Test Plan

Definitions

SUT

System Under Test

Prereqs

• Account on twitter and gmail.
• Webapps for twitter and gmail installed

Plan

• Install image on SUT: ubuntu-device-flash --channel ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed

• Run citrain device-upgrade [silo]

The scope of responsibility for account-polld is to limit itself to the enabled accounts from online accounts (the accounts with the Notifications toggle set).

Notifications from before account-poll starts for twitter are not shown, only the ones since daemon start.

Notifications are not displayed if Unity8 marks the target application as in focus. For account-polld's responsibility; if the webapp is closed, it shall trigger notification; if the target webapp is open and it is of dubios consideration if the notifiction should be triggered, check with the ubuntu-push-client.

Enable

• twitter:

  • Ensure the twitter app has access to the twitter account in online accounts.
  • Mentions and direct messages should be notified (polling is usually 5 minutes)

• gmail:

  • Ensure the gmail app has access to the gmail account in online accounts.

  • Unread messages falling into gmail's inbox in category personal from a span of ~24hs will be collected and notified.

  • token can be overriden by setting the  ACCOUNT_POLLD_TOKEN_GMAIL  session environment variable and restarting  account-polld .

• google calendar:

  • Ensure the calendar app has access to the gmail account in online accounts.
  • Create a new event on your main calendar using the google web interface
  • Check if the changes are synced with your local calendar (polling is usually 5 minutes)

(Preferably you have a Google test account for this.)

1. Add a Google account, enable Gmail access.
2. Ensure it works.
3. Change the password on the account.

4. Monitor $HOME/.cache/upstart/account-polld.log and make sure there's account-poll does not enter an endless, battery obliterating loop when it discovers the expired token.

Additional information

• Monitor $HOME/.cache/upstart/account-polld.log for additional information. If there are no logs, it probably means no accounts were enabled.

•  dbus-monitor --session interface=com.ubuntu.Postal  to verify that messages are indeed sent to the  ubuntu-push-client  which is the scope of responsibility of  account-polld .

• The push client calls the account-polld dbus interface to poll, the same can be accomplished manually by issueing  gdbus call --session -d com.ubuntu.AccountPolld -o /com/ubuntu/AccountPolld -m com.ubuntu.AccountPolld.Poll  a  Done  signal should be sent once the pollling is done.
