How did you do the testing?

• First I went through the Etoys Activity to get an idea about that activity.
• Then I went through the OLPC WIKI links to get an idea on how it works.
• I performed Smoke Testing to confirm my understanding on the activity.
• Then started to design the tests using the Decision Tree Diagrams.
• According to Decision Tree Diagrams, I wrote the test cases using the Test Case template.
• After completing the Peer and Lead Reviews, started the Testing and recorded the Test Results.

What kind of problems that you had to face?

• Downloading issues.
• Previously raised defects were not fixed in newly released builds.
• No proper understanding about some functionality, due to lack of information available.
