Public bug reported:
We propose to add a new feature to the Checkbox UI, which will allow the
user to send their test results to the Launchpad Hardware Database
(https://launchpad.net/+hwdb/+submit). The UI will be changed to ask for
the users Launchpad email address at the end of testing. After
submitting they will see a response indicating whether submission was
succesful or if some error occured.
N.B. This reinstates a feature that was in Checkbox in previous
releases, but was removed during Trusty development due to re-
implementation of the Checkbox core and UI.
This feature is considered beneficial as it will mean users will
continue being able to send test reports to Launchpad, which may at a
later date be used for currently undefined purposes (a past use has been
to drive the Ubuntu Friendly database).
The visible UI changes (warranting a UIFe) are in checkbox-gui, but in
order for this feature to work fully, the following syncs will need to
be done from Debian:
- plainbox 0.5.3
- checkbox-ng 0.3
- plainbox-provider-checkbox 0.4
Testing that has been performed as of now:
- Package builds
- Package installs on Trusty
- Submit to Launchpad feature works, and no noticable regressions occur
in regular usage of Checkbox
** Affects: checkbox (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Project changed: checkbox-gui => checkbox (Ubuntu)
