Eek, I started mixing up ztk and zope.app I didn't look too deep into Zope2 because my intention was more for asking whether packages like zope.app.appsetup need to be tested and they are only part of ztk 1.0 zopeapp.cfg, but now I had second look into versions.cfg of zope and plone and I am seeing that the latest plone still pins versions of ztk 1.0 zopeapp, and zope.app.appsetup even is a dependency somewhere in plone. Aww, too bad. Best regards, Patrick On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 4:57 PM, Hanno Schlichting <hanno@hannosch.eu> wrote:

Well, the question is, is there still a need for ztk 1.0 tests? If so, who are the consumers and for how long should we run the tests for 1.0?
Zope 2.13 is based on the ZTK 1.0. There's no version of Zope 2 that uses ZTK 1.1 and a potential Zope 4 is aiming at a future ZTK 1.2 (currently ZTK master).
So from Zope 2's and Plone's perspective the ZTK 1.0 tests are vital and should be supported for the next couple of years. The only difference is that Zope 2 requires at least Python 2.6, so testing Python 2.5 + ZTK 1.0 isn't required.
And this shouldn't be all too hard, as there's no major differences between ZTK 1.0 and 1.1.
