How to report results

Stream ,|x|Build stream::x}}
Category Test category::SmokeTest Sub-category Test subcategory::Trying different connection types
Component System component::
Feature System feature::
Objective Test objective::Connect with a school server and confirm in terminal
Tools Test tools::2+ XO units, school server access
Setup Test setup::
Procedure [[Test procedure::Actions
  1. The laptop should boot up and connect to the school server by default if you are near one
  2. Wait for the circle to stop blinking ( in older builds the outer circle goes white to show successful connection, later builds show parentheses to indicate connection) and hover your cursor to ensure connection
    • To check your connection, go to terminal one (ctrl alt mesh)
    • At the login, type "root", and then type olpc-netstatus (for newer build, type "olpc" instead of "root")
    • Note whether the result of Telepathy/Jabber is salut or gabble
  3. Go to the mesh view (ctrl alt home and then mesh)
  4. Note the XO's you see -are they laptops around you, or ones most likely beyond the reach of the laptops wi-fi?
  5. Do the same with a second or third laptop to ensure that it's in the same configuration]]
Expected Results
and Pass Criteria
[[Pass criteria::Verify
  • The laptop connects to the school server by default after reboot
  • (alternatively) The laptop connects to the school server if you click on its portal point in the mesh view
  • The result of running olpc-netstatus is:
    • IP msh0 :
      • 172.x.x.x(172.18.x.x when connected to the School server in OLPC offices)
      • 192.168.x.x
      • 10.x.x.x
    • Config : School server
    • Telepathy/Jabber :
      • salut (means failure to connect to a jabber server
      • gabble (then the result of Jabber is : {name of jabber server you're connected to}
  • If you're running salut, you only see laptops that are around you and also connected to the same server
  • If you're running gabble, you see laptops connected to the same jabber server
  • NOTE: laptops running gabble cannot see laptops running salut and vise-versa]]
