[QA] Pair programming Friday for fun and profit

[Tony Thomas]

Hi,
   Zeljko and I paired last Wednesday @ 2:00 - 3:00 pm UTC to work on the
bug as he wrote. I had problems setting my machine for the browsertests. I
had problems installing the correct rvm version. installing and using the
correct gem version. It took a while, and we both had some internet issues
too. I told him we can have another meet once I had completed configuring
my system. It took me a while though to get all the stuff configured
correctly.
    The main problem persistant was with the virtualbox guest additions v
4.12. I talked many times on their IRC and found a way to manually install
the guest additions by the iso, mounted inside the virtual machine and
running the install. That worked out. Now, the exec bundle cucumber brings
up the  browser with the tests. The tests features are running correctly
too.
    Zeljko and I have planned for another meetup this wednesday(22 /01)
2:30 pm UTC. Hope we can get it done by that day.
