Calligra: Improve visualimagecompare, one of our testing tools

completed by: Mohammed Nafees

mentors: Thorsten Zachmann

Description: Improve visualimagecompare, one of Calligra's testing tools. visualimagecompare is a tool used together with cstester to check the difference between rendering of different versions of Calligra output to see if there are regressions. This tool helps us quite a lot to find regressions and see the improvements and control them. There is one bug and one feature to be implemented. The bug to fix is that the window of visualimagecompare should not resize if the filename is longer then the screen size. The new feature is to display the number of documents that have changes and the number of the current document.

Expected results: The window does not resize when the document name is longer then the window. The full title should still be visible. The user should be able to see the current/total number of files that have changes.

Additional information (how to build and use): See http://www.zagge.de/files/gci_visualimagecompare.tar.gz

Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of C++, knowledge of Qt is a plus
