I so wish there was a way not to mess with files under git's control. Can that option be exposed through the local user config file? On May 31, 2013 6:59 PM, "Ori Livneh" ori@wikimedia.org wrote:

This is an awesome news! Just to through some magic dust into gears - has anyone succeeded in running it under windows? Alternativelly, I wouldn't mind having a vagrant VM that includes GUI & a browser so that no host interaction is needed.
The tests run on Firefox / X11 on the guest VM. To invoke them from a 'vagrant ssh' session, though, you need an X display server. Graphical Linuxes have all the prerequisites installed, and on OS X you just need to install XQuartz. On Windows, people have good things to say about NoMachine (http://www.nomachine.com/download-client-windows.php) but I haven't tested it myself and while the client is free as in beer, it is not open source.
There is another alternative that you'll probably find simpler: edit your Vagrantfile and find these two lines:
# To boot the VM in graphical mode, uncomment the following line: # vb.gui = true
Uncomment the second line and do a vagrant halt / vagrant up. You'll then be able to run the browser tests on an X display server running on the guest VM. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
