Re: Beta Survey
I apologize in advance if my English is not perfect or too elementary. I installed the BETA version three days ago and I'm using it instead of the version 4.0.1 Using two components in Writer and Calc MSOffice-compatible format. The overall impression is good. No crash. It is slightly faster than the previous one. Let's move on to the list. 1) Platform Vindows pro 8.1 64bit, updated March 13, 2014 2) Italian language 3) about 8 hours a day. 4) writer and calc 5) format. Doc and. Xls 6) no bugs 7) no 8) no. I need to retrieve the list 9) during installation copied bad three extensions (two epub converters and one dictionary), taking outdated versions. You did not copy the customizations made. It has taken some personal definitions deleted. Apart from that there were no problems. Only doubt. Version 4.0.1 has abnormal behavior. It does not recognize the language and reports errors even where there are not. I also tried the REPAIR option without success.

Re: Call for volunteers for AOO 4.0 performance test.
I'm a italian volunteer. I would like to run performance tests for italian project. I have windows 8 pro 64. Gian Paolo Marcolongo Il 27/02/2013 15:49, Anders Kvibäck ha scritto: Hi! Yes, I would like to run performance tests. I've started to look into the link about automated testing that you reffered to. There it says that I have to disable color calibration. But is this possible in Windows Vista.? I just can't find out how to do it. As far as I understand it this is only possible in Windows 7- which I don't have unfortunately. Anders 2013/2/26 Yi Xuan Liu liuyixuan@gmail.com Rob, I agree with you. The test environment configuration would impact the performance test results. Therefore, we should keep the test configuration unchanged between build to build. I checked performance bugs list in bugzilla. 5 performance bugs are found in automation performance test, such as memory leak and save performance issue. Lots of performance bugs are found in AOO daily usage. Therefore, for volunteers who are not willing to run automation performance, you can also report bugs for any performance issue and it will be helpful for us.

Performance plays an important role in software quality. Is there any volunteer who want to run performance test? I've run AOO performance test on my own machines. I've tried on 3 platforms: Windows XP, Ubuntu 10.04, Mac Mac OS 10.7.3. The test configures are as follows: (1) W500; CPU:2.53 GHz; Mem: 3GB; OS: XP SP3 (2) Ubuntu; CPU: Interl® Core™ 2 Duo 2 GHz; Mem: 3GB; OS: Ubuntu 10.04 (3) Mac; CPU: Interl® Core™ 2 Duo 2 GHz; Mem: 3GB; OS: Mac OS 10.7.3 I assume the volunteer does not need to have exactly the same machine type as you had. But they need some stability in the configuration. A performance test might be run first on the AOO 3.4.1 release to establish a baseline. Then re-test on a current 4.0 snapshot build. And then re-run on new dev snapshot builds, maybe once a week. The goal is to detect performance regressions early, so developers can fix it. The technical challenge here is to preserve a stable machine configuration. If the machine changes, because of an OS upgrade, or a changed hard drive, or a different network environment, or because of a new anti-virus product, then that confuses things. We need to control all the variables. One approach to controlling all of the variables is to have a machine that is used for nothing but performance testing. That way we know the machine's base performance does not change. Another approach is re-run the baseline AOO 3.4.1 performance tests each week. This is more tolerant of changes in machine configuration, etc. -Rob The test scenario include: AOO startup, file open, and save. Volunteers could run performance test on other platforms. All the automation scripts could be downloaded in AOO project. And it is not difficult to set the automation environment.
