I've been working the port to Python 3.
I've gotten all the tests in the "run_tests.py" suite passing except the one for the Yeasu FTM-3200D R. I'll probably face those passing by the end of the week.
I only have two Baofeng UV-5Rs.
Therefore, I cannot test anything else.
If having to test on web every radio is a prerequisite, it will never get done.
Are there more tests that we have, to verify functioning?
I'm learning stuff while doing this, but I'm at the end of my effort if it doesn't even have enough support to get fundamental questions answered.

I have a kenwood tmv7.
Let me know if i can help with any programming tickets as well.

Except for downloading and uploading, you can test anything that has a test image stored in the CHIRP repository. By doing this I regularly test radios that I don't to help myself or others with support.

Yeah, the clone mode radios are likely fine. The catch is the live mode radios, which don't have tests (for fairly obvious reasons). At some point, it would be good to come up with an approach for this, but I don't know what it might be. Stubbing out the radios doesn't help much, because then you have to test that the stubs match the actual radios, so you're just one step removed.
It reminds me of the early days of testing apps on Blackberries and other smartphones. Companies literally had a roomful of actual physical phones that testers would check out one at a time to test the apps. Not exactly ideal, and a little expensive when it comes to radios.
I'm not suggesting that something be developed at the same time that Joe is working to get Python 3 up and running, since it only adds to the burden. I should be able to test the IC-910H, but it would be good to have people check out other Icom and Kenwood live mode radios.

My only live mode radio is my Kenwood TH-F6a. I would be happy to test it whenever it is needed.

When the branch is ready for testing, I'd be willing to test on the following radios:
- Kenwood - TH-F7A (live radio) - TM-D710 - TH-D74
- Yaesu - FT1D - FT857
Just waiting for someone to tell me "please start testing!"

What's the procedure for testing using the image files? Is there an automated test?
I now have all the tests in run_tests passing.
