WPT location reorganization
My tool pulls locations dynamically using getLocations.php and uses the location ID when submitting tests as the location. My team noticed that the list has changed in the last day or two. I was wondering how to fix my logic to accommodate this.
So what used to be dulles: IE8 dulles: IE9 dulles: chrome dulles: Firefox etc is now broken up into dulles dulles_IE8 dulles_IE9 Where dulles has "chrome, canary, firefox, etc" listed as browsers (that's why Dulles:Firefox is not on the list anymore) Before, I would just take location and send in my runTest call: &location=(location ID) Is the way to fix this to get the ID, parse the browser list, and send location as: (locationID) : (parsed browser name) ? |

RE: WPT location reorganization
Yep. I just noticed this as well. I'm working on fixing up my script now. Thinking I'll probably do something similar to what you mentioned.

RE: WPT location reorganization
I couldn't find any docs that said the proper syntax (location.browser, location:browser, etc).. if you figure it out, can you post? I'm going to try to find time later in the week to try to code the fix

RE: WPT location reorganization
i think the locations parameter is still the same. I just tested with: /runtest.php?url=www.amazon.com&location=us-east-1:Chrome&runs=1&fvonly=1&keepua=1&f=xml&k=.... and it worked fine. So the location parameter accepts location:browser.connectivity per https://sites.google.com/a/webpagetest.o...nnectivity
So I'm going to update my code for that. |

RE: WPT location reorganization
Hey Mark, thanks... so I'll one up this piece of info...
So in my older instances I would look up location/location location/Browser but comparing XML I notice it's now location/location location/Browsers (note the extra "s") In my code I now test for location/Browsers, if I don't see it, I test for location/Browser so my code is backward compatible (my tool is designed to work across WPT installations/instances) Then I just list each.. i.e. Code: location = get nodes for (//location) |
