One reason this patch didn't go through was due to lack of test coverage. Could I have some assistance with that, please? What metrics do I use, and which tools? Should I be integrating something like Coveralls for my GitHub repository to ensure this?

I just wanted to post an update of proceedings here. Google has reviewed my case, and ruled against overturning the decision provided. Hence, the decision stays the way it is right now. Despite not agreeing with the decision, I am now left with no choice but to accept it.

We have heard @darthbhyrava's reasons, we have heard @jayvdb's reasons, and with the information available I recommend you to ask the GSoC programs administrators for their evaluation of the situation. This is your best guarantee of receiving a fair and neutral evaluation. We will follow GSoC program's resolution without discussion.
@darthbhyrava, needless to say you are welcome to continue participating in this or any other Wikimedia project on a volunteer capacity, at your own path and free from the requirements that we set in GSoC projects.
I hope we can find the best solution to the current situation. GSoC is supposed to be fun for students and mentors and I am very sorry to see that you both are going through a lot more trouble and stress than needed.
I would also like to take the opportunity to publicly state that even if the evaluation stays this way after I am done appealing to the Org Admins here, and the Google independent engineers later on, I would still like to complete the deliverables I had promised in my proposal. As stated in my last blog post here, I have learnt a lot over the course of this project, and despite the personal experience being very unpleasant, I enjoyed the professional learning curve.
@Qgil, I understand your decision to trust the veteran mentors for my project, and I agree with the fact that they are experts in their areas, and that they are experienced. I have personally seen evidence of their expertise over the course of the project, and respect them for that. However, I urge you to consider this case in isolation, and to look at the details and counter-arguments that I have provided.

@jayvdb @Legoktm @QuimGil @polybuildr - please respond. Pass or fail, I'd like to clear up the fact that I had done what was required of me, and was yet failed when it came down to personal judgement.
I strongly disagree with this evaluation.

@jayvdb - an updated patch has been put up for this. It is throwing an error because I cannot seem to execute either isinstance(var, basestring) or isinstance(var, unicode) without pyflakes throwing up errors. I need to get pyflakes throwing the same error locally, I'll fix it.

The requirement for reproducibility was to extract the most recently updated post, not the newest one. However, while adding the parameter sort_by='updated' for flow.topics, it is throwing up errors, hence for now, I have persisted with the default sort_by='newest'

As I mentioned in the meeting, total=1 in the second half is a bug. Just using assertNotEquals does not verify that the thanks was successful. Another user could have done a thanks . You need to check that your test user did the thanks.
