- Our Casper fixture was several years out of date.
- I'd already updated the ghost-api to point to the latest API version, which was the main difference
- This makes sure the full fixture is up to date and correct, and therefore that we're truly testing if Ghost right now works
- It also adds instructions for how to update it in future
GOTCHA: the mock-express-style tests are failing if the API difference between test-theme and casper are different
- I've tried to look into why this is - it's something to do with the overridden route settings not working properly if the API version changes
- Given that we may not keep this style of testing AND we are definitely not keeping API versions, I'm ignoreing this for now
- To get around it, I'm setting both themes to be v4 API, so that Casper is exactly as in main

- Upgraded the remaining themes to be pinned to the canary API
- This required one minor fix because the edit URL has changed for authors in v4/canary
- I also ripped out everywhere that the theme ghost-api version was being pinned to canary, as this was unreliable and only happening in a few places
- It's also going to be unnecessary code as soon as we finish changing to only having one API version
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/168
- All of our unversioned tests should be running against canary already
- These tests are erroneously running on the wrong version
We're going to be dropping the idea of having multiple versions of the API in each Ghost version.
Because this has not achieved the goal of making it easier to make breaking changes, but it has
created an ordinate amount of technical debt and maintenance overhead.
As we know this is going away in the next major, there is no benefit to us constantly running tests
that check if those versions still work, especially given how long they take.
Instead we're starting work to ensure that all of our test work on canary, and that canary has
excellent test coverage so that we can be sure that our one API version works really well and that
any changes, no matter how subtle are deliberate, tracked and understood.

Support for AMP is slowly in decline, and makes developing new cards trickier,
since AMP no longer has an effect of SEO we're going to disable it by default
as a first step toward moving away from it.

- Have skimmed through the test suites in hopes to find some quick performance wins to bring the runtime speed closer to the one in "main". Haven't been successful to identify major wins, cleaned up a couple of small bits.
- We'll have to live with a tradeoff between maintainability/unified boot VS cost of mainitaining a fake boot process. Imo extra couple seconds of runtime is worth it.

- The tests needed adjustments with the native boot mechanism.
- The number of returned posts changed in the test resutls because duing native boot we also insert fixtures which add to the number of initial posts
- The vhost regression suite is still failing and I had no strength to figure out why. The redirect it fails with makes no sense, the clue here is that the test doesn't fail when running in isolation, so probably has to do with some leftover overrides from the previous test cases.
refs 3c7a8dead4
- The boot process has been using an asyc method to load the routes file, which is the case now for these tests since the switch to raw boot method instead of mimicking it manually
refs 3c7a8dead4
- Simplifies the state initialization code significantly and reuses native boot mechanism instead of mimicking it (it was a headache to maintain with all the internal services moving around)

- Without sensible defaults the web app was not initializing either the backend nor the frontned parts of the application. Fixed the defaults so the problem doesn't happen again and optimized mock-express-style initialization to only initialize the frontend routing
