Ubuntu Wiki

Working document for the Oct. 1-2 desktop testing sprint.

Agenda

• Desktop testing
  • Evaluating technologies LDTP, dogtail and Accerciser
• ISO integrity and install testing
• Upgrade testing (including GUI functionality)
• Package install/remove testing
• Hosting: Where and how do we host the automated tests?
• Long-term maintenance: contributing test scripts back upstream
• Running select tests under profiling/debugging tools like valgrind
• Identify goals for Hardy
  • (any for Gutsy? ...)

Ideas

• UbuntuTesting@Home: Present the test scripts in a way that allows people to test with them easily at home. Initially this would be a set of packages with test scripts glued together by a howto wiki page. Later we can add a GUI interface that lets users download and run tests.

• Test reporting website: A section of qa.ubuntu.com where users can upload test results.
