=== User interface notes ===
  
−
'''Plugin Version: '''0.83
+
Many search types such as UniProt_ID now lead to exact-only searches. The production of results should not be allowed for imprecise protein names, for example, since the user might have entered gene names, selected UniProt_ID by mistake and would not be aware of their mistake because their search returned results. Also, since the first few characters of UniProt_ID search terms may be shared by multiple proteins from different organisms, an inexact match would need to trigger the query helper.
  
−
'''Data Version: '''7.0 public
+
Generally, searches should provide predictable outcomes without resorting to the attribute browsers to discover which search terms produced which results. For example, AH2_ARATH which returns no results from an exact match search, should not encourage similar terms to be used for searching. Previously AH2_ARATH returned CAH2_ARATH. Imagine if the user accidentally had such a query term embedded in a long list. They would never detect this search error!
  
−
<span style="color:red">'''Result: '''NOT TESTED</span>
+
Where the taxonomy field is set to <tt>Any</tt>, a warning will be given. It is envisaged that the user will most frequently be working with a single organism's proteins or would at least tolerate being reminded that potentially irrelevant proteins might be searched for due to naming coincidences.

'''Tester: '''Ian
+
The iterations setting resets to 1 after a query, even one which led to the query helper being shown, where the query will be completed by trying the search again.
  
−
'''Notes: '''
+
The i.query attribute on nodes will collect queries as they are performed. Thus, nodes will appear blue in a graph even if the current query had no direct relationship with the node.
  
−
===Test case name: audit against external database - Intact===
+
Exporting lists of attribute values should be as simple as selecting the values in the attribute browser and opening a context menu and copying the selection. However, it is also possible (when the context menus don't work) to use the "File" -> "Export" -> "Node Attributes" menu entry and to choose "i.geneID", then saving and processing the saved file to get a list. This seems to be rather unreliable, however.

 80 nodes and 733 edges (upon last attempt) Pass

CXCR4
 
geneSymbol
 
Taxon id: Any
Iterations: 0
Create new view: yes
Use canonical expansion: no
 2 nodes Pass 
P61073-2
 
UniProt_Ac
 
Taxon id: Any
Iterations: 0

Use canonical expansion: no
 2 nodes (CXCR4 and CXCR4_HUMAN) Pass

Create new view: yes
Use canonical expansion: yes
 2 nodes (CXCR4 and CXCR4_HUMAN) Pass 
P61073
 
UniProt_Ac
 2 nodes (CXCR4 and CXCR4_HUMAN) Pass
Note: P61073-2 and P61073 are isoforms of CXCR4. Searching for P61073-2 actually results in the removal of the "-2" and a search for all isoforms, under the assumption that the user is unsure which isoform should be retrieved; as a result, all isoforms are returned, even though a specific isoform was requested. In contrast, the search without a "-" character results in just one protein with that exact name being returned.

Note: the transfer of the search term from the query helper and the augmentation of results from the term isn't particularly easy to accomplish, or it isn't obvious how to accomplish this successfully, because the iRefScape panel is hidden in the main window (a Cytoscape bug which appears to switch the visible panel all the time) and because a new search is required (without a new view being created, which is potentially how the original search might be set up).

User interface notes

Many search types such as UniProt_ID now lead to exact-only searches. The production of results should not be allowed for imprecise protein names, for example, since the user might have entered gene names, selected UniProt_ID by mistake and would not be aware of their mistake because their search returned results. Also, since the first few characters of UniProt_ID search terms may be shared by multiple proteins from different organisms, an inexact match would need to trigger the query helper.

Generally, searches should provide predictable outcomes without resorting to the attribute browsers to discover which search terms produced which results. For example, AH2_ARATH which returns no results from an exact match search, should not encourage similar terms to be used for searching. Previously AH2_ARATH returned CAH2_ARATH. Imagine if the user accidentally had such a query term embedded in a long list. They would never detect this search error!

Where the taxonomy field is set to Any, a warning will be given. It is envisaged that the user will most frequently be working with a single organism's proteins or would at least tolerate being reminded that potentially irrelevant proteins might be searched for due to naming coincidences.

The iterations setting resets to 1 after a query, even one which led to the query helper being shown, where the query will be completed by trying the search again.

The i.query attribute on nodes will collect queries as they are performed. Thus, nodes will appear blue in a graph even if the current query had no direct relationship with the node.

Exporting lists of attribute values should be as simple as selecting the values in the attribute browser and opening a context menu and copying the selection. However, it is also possible (when the context menus don't work) to use the "File" -> "Export" -> "Node Attributes" menu entry and to choose "i.geneID", then saving and processing the saved file to get a list. This seems to be rather unreliable, however.
