TestPlan 8.2.0
OLPC Test Areas/Features for 8.2.0
This is a work-in-progress...
Major test areas/features to be covered are:
Collaboration/Connectivity
Between XOs with simple mesh.
Between XOs with a school server with an active antenna and an access point (associate with 802.11 b/g access points with or without WEP and WPA1 encryption). P.S. Access point connectivity is currently a priority.
In a mixed environment, allow switching between different modes of connectivity.
Journal/Datastore
List, search, and filter records of actions on the system by time
Filter records of actions by title
Be able to display and edit DOC, ODT, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WAV, OGG, HTML, JS, some SWF, and several other less-well known formats. This needs correction!!!
We expect NOT to be able to display [go/Restricted_Formats restricted formats] including MP3, MPEG, most AVI, RM, FLV, etc.
Power Management (Power Control & Conservation)
When the lid is closed or when the power button is pressed while Sugar is running, suspend in order to conserve power.
Resume from suspend in response to lid opening or power-button presses
Cut power by holding the power button for several seconds
Power off or reset the machine via the Central XO-person's Palette
Control screen brightness and suspend state from the root command-line
Control screen brightness with the brightness keys in Sugar
Installation/Upgrade
Must be installable in the factory and upgradable from 656, 703 and 708 via USB or network.
Must be able to clean install (from a USB stick) or upgrade (over the Internet) a production image and activities to a laptop. All previous data will be lost. Tests/Boot/Cleaninstall
Access the root account via the virtual terminals or via the Terminal activity (if present) should be supported.
Access to the firmware "ok" prompt w/ developer key, requestable through Browse and installable through the Terminal.
Firmware
Developer keys should grant access to OFW.
Should be able to flash any build from OFW.
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]
Security
Laptops should travel through the delivery chain unactivated.
Laptops should not boot until they are activated.
Can be activated wirelessly (with a school server) (not recently tested)
Can be activated via USB.
Localization
Keyboards Must support all keyboards that we developed. "Support" is defined as:
- There is a keyboard silkscreen, approved and able to be produced at Quanta
- The keys on the keyboard map to the appropriate characters on the display
- The text on the screen renders legibly and is directionally correct (left to right, right to left)
The tests to determine items 2 and 3 only include text that is typed in the Sugar UI, Write and Browse.
Translations Translations need to be developed and approved by the country as OLPC does not have language expertise.
User documentation
Inside XO and online (wiki) available
Help Activity for G1G1
USB/SD Peripherals
USB read, write, mount and unmount must work.
Mouse and keyboard must connect and work.
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.
USB ethernet adapters, keyboards, and mice should function similarly to their normal function on other operating systems.
Login via serial consoles. (very low priority)
Sugar GUI
TBD
Activities
Installing or removing activities should never change the ability of the system to run.
Interact with one activity or "location" at a time
Switch between the current activity and other locations with the view keys or the frame
Switch between activities with Alt-Tab or the activity ring
Start new activities and stop running ones with the frame, ring, or activity toolbar.
Browse must render the same web sites as before. See also

Pippy, Record, and TamTam will be able to play and record sounds.
Pippy and Record will be able to take photographs.
Record will be able to record short videos.
Measure will be able to measure signals with or without DC voltage bias.
Volume keys on the keyboard will adjust the speaker volume while Sugar is running.
Control audio volume with the volume keys in sugar
Pictures can be composed with text in a system editor such as Write. (We actually expect [go/Write Write] to do a lot of other things.)
Fancier multimedia like video, audio, and programs can be manipulated in an environment like [go/EToys EToys].
Copy-and-paste media clips between activities
Download media clips into the Journal

Performance/scalability
Loading activities should take the same time or less than previous release.
The number of laptops that can share/collaborate should be as many or more than the previous release for each scenario.
Hardware/Firmware
Robust behavior, ability to operate with user-oriented (touch-pad, keyboard, etc.) and external devices (mouse, etc.)
