Core Tests

Core tests are performed by opening mxn/tests/core.html, visually checking the output and monitoring the JavaScript console.

  • Passes - All tests pass by visual examination and no errors are generated and displayed in the JavaScript console.
  • Fails - An individual test has failed and the test run is aborted. No further testing has taken place beyond the point of failure.
  • Not tested - either the core tests have failed and the testing could not be completed, or the map API provider hasn't yet been added to the core tests.

Core Tests Notes

Yahoo! Maps

The Yahoo! Maps API has now been taken down and is no longer supported.

GeoCommons

GeoCommons core tests fail immediately with an exception of Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'setCenterZoom' and GET http://geocommons.com/overlays/191238.json?include_features=0&include_attributes=1&include_hist_offset=1&b55113b1768d3aa&callback=jQuery17105694656672421843_1353307440839&_=1353307444138 403 (Forbidden) in the JavaScript Console.

Yandex

Yandex core tests fail immediately with an exception of Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function. This is probably due to the change of JavaScript namespace from YMap to ymap. Yandex support should be considered to be unsupported until such time as the implementation is rewritten.
