Wanted to get some low hanging fruit tickets done for Questlog. Well I also decided to create more robust testing and now I finished the first task after 3 minutes and fighting Pest for 27 minutes now.
Why in all seven hells is Game::factory()->count(5)->create(); not creating 5 games? It's always 2 or 3. Never 5. This is absolutely infuriating…
I just wanted to get my list shorter and don't break stuff while I do.
The fun part? Also creating all 5 games manually fails. Without any log or something like that…
Oof. This was a really stupid error… My factory generated games with different categories. Main Game, DLC/AddOn and Expansion.
But the view I was testing filtered games by Main Game only… So by chance it was extremely unlikely that every game is a Main Game and so the count never was 5.
I'm glad I marked some tasks as "low hanging fruit" while I had no time or energy to work on Questlog.
This way I was able to complete 5 small tasks, while my child slept, that were in my head for a long time, as I didn't need to search for issues but had a list I just could work through.
@kaiserkiwi You're in good company, mate! This kind of thing happens to all of us at some point. While working on a search engine issue at my former job, I spent probably 2 hours on a bug like this, only to stumble upon the fact that I forgot to clear a secondary filter out of the gui tool that I was using to do test searches. :facepalm:
Glad you figured out your "filtering" issue! They can be really frustrating.
