    3131A week into unit testing, and it seems work will never end. There are a lot of procs that need to be tested and the code is very hard to read and understand. I have managed to make a few tests, but only with the help of my mentors (our weekly meeting really helps a lot). For the next week, I want to increase the pace and put as much time as I can into development.

     35Things are getting better and better, as I need less and less help from my mentors. I have managed to cover 3 of the modules of port1.0 (portactivate, portclean and portutil), but I have developed enough confidence to step up the pace and increase my developing speed. The tcltest framework really seems a great fit for our needs, fact confirmed by Rainer. Still a lot of work needs to be done, and as wee discussed on our last meeting, we may need to reorder some things in our roadmap for this summer, but not after we talk to the rest of the community and listen to the other developers' opinions.

     37The need for good documentation is really felt, once I dig deeper into the functionality of MacPorts, so I will make sure the test I develop come with good instructions on how to use the framework, add new tests to it or change it. I have already started with short comments in the code and some README files that will help me write the final documentation. The midterm evaluations is near, so I'd better get back to work.
