===OLPC Test Areas/Features for 8.2.0===


This is a work-in-progress...
This is a draft.


Major test areas/features to be covered are:
Below is the major test areas/features list that will be used to create [[Test cases 8.2.0|8.2.0 test cases]]:


==== Hardware/Firmware====
==== Network Connectivity/Collaboration====
Robust behavior, ability to operate with user-oriented (touch-pad, keyboard, etc.) and external devices (mouse, etc.)


Connectivity and ability to browse the web from WEP and WPA access points.
==== Power Management (Power Control & Conservation)====


Sharing between XOs on a simple mesh.
When the lid is closed or when the power button is pressed while Sugar is running, suspend in order to conserve power.


Between XOs with a school server with an 802.11 b/g access point (with or without WEP and WPA/WPA2 encryption). Access point connectivity is currently a priority.
Resume from suspend in response to lid opening or power-button presses


Active Antenna (low priority for 8.2)
Cut power by holding the power button for several seconds


In a mixed environment (when various wireless points of contact are present in the area), allow switching between different modes of connectivity.
Power off or reset the machine via the Central XO-person's Palette


Please see use cases that describe connectivity testing in more detail: [[Use_Cases]]
Control screen brightness and suspend state from the root command-line


==== School Server Backup Feature====
Control screen brightness with the brightness keys in Sugar


Register and automatically save files to school server


Restore files from school server to XO.
==== USB/SD Peripherals====


====Journal/Datastore ====
Reliably store user data to and retrieve user data from FAT16/VFAT formatted USB Mass Storage devices.


Reliably store user data to and retrieve user data from FAT16/VFAT formatted SD/SDHC devices.
Be able to save and retrieve activities and files from the Journal.


List, search, and filter records of actions on the system by time, title, or type.
USB ethernet adapters, keyboards, and mice should function similarly to their normal function on other operating systems.


Be able to display and edit text (rtf, pdf, x-pdf, doc, html), image (png, jpeg, gif), audio (ogg, x-wav, wav), video (ogg, mpeg, avi) formats.
Login via serial consoles. (very low priority)


==== Activity Updater ====


This is located in the sugar control panel, but is being identified here as it needs to be get specific test cases.
==== Firmware====


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the default location of Activites.
Developer keys should grant access to OFW.


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the G1G1/8.2 version of activities.
Should be able to flash any build from OFW.


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the Peru version, 8.2. (Lower priority as this needs to work for 8.2.1).
Should be able to rewrite manufacturing data (e.g. language, write-protect tags) from OFW (Very low priority, not a public feature)


Should respond to gamepad [go/Cheat_codes Cheat codes]


==== Power Management (Power Control & Conservation)====


When the lid is closed or when the power button is pressed quickly while Sugar is running, suspend the machine in order to conserve power.
==== Installation of Software (operating system, Sugar, activities) and firmware. Field upgrades.====


Resume from suspend in response to lid opening or quickly pressing the power-button.
Must be able to cleaninstall from a production image to a laptop. All data is lost. [[Tests/Boot/Cleaninstall]]


Power off a machine by holding the power button for several seconds.
W/ internet or preparation: install new activities and library content on a raw OS via the internet or via USB keys.


Power off or reset the machine via the Central XO-person's Palette.
W/ internet: olpc-update to new versions of the operating system via the internet. Data in /home should be PRESERVED.


Control screen brightness with the brightness keys in Sugar.
W/ preparation: olpc-update to new versions of the operating system via USB. Data in /home should be PRESERVED.


==== Installation/Upgrade ====
Access the root account via the virtual terminals or via the Terminal activity (if present.)


Original software must be installable at the factory. It can be upgraded via an USB stick (clean install) or over the network (upgrade). Clean install will result in deleting all previously existed user data. When upgraded over the network, user data collected while running previously installed software must be preserved and appear existed after the upgrade.


For testing, these are the features that need to be addressed:
Access to the firmware "ok" prompt w/ developer key, requestable through Browse and installable through the Terminal.
# Start with major release currently in the field; upgrade via olpc-upgrade to new release
# Start with minor release(s) currently in the field; upgrade via olpc-upgrade to new release
# Use USB upgrade
# Use cleaninstall procedure


In the cases of upgrades (rather than cleaninstall), the data and Journal entries from before the upgrade should remain intact.
====Sugar GUI====


==== Firmware====
TBD


Developer key should grant access to OFW.


It should be able to reinstall firmware If needed) without reinstalling the whole build.
====Datastore====


It should be possible to rewrite manufacturing data (e.g. language, write-protect tags) from OFW (?).
Be able to display and edit DOC, ODT, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WAV, OGG, HTML, JS, some SWF, and several other less-well known formats.


====Security====
We expect NOT to be able to display [go/Restricted_Formats restricted formats] including MP3, MPEG, most AVI, RM, FLV, etc.


Laptops should travel through the delivery chain unactivated.


Laptops should not boot until they are activated.
====Activities====


Laptops can be activated locally (via USB) or wirelessly (with a school server) (?).
Interact with one activity or "location" at a time


====Localization====
Switch between the current activity and other locations with the view keys or the frame


'''Keyboards'''
Switch between activities with Alt-Tab or the activity ring

Clean install will result in deleting all previously existed user data. When upgraded over the network, user data collected while running previously installed software must be preserved and appear existed after the upgrade.

  1. Start with major release currently in the field; upgrade via olpc-upgrade to new release
  2. Start with minor release(s) currently in the field; upgrade via olpc-upgrade to new release
  3. Use USB upgrade
  4. Use cleaninstall procedure

In the cases of upgrades (rather than cleaninstall), the data and Journal entries from before the upgrade should remain intact.

Firmware

Developer key should grant access to OFW.

It should be able to reinstall firmware If needed) without reinstalling the whole build.

It should be possible to rewrite manufacturing data (e.g. language, write-protect tags) from OFW (?).

Security
