Solution gets out of sync in translation #248

Open bkaestner opened 8 years ago

bkaestner commented 8 years ago

When one works quite a while on a translation and then saves, the solution can get out of sync with the one used in the tests:

  1. Translate a kata (might only occur after some time)
  2. Save
  3. Change the solution
  4. ??? (Tests get applied on the old solution)
  5. Reload.
  6. Save again.
  7. Publish.

Related to this, I find editing the translation in the code-wars session can cause all lines to throw "not an expression" or missing ";", etc. However, in a perfect submission, i.e. if all tests, solution and starter solution are entered, saved and run at the same time (without any prior editing/saving) then the translation is compiled and tested as expected.

I even published a java translation after all tests passed in code-wars, edited the description after publishing and then re-running caused a compilation error on every line.

My previous experience was similar, but in JavaScript. I haven't tried again afterwards.
