Status of the driver

[stof]

Hello,

I'm one of the lead developers of Mink. I would like to know how to consider this driver. Do you plan to maintain it actively ? In yes, we could link to it in the official doc (creating a new section about third-party drivers) once the driver is updated to be compatible with Mink 1.6 (current stable). I can do a full review of the driver in this case, if you want to help you improving it.

Hi Stof

Yes, I'm planning on maintaining it actively. It's been on hold a bit because I've been waiting for my CTO to respond to an email asking how to open source this thing properly since I spent some company time working on it (I work at Etsy). I'd be happy for it to be considered as an "official" mink driver and I'm happy to help with whatever is needed (making sure the test suite passes for example).

@bertrandmoulard if you continue to maintain it (and if your company agrees about this in case it is coming from work stuff), the repo could even be moved the minkphp organization to become an official driver in the future (it requires passing the Mink 1.6 driver testsuite first).

Quick update on this. I updated the travis config so QT and capybara-webkit get installed on the build boxes. The tests are all passing locally but most of them are failing on travis. I think it's because those tests rely on a function that start a http server, and maybe travis won't let the tests do that. I'm not sure yet.

Hi there, the build is now passing in travis ci. What's the next step to become more official?

Hi Christophe

I put this on hold for a while but I have some time work on it again now.
If I work on making is pass the Mink driver test suite, do you think it has
a future as a official mink driver?

thanks

If you continue to help maintaining it once it is official, yes.

[bertrandmoulard]

Great, then I'll start working on that test suite. I might hit you up for
help along the way if I get stuck.

thanks!
