Want a nice _and_ reliable application for and desktops (& !) in general, based on the @EvolutionGnome data server?

Know some and looking for a well-scoped challenge to get your feet wet and put those skills to use in ?

could really use your help to write unit tests, so that we can use for all timezones-related code and make it reliable. Now is the time!

If anyone is wondering why the GNOME Calendar codebase looks scared of automated tests: it _should_ be. 😏

The goal is that maintainers hunting and eliminating timezone/DST/spec-compliance-related bugs should have to fly through this crazy network of defensive lasers, er, tests, before landing mission-critical code in the future: youtube.com/watch?v=Lx81lV3smN

@nekohayo My biggest hope: that the annoying alarm at 11:00 (10:00 DST, or the other way around) bug is finally found and fixed.

@nekohayo Hmm, evolution-data-server's CI just seems to build the flatpak, which runs the test suite and that's that.

It may be useful to get some coverage information... there's cmake/modules/CodeCoverageGCOV.cmake at least.

@nekohayo @EvolutionGnome evolution is my preferred calendaring app due to the fact that it's the only fucking thing that actually works with all of my work stuff. I honestly wish I could take it with me on my phone, which currently doesn't run Linux...
