Currently it is not necessary to include the link_url field.
When we display these cards without link_url, they create an empty link that
redirects to the same page. I understand that this is not a desired behavior, so I
think it is better to add a validation in this case and force administrators to add a
link_url when creating a card.
JavaScript is used by about 98% of web users, so by testing without it
enabled, we're only testing that the application works for a very
reduced number of users.
We proceeded this way in the past because CONSUL started using Rails 4.2
and truncating the database between JavaScript tests with database
cleaner, which made these tests terribly slow.
When we upgraded to Rails 5.1 and introduced system tests, we started
using database transactions in JavaScript tests, making these tests much
faster. So now we can use JavaScript tests everywhere without critically
slowing down our test suite.
These cards will be displayed in the SDG homepage.
Note there seems to be a strange behavior in cancancan. If we define
these rules:
can :manage, Widget::Card, page_type: "SDG::Phase"
can :manage, Widget::Card
The expected behavior is the first rule will always be ignored because
the second one overwrites it. However, when creating a new card with
`load_and_authorize_resource` will automatically add `page_type:
"SDG::Phase"`.
Similarly, if we do something like:
can :manage, Widget::Card, id: 3
can :manage, Widget::Card
Then the new card will have `3` as an ID.
Maybe upgrading cancancan solves the issue; we haven't tried it. For now
we're defining a different rule when creating widget cards.
