X

Status in SlidePresenterView - Console for presenters:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Mac OS X stores files names with Unicode characters with a different decomposition format than on GNU/Linux. Bzr has some trouble to handle that (see http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/UnicodeSupport#Mac%20OS%20X%20issues) and to make the transition between different OS. We can have files reported has not versionned, two files, etc. and it can be worse when we manipulate those files in some tests.

So, we must avoid Unicode characters but we still want to test with Unicode file names in our functional tests. My proposition is :
  1) Remove those files from bzr.
  2) Generate those files within the test

 BTW, we have many duplications in test's resources. Auto-generating files inside the test from a template will be better anyway.
