No analytics data created when user opens file with `Watch` tab #23

Open ben-en opened 8 years ago

ben-en commented 8 years ago

When a user clicks on a file or folder in the file list, it's added to the analytics database. When a user opens the file indirectly, it is not added to the analytics database.

StR: Browse to a folder containing video files. Click watch tab. Assert the path of the video automatically loaded in the player is not in the database.

Expected behavior: All files that are opened are logged by analytics.

I thought about the issue, haven't really arrived at a conclusion. At this point I am not sure whether it should be fixed in any way, because the requirement for collecting analytics data was to collect it for actions done by the user over specific items. In case of tabs, there is no specific item chosen, but just a kind of mode-switch, it's more of an autoplay feature. We should discuss whether these actions should be captured, and if so, how to deduce which item should be associated with it.
