previously we were just using the wtforms builtin email validator,
which is much more relaxed than our own one. It'd catch bad emails when
POSTing to the API, resulting in an ugly error message. It's easy work
to make sure we validate email addresses as soon as they're entered.
If a PR is going to fail because tests aren’t passing then you:
- should know about it as quick as possible
- shouldn’t waste precious Jenkins CPU running subsequent tests
This commit adds the `-x` flag to pytest, which stops the test run as
soon as one failing test is discovered.
Sometimes you just wanna run some tests directly using the `pytest`
command. But you’re in a new shell, and have forgotten to do
`source environment_test.sh`. The screen fills with red, and your day
just got a little bit worse.
This commit will stop this from ever happening again, by making the
setting environment variables part of running Pytest. It does this with
a plugin called pytest-env[1].
pytest.ini is the standard way of configuring pytest. Creating this file
where it didn’t exist before changes the behaviour of pytest, in that
it will now look for tests in the same directory as the file, rather
than defaulting to the `tests/` directory. So we also have to explicitly
configure pytest[2] to tell it that it should only look in this
directory. Otherwise it gets lost in the weeds of `node_modules`.

It’s weird that `/services/<service_id>` returns `404`. The home page
for every service is the dashboard – should be possible to get there
from any other page just by stemming the URL.
Also makes it consistent with organisations, which will have
`/organisations/<org_id>`.
Notifications-api now needs the service_id to check the uniqueness of
the service name when trying to change it. This is to allow a user to
successfully change the pluralization or the case of their service name.
We had a user report that the ‘inbound messages’ part of their dashboard
was appearing for a split second then disappearing.
This was caused by the Javascript on the page throwing an exception as
it was trying to re-render this part of the page. This meant it gave up
and rendered nothing.
The exception was caused by passing `undefined` as the second argument
to `.insertBefore`. This is acceptable in most browsers, but not older
versions of IE. This is fixed in the latest version of diffDOM (the 3rd
party library we use to do the AJAX stuff) by defaulting the second
argument to `.insertBefore` to `null`, which is acceptable in old IE
versions.
