Version 8.0 testing

This document lists tests that we need to do to get version 8.0 closer to a final release. It's an attempt to invite as many testers as possible and to coordinate our testing work.

The document should be used as Work In Progress so please feel free to add additional test scenarios and comments

All tests here should be based on the currently available version 8.0 beta 4 (09/2009). Once a next version (maybe a later beta or release candidate) is released, we plan to use this existing document as the template for that next version and might have to do most if not all of these tests again on that newer version! The more details for our procedures we document here, the easier it might be for more testers to join our efforts!

In general

  • check the related logfile(s) for each test
  • don't hesitate to raise a bug if there is an issue or something suspicious but check the Bugtracker before whether this might already be reported
  • A list of currently reported bugs for SME 8.0 is here: bugzilla matrix

Test guidelines

The purpose of the page is mostly to verify features are working, you can list a bug number if you like but we don't intend to duplicate the tracking provided by bugzilla:

Executive Summary

In general almost everything works as well as in SME 7

The obvious bugs are

USB Backup, various sub systems need tweaking before USB Disks can be mounted

Note: In early beta releases, LDAP searches failed but this has been fixed Mid-January 2010 (see http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5159)

Verification

Create a test environment, either virtually or with spare hardware. Install the latest release, add some test users/ibays/domains/websites, send some internal e-mails, copy some files to/from ibays, perform a backup and restore. Perform as many functions that you can based on your knowledge and test environment abilities. Play. :)

The scenario's should be as complex as needed, but also as simple as possible, testing one unique feature where possible.

For instance creating an ibay could mean something like this, perhaps even incomplete as I am doing this from the top of my head:

  • log in in server-manager
  • create ibay
  • test for directory created (-f /home/e-smith/ibays/ibayname)
  • check for account (ibayname) created
  • check for group (ibayname) created
  • anaylze log for errors/exceptions

but also (and that is the most work mostly) test exceptions (names too long, starting with a number, containing a _, as well as all other exceptions):

  • log in in server-manager
  • create ibay with invalid name
  • check the error in the server-manager screen
  • check no account (ibayname) is created
  • check no group (ibayname) is created
  • check that the error is present in the log file

Header codes

Check one feature at a time and add comments. We will use a shorthand in the header line so we can check progress quickly

  • header x - unchecked
  • header ? - questions, or more to do
  • header bug - there is a bug
  • header - blank means the section has passed

Installation

Installation types

Different installation scenarios re. software RAID, LVM and NOSPARE usage, etc.

to check: /var/log/messages; server-console, item 5; cat /proc/mdstat (which is the same as server-console, item 5;)

  • RAID1 nolvm spares=2 - Pass

Comments:

  • RAID1 "nolvm" - Pass

Comments: Installation was RAID1, nolvm with one physical disk only; adding second disk still to be tested

  • RAID5 (with lvm) spares=0 - Pass

Comments:

  • RAID5 nolvm spares=2 - Pass

Comments:

  • RAID6 (with lvm) spare=1 multipart - Pass

Comments:

  • RAIDx "nolvm"
