Quality Management for Purebasic.

Hello Fred,
unfortunately new bugs have appeared in the current version, which did not exist before.

- Purebasic IDE crash on macOS with touchbar
- Linux lib image.
- Purebasic IDE crash on linux with open procedure list.

With a new version, all functionalities would have to be tested, if all work as described.

But you can't do that alone.

There are probably many here who would do this task with different areas (Windows - gadgets, images, drawing, etc).

To do this, many automated test programs would have to be written and automatically evaluated.

I would be happy if many of them are willing to do this.

Hello everyone,

I would like to add to the bug list under linux OS a very annoying problem :

- Compiling a large project (like 30 000 lines or more) with the debugger on and the crash that follow.

The workaround I'm currently using is to put a MessageRequester() where I want to see what is going on but this not as versatile as the Debugger output. And this bug as been reported to Fred few years ago. Since I'm writing my code in OOP Style now (See Dev-Object source code) I'm able to test objects individually but what happen when the bugs appear due to inter-action between two objects or more ? They became very hard to track down.

Best regards

There are many people willing to take part in the test.
The problem is that we need to find the person who will lead them and this person should have a trusting relationship with Fred.

I will take a look to these issues. We have a lot of unit tests which runs automatically to check library commands, but it doesn't cover a lot of GUI based elements, as it's not easy to check visually. We will try to find a way to automate this even more.
