Hi team I need some advice regarding Social module and tests. Most of the job of the module is to dialog with remote services. I don't feel like mocking Twitter or LinkedIn service behavior to create my test. Do you have any suggestion to set those tests ? for the moment, all I see is to create a test account on these services to post update and request timeline, but it won't really test OAuth authentication since this ask user interaction. Any thought ?

Any thought ? Hi Antoine, I will try to write an ftest for the social web-client example with Selenium this week, using some test account. I'll let you know how it went, hopefully with a pull request :) I think it makes sense to also have unit tests for those parts that do not require a browser... Cheers, Marek -- Marek Schmidt Seam QE

Don't they have test accounts devs can use to try their integration apis? I know many third party services I've used in the past have these already setup to exercise their full API.
