i am following the odoo 10 workflow documentation tutorial and i was unable to get any response form clicking on the workflow buttons, no error is showing.
*please note that in my code the name of the module i am developing is "testModule" which is written as "test_module" inside python instead of "openacademy" that is used in the docs tutorial. and the view file is views.xml instead of openacademy.xml , could any of that have an impact?
views.xml

inculded the call in manafest.py
'data': [
# 'security/ir.model.access.csv',
'views/views.xml',
'views/templates.xml',
'views/partner.xml',
'views/session_workflow.xml',
],
created the fields and functions in my sessions model in models.py
state = fields.Selection([
('draft', "Draft"),
('confirmed', "Confirmed"),
('done', "Done"),
])
@api.multi
def action_draft(self):
self.state = 'draft'
@api.multi
def action_confirm(self):
self.state = 'confirmed'
@api.multi
def action_done(self):
self.state = 'done'
and at the end i upgraded the module
This happens with Sessions you created before implementing the session_workflow.xml
It should work fine for sessions you create after implementing the session_workflow.xml. They placed a warning for it somewhere in the middle of the example.
Warning
A workflow associated with a model is only created when the model's records are created. Thus there is no workflow instance associated with session instances created before the workflow's definition
