Register and automatically save files to school server
Be able to display and edit DOC, ODT, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WAV, OGG, HTML, JS, some SWF, and several other less-well known formats.


Restore files from school server to XO.
We expect NOT to be able to display [go/Restricted_Formats restricted formats] including MP3, MPEG, most AVI, RM, FLV, etc.


====Journal/Datastore ====


Be able to save and retrieve activities and files from the Journal.
==== Power Management (Power Control & Conservation)====


List, search, and filter records of actions on the system by time, title, or type.
When the lid is closed or when the power button is pressed while Sugar is running, suspend in order to conserve power.

This is located in the sugar control panel, but is being identified here as it needs to be get specific test cases.
Power off or reset the machine via the Central XO-person's Palette


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the default location of Activites.
Control screen brightness and suspend state from the root command-line


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the G1G1/8.2 version of activities.
Control screen brightness with the brightness keys in Sugar


Be able to upgrade Activities based on the Peru version, 8.2. (Lower priority as this needs to work for 8.2.1).


==== Installation/Upgrade ====


==== Power Management (Power Control & Conservation)====
Must be installable in the factory and upgradeable from 656, 703 and 708 via USB or network.


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.
Must be able to cleaninstall from a production image to a laptop. All data is lost. [[Tests/Boot/Cleaninstall]]


Resume from suspend in response to lid opening or quickly pressing the power-button.
W/ internet or preparation: install new activities and library content on a raw OS via the internet or via USB keys.


Power off a machine by holding the power button for several seconds.
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.
Access the root account via the virtual terminals or via the Terminal activity (if present.)


==== Installation/Upgrade ====


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.
Access to the firmware "ok" prompt w/ developer key, requestable through Browse and installable through the Terminal.


For testing, these are the features that need to be addressed:
==== Firmware====

Power off or reset the machine via the Central XO-person's Palette.

Control screen brightness with the brightness keys in Sugar.

Installation/Upgrade

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:

  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

Laptops should travel through the delivery chain unactivated.
