Allow the rules DSL & GUI component to operate on existing collections to allow filtering, sorting, modifying identifiers and general re-organization of existing collections (e.g. the outputs of tools). Implementing this as a collection operation tool so that it should be executable interactively in the tool form and in a batch fashion as part of workflow executions.
For this to be tracked properly as a tool execution and to work properly in the tool form, I've implemented a new tool framework and tool form parameter type called "rules".
This can thought of as a more GUI friendly alternative to my proposed collection operations that consumed JavaScript expressions.
This includes API tests for both tool and workflow execution of the new tool as well as Selenium tests for tool form execution, workflow editor interactions, and workflow running.
This directory contains tools only useful for testing and
demonstrating aspects of the tool syntax. Run the test driver script
'run_tests.sh' with the '-framework' as first argument to run through
these tests. Pass in an '-id' along with one of these tool ids to test
a single tool.
Some API tests use these tools to test various features of the API,
tool, and workflow subsystems. Pass the argument
'-with_framework_test_tools' to 'run_tests.sh' in addition to '-api'
to ensure these tools get loaded during the testing process.
Finally, to play around with these tools interactively - simply
replace the 'galaxy.ini' option 'tool_config_file' with:
tool_config_file = test/functional/tools/samples_tool_conf.xml
