I’ve been working on implementing translation support for the Entertainer Media Center over the last couple of weeks and it finally got merged into the main source code branch today. YAY!

The translation work will be done through launchpad’s translation web interface once rockstar gets it set up at http://translations.launchpad.net/entertainer

Unfortunately I won’t be able to help much with the actual translation work because I don’t actually speak anything but English and a little Spanish and Swahili.

Hakuna Matata and Adios!

I recently read a blog post about python-coverage. This is a module which works out how much of a python file has been used when a python file is run.

One very helpful use it can be put to is that of working out how much of a project’s source code has been covered by unit tests and I decided to try this for the Entertainer Media Center project.

What follows is how I installed and used python-coverage to work out how much of the Entertainer Source code is actually tested when all our unittests are run. I relied upon this webpage and the command line help available from python-coverage.
