• verify that the windows return to their original layout

Test 1.4

• assumes Test 1.3 postcondition

• verify the screens adjusted to mirrored mode

Test 1.5

• assumes expected outcome of Test 1.4 postcondition
• Disconnect the monitor
• Reconnect the monitor
• verify that the screens return to mirror mode layout

Scenario 2 : clean boot 2nd display already connected

Preparations

• Ensure preconditions

• System Settings... -> Displays is in its default configuration, e.g. “Mirror displays” is off

• 2nd monitor is already connected and on prior to boot

Test 2.1

• boot to multimonitor already connected
• open window to drag
• verify that desktop comes up in extended mode

Test 2.2

• assumes expected outcome of Test 2.1 post condition

• open System Settings... -> Displays select “Mirror displays” on

• verify system reconfigures to mirrored screens
• reboot
• verify that system reboots into mirrored screens

Test 2.3

• assumes expected Test 2.2 post condition

• open System Settings... -> Displays select “Mirror displays” off

• verify that the system reconfigures to extended desktop
• reboot
• verify that the system reboots into extended desktop

Scenario 3 : turning off “built-in display”

=== Preparations ===

• Ensure preconditions

• System Settings... -> Displays is in its default configuration

• 2nd monitor is already connected and on prior to boot

Test 3.1

• boot to multimonitor already connected

• open System Settings... -> Displays toggle on/off button for “built-in display” to OFF

• verify the second display remains active as a single screen/desktop

Test 3.2

• assumes expected outcome of Test 3.1 post condition
• Open some windows (e.g. terminal)
• disconnect display
• verify the desktop returns to the “built-in display”

Test 3.3

• assumes expected outcome of Test 3.2 post condition
• reconnect the display
• verify that the desktop now appears on the second display and the “built-in display” is dark

Test 3.4

• assumes expected Test 3.3 postcondition
• reboot with the second display connected

• after login, verify that the desktop appears on the second display & the “built-in display” remains dark

Test 3.5

• assumes expected Test 3.4 postcondition

• open System Settings... -> Displays toggle on/off button for “built-in display” to ON

• verify that the desktop appears extended on both the second display & the “built-in display”

Scenario 4 : resolution change for “built-in display” & second display

Preparations

• Ensure preconditions

• System Settings... -> Displays is in its default configuration

Test 4.1

• boot to multimonitor (or if booted to single screen, connect 2nd monitor)

• open System Settings... -> Displays, note the current resolution (referred to as res1)

• change resolution down for “built in display”, note it, refer to as res2

• open some windows (e.g. terminal & file browser), have windows on each screen open

• disconnect switched on monitor
• verify “built in monitor” returned to original resolution, res1

Test 4.2

• assumes expected outcome of Test 4.1 post condition
• Reconnect the monitor
• verify the “built-in display” adjusts resolution back to res2

Test 4.3

• assumes expected Test 4.2 post condition
• Disconnect monitor, change resolution of “built in monitor” down (preferably to a 3rd resolution setting not yet used), refer to as res3
• Reconnect the monitor
• verify that the “built in monitor” returned to resolution setting selected in res 2
• Disconnect the monitor
• verify that the “built in monitor” returned to res3

Test 4.4

• Assumes expected outcome of Test 4.3 postcondition
• Reconnect monitor

• through System Settings... -> Displays, select the second monitor & change resolution down, note it, refer to as res4

• disconnect monitor, let it settle
• reconnect monitor

• verify the screens adjusted to res 2 for “built-in” & res 4 for second monitor

Scenario 5 : retation changes for display orientations

Preparations

• Ensure preconditions

• System Settings... -> Displays is in its default configuration

Test 5.1

• boot to multimonitor (or if booted to single screen, connect 2nd monitor)
• the system should be in extended desktop mode

• open System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for the “built-in display” to be clockwise

• verify “built in monitor” turned 90 degrees clockwise

Test 5.2

• assumes expected outcome of Test 5.1 post condition

• open System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for the “built-in display” to be normal

• verify the “built-in display” adjusts resolution back to normal

Test 5.3

• assumes expected Test 5.2 post condition

• open System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for the “built-in display” to be 180 degrees

• verify that the “built in monitor” rotated 180 degrees

Test 5.4

• assumes expected outcome of Test 5.3 postcondition

• return the orientation of the primary screen to normal, via System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for the “built-in display” to be normal

• set mirror mode, via System Settings... -> Displays select tick box on “Mirror displays”

• then rotate, System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for the “built-in display” to be 180 degrees

• verify the both “built-in display” and 2nd display rotate 180

Test 5.5

• assumes expected Test 5.4 postcondition

• return rotation to normal, open System Settings... -> Displays, change the “Rotation” for mirrored displays to normal

• unmirror, System Settings... -> Displays, unselect tick box for “Mirror displays”

• select the 2nd monitor in the System Settings... -> Displays and change the Rotation clockwise

• verify that the “built in monitor” did not rotate, and the second display rotates 90 degrees

Scenario 6 : relative display position

Preparations

• Ensure preconditions

• System Settings... -> Displays is in its default configuration

Test 6.1

• boot to multimonitor (or if booted to single screen, connect 2nd monitor)

• open System Settings... -> Displays to see the reflected virtual relationship of the “built-in display” to the second display

• verify with the mouse by exiting the relative side of “built-in display” the mouse appears/enters the second display as reflected in the Displays dialog box

Test 2

• assumes expected Test 6.1 post condition

• in System Settings... -> Displays, select & grab the secondary display to move its relative position to the “built-in” display (effectively swap their position left-right of each other)

• verify with the mouse by exiting the relative side of “built-in display” the mouse appears/enters the second display as reflected in the Displays dialog box
