Now you will feel the full force of our Drupal-based website crushing down upon you base, killing your doodz with Open Source goodness.
So much was learned at the search sprint. First, I'd like to take the time to thank Chad for hosting us. I'd also like to thank everyone that came and participated. Sometimes it was slow going, but there were definitely large and important conclusions found. It was a great experience; not only did it focus on Drupal's search implementation/frame-work, but it also covered a wider aspect of information/problems such as unit testing and what a framework should cover just to name a couple. First, lets go over the reason we were there in the first place.

I know that most people know "search" is pretty important, but to me, it can be the bread-and-butter of a site/application. When one thinks of search, usually some little white box comes to mind in which you type some arbitrary input into, and you get a list of outputs; however, search is so much more.

This module had a few complex elements to it, in addition to the regular drupal node functionality, such as web service calls and permissions checks, which made testing the module itself far too dependent on third party systems, and made testing itself exceptionally brittle.

We'll start with a common use case: checking that a username is available when a new user signs up. After you're done with this tutorial, you should be able to give the new user near-instant feedback on whether or not their username is available. I like to start at my desired result and work backwards, so that's what we'll do.
