Testing..."New Web": status is "Creation Failed" #102

Closed akinhwan closed 5 years ago

akinhwan commented 5 years ago

From the Testing tab in Scaffold, when I press "New Web" in order to create a new test from the current browser page, the "input" is https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pubmed/21249754-cancer-syndromes-internet/?from_single_result=NBK1825 and status is "Creation failed" The same url without /labs/ creates New Tests successfully that I'm able to Save. Any idea what steps I can take to generate a testCase json?

Also running tests that I populate from loaded translator PubMed.js sometimes return the status "Detection returned wrong item type" that refers to the value assigned in items[ { itemType } ] in the testCase right?

  1. That should work if the doWeb button in Scaffold successfully produces an imported item (i.e. shows the Zotero JSON for the item in the right-hand panel, followed by Translation successful. Are you sure it does that?

  2. "Detection returned wrong item type" means that the value returned by detectWeb doesn't correspond to items.itemType populated by doWeb on the same page. E.g. if detect returns journalArticle but then the item is imported as bookSection.

Edit: note that a failure of 2. will also cause 1.
