NattyTestPlan

Introduction

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to explain the different testing efforts for Unity in the Natty cycle. It is designed to prescribe the scope, approach, resources, and schedule for all testing activities during this cycle.

This document will be modified and enhanced as required throughout the verification testing engagement. The purpose of this document:

  • Defines the overall test approach.
  • Identifies software and system hardware to be tested.
  • Identifies hardware, software, and tools to be used to support the testing efforts.
  • Defines the types of tests to be performed.

Note: Specific effort for regression testing ?

Scope

The testing tasks for the components of Ubuntu includes:

  • Functional testing of the applications (automated and manual - Desktop Testing initiative)
  • Integration with the desktop environment
    • Unity
    • 2D Desktop (gnome fallback when 3D support is not available)
  • Server Testing
  • ISO Testing
  • Hardware Testing
  • Additional Testing: i18n, a11y, printing

For each testing task we will also:

  • Collect, provide and review Test Cases that uncover new bugs or cover existing known issues.
  • Collect test data and review testing results.
  • Reporting of all test results.
  • Risk analysis and communication of the blocking issues.

Testing will be performed all along during the development cycle of Natty. The main milestones of the test plan are aligned on the Release Schedule and Natty Release Interlock Testing is a very dependant activity, As a result, test planning is a continuing activity performed throughout the system development life cycle.

Note: HW Testing -> Cert Team: to be included in this doc ?

Project Milestones / Schedule

Test Items and Features

New Features in Natty Narwhal (Ubuntu 11.04)

List the new features that need extensive testing

  • GTK 3.0 with GObject Introspection is still a fairly young technology which is still in flux, so we need to regularly test our applications which got ported to it:
    • Apport: Try ubuntu-bug audio and select the "record" case, then follow the steps, and finally check if you get a reasonable output and behaviour of the details window (like unreasonable window size, or unreadable text). Please make sure to open the Details expander.

Application

Category of applications to be tested

The categories of applications to be tested are:

  • Core components (Help, menus, ...)
  • Audio/Video
  • Games
  • Graphics
  • Internet
  • Office
  • Utilities
  • System Preferences
  • System Administration

Each application must be covered by at least 1 automated test case to ensure that it can be launched on the platform. Additionally, because using manual testing will cover very few test cases and requires important man power, we will focus on test cases that uncover new bugs and cover existing known issues.

ACTION

  • Work with bdmurray and pedro to do some datamining in launchpad and identify known issues for the aforementioned applications

Automated Testing

We will use Mago (lp:mago) and its helper tool magomatic (lp:magomatic) to automate test cases.

Unity itself is not accessible, so the Unity interface cannot be accessed directly with the tools we have right now. Luckily, Mago is tool agnostic and, although is mostly based on LDTP, we will have to add other tools to help us testing the interface itself (see Actions below for example of tools)

ACTIONS

  • Investigate XPresser (Limited to image matching)
  • xautomation: Only useful bit is visgrep but no success so far
  • xnee/cnee: Crashes desktop in Natty.
  • Xtest: Integration of mouse and keyboard support: DONE
  • Unity.Debug to return the coordinates of the Desktop components (DX Team)

Manual Testing

The Desktop Testing Program started last cycle. It provided a good way for the community to test the desktop applications every milestone. As part of the modifications for this program in the Natty cycle, we will be including Unity as part of the program.

For each of the applications, we will be duplicating the testcases, to be run in Unity and also the 2D experience.

The resources available to the community are:

Desktop

Unity

Although the DX team is the main responsible of testing the Unity interface itself, we need to collaborate with them so our tests work better. The QA Team is responsible of the testing of the integration of the application with Unity (ex. Shotwell Menu not integration in the global menu)

The DX team will provide us "only dbus access, not dbusmenu. The D-Bus Debug Service will provide a service to collect the state of the Unity interface i.g Panel, Menu, Indicator, Files place, ...

Based on that, we can send dbus commands to compiz/unity to know the state of the interface without atk support.

If we want to test global menu bits, e.g. the global /appmenu/, we can do so with the gnome-panel version which call 'hidden' menus in Unity. The tests should be easily transposable to the Unity version once that menu gets atk support as well.

All the applications shipped by default with Natty must be tested in Unity. The applications on Unity can be tested using the same a11y tools that we already use for the 2D experience. One of the main caveats is that Unity does not run under Xvfb and, therefore, we cannot run it on a server without having a full desktop up and running.

The subsystems of Unity that needs to be covered are

  • Basic manual Test Cases

  • Launcher

  • Panel
    • Presence: the panel appears, is always visible except when a fullscreen app is on display
    • Content: the panel contains a set of required indicators: Ubuntu button, appmenu, session, clock, sound, battery, network (NM)
  • Panel/Appmenu in particular
    • needs to show up with supported toolkits (GTK and QT)
    • needs to fallback gracefully with Mozilla, Chormium apps, OOo, Java, SWT
  • Applications
    • Note: should be "remote controlled" via the global appmenu, not the hidden menu that is maintained for compatibility reasons; that will test the actual appmenu support for the critical apps on the list
  • Notifications
  • Messaging Menu
  • MeMenu

  • Sound Menu
  • Dash Search
  • Files
  • Dash (Application Places)

An example of integration Test Case is:

  • create a document in gedit,
  • verify that it appears in the Files Place.
  • Then rename that document
  • verify that the document modified appears in places.

ACTIONS

  • Research on how to run the tests using Hudson (or something else) in an automated fashion
  • Run the mago tests on Unity at least twice per week in a machine with Unity running as mean time solution
  • The tests results will be publicly available

Additional tool to extend Mago Xpresser, which is based in image comparison, is not suitable to check the state of Unity after running a test, as the design will change a lot during the Natty cycle. Xpresser, although based in image comparison, can be good to launch applications from the launcher, as it is not accessible yet, and the icons don't tend to change that much. We need to be careful, though, as Xpresser is not being actively maintained and there could be some bugs.

2D Experience

All the applications must be tested in the 2D (legacy) environment.

The 2D experience needs to be tested as well and, actually, as the 2D experience runs well in a Xvfb, it will be easier to run using Hudson.

The subsystems of the 2D experience that needs to be covered are

ACTIONS

  • Run a Hudson server on the datacenter
  • Run a cronjob to update the system on a daily basis
  • Run the mago tests on a daily basis in an automated fashion

Support Features

The following additional component are part of the Testing effort:

  • Accessibility (see with charlie_tca which items and features need to be reviewed)
  • Translation (see with dpm)
  • Printing (tkampeter was expected to provide test cases)

Server

Although we now have expanded hardware support on Natty (AMD64, AMD64-mac, i386, PowerPC, PowerPC-ps3, ARMEL-dove, possibly others?) we will test only i386 and AMD64. This expanded support is mostly a consolidation of the different ports -- see Natty cdimage ports consolidation.

Server itself

Expand tool-chain testing with more packages (currently we daily-build libvirt, postgresql-8.4, mysql-dfsg-5.1, openldap, php5, python2.6, and coreutils).

Applications

Cloud

We will test both Eucalyptus and Openstack; amount of coverage of Openstack will depend on availability.

  • add euca2ools tests
  • verify euca2ools compatibility with EC2, and other Cloud technologies
  • automate as much as possible the UEC tests currently run (depends on updates on euca-* utilities)
  • test image compatibility (Lucid, Maverick, Natty) with EUC-Natty

Hardware Testing

HW Team

  • Any input from the HW Team ?

Laptop Testing Initiative

We are going to set up a new tracker to track the results (http://laptop.qa.ubuntu.com). The Italian Testing team will be the main responsible to maintain the milestones and to provide reports.

ISO Testing

As part as our per milestone testing, we need to be testing Unity on desktops and the 2D experience fallback. Many of us use VMs to test the images and we need to find a VM technology capable of running Unity.

Also, we need to modify the testcases (or add new ones) to match the new possibilities.

Risks and Assumptions

  • For ISO testing, a new test run will be initiated if a new media is provided during a run. Test results will be reset.
  • UNITY doesn't run in a virtual environment. Because of this ISO testing of UNITY can only be done on real hardware with a GPU. This means that ISO Testing will be much slower than usual.

  • Natty comes with 2 versions of the desktop: UNITY and 2D/Gnome. This means that there are twice the number of cases to test.
