Last week was shortened by jury duty on Monday. Fortunately, I was never selected from the pool, and on Tuesday I was back to work.

There are (still) a number of monkey failures (such as this one) that I need to get working on.

However, I discovered I could procrastinate tackling those by checking the forums. I decided to try to answer this post (which has since been addressed by a couple of my teammates). Almost two days later, I conceded that it’s really really hard to try to cluster the underlying javax.swing.text.AbstractDocument of a JTextField. I still haven’t got it. (See gkeim’s response for a clever workaround.)

I finished up the week by working on droid. One of my peers was having trouble running a test in which he wanted one of the spawned workers to have a different tc-config than all the others. There are some weird subtleties in passing vm arguments through the agent which are intended for the worker, but as it turned out, I believe the functionality is already there and didn’t require any changes on my part, just an explanation of how to do it.
