## What is this?
oh-irc-bot (or "WelcomeBot", its IRC nick) is a bot for welcoming people into the #openhatch irc channel
when no one is paying attention. The goals are to:
1. alert community members when someone new enters the room and says hello (either by using their nick
in a response, or by sending a private message)
2. help a person to feel welcome even when there's no one around, and providing more information about
staying in touch
oh-irc-bot (or "WelcomeBot", its IRC nick) is a bot for welcoming people into the #openhatch irc channel when no one is paying attention. It has two main goals: first, to alert community members when someone new enters the room and says hello (either by using their nick in a response, or by sending a private message). Second, it helps the new person to feel welcome even when there's no one around, and provides more information to them about staying in touch.

## Setting up
Currently, the bot is only compatible up to Python 2.7.

<code>
./bin/coverage run test_bot.py
./bin/coverage html

_Note_: You will likely need to install coverage. The above command assumes you have installed it to a virtual environment. If you haven't, the command to use is: <code>coverage run test_bot.py</code>
You can then see the results in `htmlcov/index.html`.

## How to help
The [issue tracker](https://github.com/shaunagm/oh-irc-bot/issues?state=open) lists improvements we want to make. I strongly encourage you to contact me and say hello before you get started (I am shauna on the #openhatch IRC). Please feel free to submit pull requests to address these issues. If you're not familiar with how to do this using github, see [here](https://openhatch.org/wiki/Git_Basics). You can also always ask me for help or clarification.

This bot was adapted from code found [here](http://wiki.shellium.org/w/Writing_an_IRC_bot_in_Python).
Also [this](http://docs.python.org/2/library/queue.html) has been very helpful.

Each dot or letter refers to a specific test being run. An F means that the test failed. An E means that there was an error.
Each dot or letter refers to a specific test being run. An F means that the test failed. An E means that there was an error. A failed test is one in which the assert statement is incorrect, whereas a test that returns an error had some bug in the test that prevented it from reaching or finishing the assert statement.
Let's take a closer look at what a failed test looks like. I'm going to generate an error by altering `test_custom_wait_time()` to specify the wrong amount in `assertEqual()`. You can cause similar test failures by changing assertions in `test_bot.py`.

If you want to expand the tests to cover a new piece of code -- either code you have written, or that someone else has - you might find [Coverage](http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage/) to be a useful tool. After installing coverage, you can run it, either in a virtual environment:
./bin/coverage run test_bot.py
./bin/coverage html
Or not in a virtual environment:
coverage run test_bot.py
coverage html
This will generate an html file which can be found by opening `htmlcov/index.html`. This file gives you a report on the percentage of code covered by tests. If you click the file being tested (not the test file, which should be covered 100%) you'll see a handy color-coded copy of the file indicated what is covered and what isn't. Each statement is either covered ("run"), not covered ("missing") or excluded. Excluded statements are excluded via the comment `pragma: no cover`, which we've used for WelcomeBot to ignore code interfacing with the socket library, as we're not sure how to test that yet.
