Latest News: Add news on Unit Tests for address bok.
== Latest News ==
=== 30 Nov 2007, Automated Tests for Address Book. === We've just checked in {{bug|405147}} on trunk. This has provided automated unit tests for some of the nsIAbDirectory functionality (or specifically the nsAbMDBDirectory implementation of it - the Mork-based local address books). The unit tests will be run every time the [http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/ SeaMonkey tinderbox] build SeaMonkey on Linux. We hope to be extending it to one of the [http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/Thunderbird/ Thunderbird tinderboxes] soon {{bug|406227}}. This is good news for us, as it'll mean regressions in functions will be quickly picked up, and it also provides us with a basis to extend the unit tests to more areas of address book, and into the rest of MailNews. More information about the automated tests can be found here: [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Mozilla_automated_testing] === 22 Nov 2007, Palm Sync re-enabled on SeaMonkey trunk builds ====
With thanks to some help from the Mozilla build team, we've now got Palm Sync re-enabled for SeaMonkey's main trunk builds. This should help with testing. We hope Thunderbird will follow soon ({{bug|405012}}).
You can try out the new functionality in the latest SeaMonkey 2.0a/Thunderbird 3.0a nightly builds.
 
=== 08 Mar 2007, Overriding the default LDAP Address Book schema ===
 
Recently I checked in ({{bug|370004}}) which means all the functionality relating to overriding the default LDAP Address Book schema should now work in SeaMonkey 1.1.1 (and above) and Thunderbird 2.0 (when released).
 
I've also got round to writing [[MailNews:LDAP Address Books|brief documentation]] on how to do it.
 
=== 10 Feb 2007, csv import/export - Multi-line notes ===
 
I checked in {{bug|182128}} earlier today (into trunk) which now means notes on multiple lines are supported in csv files. You'll be able to try this functionality out in the latest SeaMonkey 2.0a/Thunderbird 3.0a nightly builds.
