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.

• Tests/Home_view
• Tests/100_laptops - update chat, read, and add write, browse, and record
• Battery_Results - need new battery life tests for 8.2
• Use_Cases
• many of the pages in Category:Test Plans, e.g. those named Tests/Activity Name

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 stream. The basic query is

 {{#ask: [[Category:Test cases]] [[Build stream::Joyride]]  | additional options }}

One option you should always add is |default=Query for xyz found nothing?!, otherwise you'll have no indication a page has a query that isn't working.

{{#ask: Build stream::joyride

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

}}
