Create New Test Cases

To add a new test case, click here: New Test Case

  • Use /Tests/<category>/<sub-category/ as the name of the new test case
  • Try to use categories and sub-categories that already exist before creating new ones.

Top level categories: Boot, Network, Upgrades, Journal, SugarUI, SugarControlPanel, Peripherals, Activity, XS (school server)

General (older) Test Cases

This is a list of test cases that existed before the test case template. Once these have been moved into the template, this section can go away.

Test Cases

Test cases should use Template:Test case so they can be queried and reported automatically.

Here is a test query that lists all the test cases. Edit this page to see the syntax. We want to ask for all test cases that apply to 8.2.0. There is a Property:Build stream, so let's ask for all Category:Test cases that are in the Joyride or Any streams.


{{#ask: |any

 | ?Short name
 | ?Test objective
 | default=No articles found in Category:Test cases with Property:Stream of joyride or any?

}}

Test results

This is a little tricky. Currently each test cast page has zero-to-many test results embedded in it, which means a test case can have multiple values for build number, pass/fail, etc. and these values are probably not tied to each other. See Semantic MediaWiki for alternative approaches.

Anyway, here's a query for any page with a Fail that also displaying some other values.

{{#ask:

 PassFail::Fail
 | ?PassFail
 | ?Build number
 | ?Trac bug number
 | default = No tests failing??

}}
