ISO QA testing hints

Nvidia test case

There are outdated bits, don't block on them.

The point is that, once you fully install and booted. you should have 1) secureboot on 2) working nvidia drivers loaded.

I have boot mode as UEFI and secure boot enabled, but I cannot reproduce step 7 of UEFI SecureBoot nVidia test case:

Check 'Install third-party software...'
    A checkbox 'Configure Secure Boot' with 2 password fields are displayed {this doesn't happen for me}

foundations
we no longer show that, unless one needs any dkms that are not signed.

foundations
meaning, something like usb-wifi dkms only with a crappy realtek driver

nteodosio
Oh dear! So I can proceed the test?

foundations
in the past we used to always show it, because of nvidia; but we now have singned nvidia dkms modules; which "just work" without any need to enroll a mok kye.

foundations
correct.

foundations
imho the test case is out of date.

foundations
the point is that, once you fully install and booted. you should have 1) secureboot on 2) working nvidia drivers loaded

foundations
and if you were not asked for passwords to setup secureboot MOK key; it means you don't need them.

nteodosio
Great! Since we're here, the test doesn't mention a full disk install, so partition install is fine, correct?

foundations
any type of full install should work correctly. (i.e. dual boot, biggest free, wipe drive and use all, advanced)

nteodosio
I think that's what "Select any installation type and click on the continue button" means but I don't remember Ubiquity wording now

nteodosio
Alright, thanks

foundations
probably that wording is from the time when we had "in place upgrade option" which is long gone.

nteodosio
Is there a proper place to report the outdated bits?

Tests that can be done in a single run

Save time by performing those in a single go:

• [Run-once] Other Features (i.e. test if keyboard, wireless and timezone configuration during installation is kept after installing)
• [Mandatory] Install (manual partitioning re-using home partition)
• [Mandatory] Install (manual partitioning)
