Not so fast. For example, glennj’s test case proposal if after first 20 posts and is not included in JSON. I need to investigate further.
You don’t need to retrieve anything from the forum. You can copy/paste into your editor. You can use existing solution code to generator and/or check the expected output. If you want to be fancy/thorough, you can use your existing solution along with a JSON parser to validate the data in the canonical data … or, on tracks with a test generator, generate tests using the new data.
I made all checks I could do for latest pull request.
It got 3 approvals and has been merged.
FYI, this is what is looks like to PR the new test into a track:
an updated test for multiword translation by glennj · Pull Request #198 · exercism/moonscript

Test generators FTW!
Can I help with any PR to update test in a track? I can handle F# for sure.
Cool! Test generators are really a good help. I remember working on test generator on groovy track, so maybe this track can be updated via test generator too.
F# is maintained by Erik. He’s generally open to sync PRs. Make sure you read all the instructions and use the configlet sync tool. F# has a generators directory but I have no idea how they work. The README has some light documentation.
If you’re looking for places to help out, @BNAndras and I have been writing generator templates. See CoffeeScript, Objective C, GDScript. I’m hoping to start on C templates soon, too.
Maintainers got busy lives and sometimes take a while until they can review. No need to ping. Give Erik some time :)
