Where the heck is tap_tester?

[GuillaumeDesforges]

All tap tests use tap_tester module. But I can't find it anywhere, on GitHub, on Google, ... Where can I pull this dependency from?

Looked at https://github.com/search?q=tap-tester, not found.

Apparently it was a repo from stitchdata:

But 404 on https://github.com/stitchdata/tap-tester

@GuillaumeDesforges It's a StitchData internal only tool which I agree makes it basically impossible to write a fully tested PullRequest and may well be the death of the FOSS community around Singer...

[GuillaumeDesforges]

To me, it just seems that nobody cares. This not reassuring. (my own personal perception)

singer seems to have been abandoned by stitchdata: basically no commit on singer-python from jan 2020 to oct 2020, then only a very few changes.

I have been looking at someone to ping from @stitchdata org, but nobody is publicly in the organization.

Looking at the past months of commit to singer-python, I found @luandy64 and @dmosorast to poke.

@GuillaumeDesforges I'd agree. It's a real shame that it's so hard to contribute to any of the Singer projects. There's a real problem with getting PRs accepted.

Have you joined the Slack channel?

Now I have, thanks for suggesting!

Did you figure out?

[GuillaumeDesforges]

Nope. I would advise having a look at Airbyte instead.
