Hello, I’m a Google Summer of Code[1] student developer at KDE working on integrating XFSTests with KDE’s KIO-FUSE[2]. KIO is a KDE framework that provides and implements abstractions for accessing various types of (virtual) filesystems in a cross-platform way. KIO-FUSE is a project that lets you mount remote locations on your machine locally using FUSE. We’re anticipating that integrating XFSTESTS with KIO-FUSE would help us uncover previously undetected bugs in KIO-FUSE and KIO-slaves[3] (ioslaves) as well as the various protocols themselves. You can read a brief summary of the project by visiting the following link: Integrating XFSTests with KDE KIO-FUSE[4]. As a part of the project, I’ll be adding FUSE support to XFSTests. While a patch[5] was submitted for this, it seems to be abandoned. I’m aiming to build on the mentioned patch, improve & test it after rectifying the errors pointed out by the reviewer. Some main changes that I will be making are -- I] changing $SUBTYP to $FUSE_SUBTYP II] removing the added check case in `scratch_cleanup_files()` Is there anything I should keep in mind or need to look out for while working on this? Thank you.
