"Test Server" button for each server in Config/Server screen

Post by sander »

Hi, a feature request:

I think it would be useful to have a "Test Server" button for each server  in Config/Server screen

I saw in the trunk version (2009-03-02) that after filling out a server in the setup wizard, you can test the server. That's a great feature: you can verify the server setup (server name, username/pw) and the server itself.

I think it would be great to have that test-server-button next to each server filled out in the Config/Server screen:
- good to check if a existing server is working
- good to check if a newly filled out server is OK

The Test Server button will be moved to other templates, I am just waiting till the feature is fully tested before it moves from the wizard.

Also trying to think how best to do it on the Default template without javascript.

Why this reservation? "Default" already contains Java.

It does make use of javascript (not java), however it doesn't ship with a javascript framework which makes things like XMLHttpRequests, innerHtml changes and so on that much easier.Just debating whether to include something like jQuery for that page, to write the javascript myself, or to use a pop-up window or something.
