The sessions are now text files in regress/sessionFiles, saved with hgSession's own save to file, and the scripts load them by raw GitHub URL. rm36805, rm35580 and rm36340 pass on genome-test and hgwbeta. rm36340's session held its custom tracks as a customTrash table on genome-test. The track source is a file of its own now, loaded through hgt.customText, without two commented-out tracks whose URLs carry a password. Its first check now asks for a custom track row and the hub's row, and fails when the session file does not load. A lifted session cannot be a file: it names its quickLift hub by a path on the server that made it, and re-pointing it does not work (#38046). rm37388, rm37389 and rm38272 build that lift in steps instead, the GenArk GCA_018466835.2 mitochondrion lifted to hg38, and pass on genome-test and hgwbeta. rm38272 also fails on genome.ucsc.edu (v503) at its settings page, with the bug's own error, so it gains a release-ab proof line. diff --git src/hg/utils/docent/tests/regress/rm35580.docent.yaml src/hg/utils/docent/tests/regress/rm35580.docent.yaml index c92467a16f8..c236a9bd754 100644 --- src/hg/utils/docent/tests/regress/rm35580.docent.yaml +++ src/hg/utils/docent/tests/regress/rm35580.docent.yaml @@ -1,46 +1,47 @@ # #35580 -- "Show <alt> placed on its chromosome" errored instead of drawing the view. # # The reporter was at chr16_KI270853v1_alt:744117-744278, clicked the GRC Patches item, # and on the hgc page clicked "Show chr16_KI270853v1_alt placed on its chromosome".
