Before this change, we were looking for config files in
default locations in source control, which is not a good
place to look for them. Now `run.py` and friends have a
command line argument where users can specify the config
files.
Note that the change to server.py is only a partial fix
to make it so that bots that don't use third party config
files won't crash. That program needs an overhaul, anyway.
This makes the StateHandler functional. To reduce the
number of server roundtrips when fetching/updating the
state, the entire state is fetched ocne at bot
initialization and cached. All changes are stored in the
cache and only saved externally after handle_message()
has been executed.
Fixes#141.
With this change, StateHandler.put() does only accept JSON-able
objects by default. The incrementor test tried to store the return
value of send_reply(), a non-JSON-able MockObject, in the state.
Therefore, this commits also sets functional default test return
values for send_message() and send_reply().
Finally, it fixes the tictactoe bot which relied on directly
modifying the state_ attribute.
unittest includes by default all module-level classes that inherit
from TestCase and implement at least one method starting with 'test'.
Since it doesn't provide a convenient way for excluding TestSuites,
we need to manually filter out the unwanted testing of our test base
class itself.
This simplifies testing stateful bots by integrating the StateHandler
into the test library. As a side-effect, the mock bot handler gets
reused during a test, making the tests more realistic. The
StateHandler now keeps its state during a call to check_expected_responses,
forcing some stateful tests to be more verbose and explicit.
When testing bots with state and using type="all", it is expected that
the passed-in state will be applied for each source individually.
This commit moves away from alternating between sources for each test,
to running all the tests on each source with a copy of state_handler.
