Description (last modified by Nick Draper) (diff)
The Ref gui no longer has a *.ui file, which is starting to make it a maintenance nightmare. We need to reverse engineer a ui file out of the python code.
We've been handed the GUI code, so we don't have all the expertise for all the options this GUI provides within the team, but Max would be more than happy to help us discover the options, as he was the original author. Once the GUI has been reverse engineered, we can explore making it more useable and professional looking, but we need to replicate the existing behaviour first.
See Owen Arnold for details.

This is such a monumental job, it's being split into multiple tickets, the first leg of which will be to simply replicate the original in QtDesigner

(In #8756) To Tester:
Follow the instructions on the pages.
You should be aware that I have an Autistic Spectrum Disorder and have some problems with wording things sometimes, so special attention should be paid to the spelling, grammar, possible alternative interpretations, and inferences made in the writing. I have used assistive software to help me, but things can slip through.

(In #8530) 7377 isn't directly related to this. And these system tests can be done in maintenance.

- Summary changed from Ref_gui to Refl_gui Improvements
There are no code changes against this ticket, this was grouping all the work done to it. Build a fresh copy of master to test this.
To Tester
Go through each of the tickets that were blocking this one and make sure their fixes haven't been broken by subsequent tickets.
Make sure all the features of the Reflectometry gui still work as per these docs.
- General use instructions - http://www.mantidproject.org/ISIS_Reflectometry_GUI
- Testing instructions - http://www.mantidproject.org/Testing_ISIS_Reflectometry_GUI
- Example - http://www.mantidproject.org/ISIS_Reflectometry_Examples
Note that there are some features that we know don't work and will be fixed up next release. #8814 was opened to deal with a type problem The 3-column export format hasn't been implemented Spectra list definition when exporting hasn't been implemented

comment:39 Changed 7 years ago by Nick Draper
- Milestone changed from Release 3.1 to Backlog
Moved to backlog at the end of Release 3.1
comment:40 Changed 7 years ago by Owen Arnold
- Blocking 8788 removed
(In #8788) This isn't blocked by 7377, (although it may be blocking 7377) as 7377 is blocked by 8787, which has nothing to do with this feature.
comment:41 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Blocked By 8788 added
(In #8788) Yeah, my mistake, but the number in the wrong blocker field
comment:42 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Milestone changed from Backlog to Release 3.1
Still valid for this release. This is a parent ticket so that the entire interface can be tested once other features are verified separately.
comment:43 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Blocked By 8787 removed
(In #8787) In which case I'll stop it blocking 7377 as that's just for the old gui
comment:45 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Status changed from inprogress to verify
- Resolution set to fixed
All linked tickets are now fixed. Can the tester please refer to comment:37 for how to test this ticket.
comment:46 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Status changed from verify to reopened
- Resolution fixed deleted
comment:47 Changed 7 years ago by Keith Brown
- Status changed from reopened to verify
- Resolution set to invalid
Rather than "fixed" it's now invalid as all the work is done but not on this ticket. Me and Owen will do unscripted testing on it.
comment:48 Changed 7 years ago by Jay Rainey
- Status changed from verify to verifying
- Tester set to Jay Rainey
comment:49 Changed 7 years ago by Jay Rainey
- Status changed from verifying to closed
No changes were made in this ticket, and testing of the GUI will be addressed separately as noted in comment:47. Closing as invalid.
