It's a very good question, We should define the item clearly.

The environment dimensions (arch, locale, platform...) are extremely
flexible in Moztrap, we customized these items all by ourselves.

The original idea I set Locale as an option is to record the testing
operating system locale. Then everything else is supposed to left to
libreoffice to decide automatically.

Of course things come to be a bit jumbly, as you mentioned, testing
environment options can be manually tuned, the additional language
packages can be freely installed and uninstalled , etc. Even more,
localization includes a lot of detailed meanings and coverage:

* UI translation
* Document translation (help doc)
* Document Language bundles
* Spell check dictionaries
* Thesaurus
* Grammar check
* Hyphenation
* East-Asian specific and complicated text support

So it may make sense to keep the concept as simple as operating
system locale. When a testing environment is selected as fr for
example, I do *NOT* presume the above detailed coverages would be all
related with French packages or settings.

Alternatively these language specific testing would be reflected in
*testcases* description and steps:

* Ideally these language specific *testcases* should be tested in
  relevant environments.

* Conversely those non-language specific *testcases* should be
  tested in only one environment.

which I think are Moztrap's future roles to take care about how to
map different cases to different locales.

Finally as far as I can concern, everything manually set, inluding
language settings, which is relevant to the results should go to
comments field when marking the test results.

I would like to keep the topic open, and get more people with l10n
experience involved.  :)

@Petr, Sophie, all, any input here?

Not yet. The test cases have no restricted orders so far :) I think
the numbering is a new feature where we may leverage afterwards when
needed.

 Why is the Install test (which is first action you take) numbered
 16?

hehe, I'll have to hide it if really confusing.

 Is it considered low priority (Priority 2) that the user has a successful
 Install???

I am not sure I got the question. But the priority does matter. The
high priority (P1) cases are supposed to run before low priority (P2)
ones in any case, beacause test cases having high priority usually are
designed to test fundamental and most important functionality, wrt:


https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Test_Cases_Organization#Priority

 FYI OpenID login fails with 
 
 500. That's an error.
 The server could not process your request. That's all we know.


Thanks for trying. Which openid provider were you using?

I did test the OpenID scenario when upgrading and ever worked for me
with google, wordpress and yahoo ids.

Unfortunately the server seems down at the moment so I couldn't do
further testing for now. But I'll certainly take care of this :)

 
 Also, the Wiki screenshot is outdated. It doesn't show the OpenID option. I
 can make a new screenshot and upload it to the wiki, but without edits (you
 can do that later?)

Great, I can do it. But I think if it doesn't take too much time, you
are the better person to update the wiki since you found the problem.

Thank you!

Best wishes,
Yifan

 It's a very good question, We should define the item clearly.

 So it may make sense to keep the concept as simple as operating
 system locale.

I would use the locale that is used in Tools/Options/Language
Settings/Languages/Locale Setting. I think that it affects more things
than UI Language or the other settings.

In each case, I would leave the Moztrap (manual-test.libreoffice.org)
configuration simple, so it is easy to start testing. IMHO, most of the
tests are language independent. You should get the same results in any
locale.

Of course, if you find a bug, you should mention all the details if they
look related. For example, shrinked text in dialog, wrong computation,
problems with spell check, are bugs where the information about the used
language might be important.

 Alternatively these language specific testing would be reflected in
 *testcases* description and steps:
 
 * Ideally these language specific *testcases* should be tested in
   relevant environments.
 
 * Conversely those non-language specific *testcases* should be
   tested in only one environment.

Are these two types of test cases already somehow marked in Moztrap?
Unfortunately, manual-test.libreoffice.org is not accessible right now.

It might be too long list :-) I think that it makes sense to mention
extra information only there are problems or if you are not sure about
the test results and some information looks important.

  Why is the Install test (which is first action you take) numbered
  16?
 
 hehe, I'll have to hide it if really confusing.

Well, the information might help to discuss particular test case. It is
similar to bugzilla. We speak about bug X. We could speak also about
test case XX.

BTW: Is is possible to find a test case by this number?


  Is it considered low priority (Priority 2) that the user has a successful
  Install???

 high priority (P1) cases are supposed to run before low priority (P2)

I think that Pedro wanted to say that installation test should be P1.
You could not do any other tests without installation :-)

In each case, thanks a lot for working on Moztrap. It will help us to be
more confident about the state before each release. I think that there
is still a long way but it is great that we are moving :-)

Petr

Indeed. But also meant that Installation should be the first item on the
table. 

Currently if the user is completing the tests following the order they
appear on the table, by the time s/he reaches number 16 it's a bit obvious
that it was successful...

On the other hand if installation fails then it makes sense that this is the
first item since the user can not go any further...

Pedro

I agree. On the other hand, I am not sure if we need such test at all.
It might make sense if we want to check some special aspects of
installation, for example, list of installed components, default
settings, ...  Otherwise, I think that we need not mention this test.
Everybody has to do installation to be able to do other tests.

Also I think that it does not make sense to check if the Writer starts.
This fact is checked by any other Writer-related test :-)

For example, one nice test could be for desktop integration:
+ desktop menu entries
+ MIME type association

IMHO, this could not be done automatically and it covers many other
trivial tests :-)

Dear all,

To fire on the regression test on 4.0.2 RC immediately, the usage of
Moztrap can't be more simple:

1. Login manual test URL as above
2. Select right run: Libreoffice - 4.0 - 4.0 RC Regression Test
3. Select your envionment: Archs, Locale, Platforms

Finally, click the bright green button on the bottom right and start
to hunt bugs! Actually you may use the latest 4.0.2 RC build (i.e from
RC1 to RC2...RC3 etc.), for testing.

Thanks for joining and we are looking forward to your contribution!

PS. Further details of usage of Moztrap can be found:

Yifan

2013-03-15 Thread Thorsten Behrens
Dear Community,

The Document Foundation is pleased to announce the first release
candidate of our upcoming LibreOffice 4.0.2. This will be the second
in a series of frequent updates to our feature-packed 4.0
branch. Please be aware that LibreOffice 4.0.2 RC1 is not ready for
production use, you should continue to use LibreOffice 4.0.1 for that.

The release is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X from our QA
builds download page at

  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

Should you find bugs, please report them to the FreeDesktop Bugzilla:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org

A good way to assess the release candidate quality is to run some
specific manual tests on it, our TCM wiki page has more details:

 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests#Full_Regression_Test

  - or checkout our manual test database for starting right away -

 http://manual-test.libreoffice.org/runtests/

As usual, this update is accompanied with a new version of the Impress
Remote - if you would like to test, an updated Android package is
available here:

 
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/sdremote-1.0.5/playstore/ImpressRemote.apk
 (and note https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Impress/RemoteHowTo)

For other ways to get involved with this exciting project - you can
e.g. contribute code:

  http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/developers/

translate LibreOffice to your language:

  http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide

or help with funding our operations:

  http://donate.libreoffice.org/

A list of known issues and fixed bugs with 4.0.2 RC1 is available
from our wiki:

  http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/4.0.2/RC1

Let us close again with a BIG Thank You! to all of you having
contributed to the LibreOffice project - this release would not have
been possible without your help.

Yours,
