A simple multilanguage faq
Project description
Introduction
This product adds support for FAQ’s in Plone. It defines Archetypes-based content types “FAQ Item”, “FAQ Folder” and “FAQ group”. It defines two views for the “FAQ folder” type. For all content types, you can set a content object’s language using the “Language” field.
Features:
Two views for a FAQ Folder:
index_view shows links to FAQ Items in the FAQ Folder
all_view shows FAQ Items and their answers on one page
A viewlet on FAQ Items which displays a link to the contact form.
The FAQ Folder’s views are available also on a Topic, so you can compose Topics of FAQ Items according to your own criteria and view them in the same way you would view a FAQ Folder.
In a CollectionPortlet with id faq, links will be opened in an overlay.

Detailed information
This is a full-blown functional test. The emphasis here is on testing what the user may input and see, and the system is largely tested as a black box. We use PloneTestCase to set up this test as well, so we have a full Plone site to play with. We can inspect the state of the portal, e.g. using self.portal and self.folder, but it is often frowned upon since you are not treating the system as a black box. Also, if you, for example, log in or set roles using calls like self.setRoles(), these are not reflected in the test browser, which runs as a separate session.
Being a doctest, we can tell a story here.
First, we must perform some setup. We use the testbrowser that is shipped with Five, as this provides proper Zope 2 integration. Most of the documentation, though, is in the underlying zope.testbrower package.
>>> from Products.Five.testbrowser import Browser >>> browser = Browser() >>> portal_url = self.portal.absolute_url()
The following is useful when writing and debugging testbrowser tests. It lets us see all error messages in the error_log.
>>> self.portal.error_log._ignored_exceptions = ()
With that in place, we can go to the portal front page and log in. We will do this using the default user from PloneTestCase:
>>> from Products.PloneTestCase.setup import portal_owner, default_password>>> browser.open(portal_url)
We have the login portlet, so let’s use that.
>>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_name').value = portal_owner >>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_password').value = default_password >>> browser.getControl(name='submit').click()
Here, we set the value of the fields on the login form and then simulate a submit click.
We then test that we are still on the portal front page:
>>> browser.url == portal_url True
And we ensure that we get the friendly logged-in message:
>>> "You are now logged in" in browser.contents True
The FaqGroup content type
In this section we are tesing the FaqGroup content type by performing basic operations like adding, updadating and deleting FaqGroup content items.
Adding a new FaqGroup content item
We use the ‘Add new’ menu to add a new content item.
>>> browser.getLink('Add new').click()
Then we select the type of item we want to add. In this case we select ‘FaqGroup’ and click the ‘Add’ button to get to the add form.
>>> browser.getControl('FaqGroup').click() >>> browser.getControl(name='form.button.Add').click() >>> 'FaqGroup' in browser.contents True
Now we fill the form and submit it.
>>> browser.getControl(name='title').value = 'FaqGroup Sample' >>> browser.getControl('Save').click() >>> 'Changes saved' in browser.contents True
And we are done! We added a new ‘FaqGroup’ content item to the portal.
Updating an existing FaqGroup content item
Let’s click on the ‘edit’ tab and update the object attribute values.
>>> browser.getLink('Edit').click() >>> browser.getControl(name='title').value = 'New FaqGroup Sample' >>> browser.getControl('Save').click()
We check that the changes were applied.
>>> 'Changes saved' in browser.contents True >>> 'New FaqGroup Sample' in browser.contents True
Removing a/an FaqGroup content item
If we go to the home page, we can see a tab with the ‘New FaqGroup Sample’ title in the global navigation tabs.
>>> browser.open(portal_url) >>> 'New FaqGroup Sample' in browser.contents True
Now we are going to delete the ‘New FaqGroup Sample’ object. First we go to the contents tab and select the ‘New FaqGroup Sample’ for deletion.
>>> browser.getLink('Contents').click() >>> browser.getControl('New FaqGroup Sample').click()
We click on the ‘Delete’ button.
>>> browser.getControl('Delete').click() >>> 'Item(s) deleted' in browser.contents True
So, if we go back to the home page, there is no longer a ‘New FaqGroup Sample’ tab.
>>> browser.open(portal_url) >>> 'New FaqGroup Sample' in browser.contents False
Adding a new FaqGroup content item as contributor
Not only site managers are allowed to add FaqGroup content items, but also site contributors.
Let’s logout and then login as ‘contributor’, a portal member that has the contributor role assigned.
>>> browser.getLink('Log out').click() >>> browser.open(portal_url) >>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_name').value = 'contributor' >>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_password').value = default_password >>> browser.getControl(name='submit').click() >>> browser.open(portal_url)
We use the ‘Add new’ menu to add a new content item.
>>> browser.getLink('Add new').click()
We select ‘FaqGroup’ and click the ‘Add’ button to get to the add form.
>>> browser.getControl('FaqGroup').click() >>> browser.getControl(name='form.button.Add').click() >>> 'FaqGroup' in browser.contents True
Now we fill the form and submit it.
>>> browser.getControl(name='title').value = 'FaqGroup Sample' >>> browser.getControl('Save').click() >>> 'Changes saved' in browser.contents True
Done! We added a new FaqGroup content item logged in as contributor.
Finally, let’s login back as manager.
>>> browser.getLink('Log out').click() >>> browser.open(portal_url) >>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_name').value = portal_owner >>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_password').value = default_password >>> browser.getControl(name='submit').click() >>> browser.open(portal_url)
