Purpose of Test Group Release Notes
If you are thinking of loading a new image; come to this page first and see if the build you are going to load has any major problems. If it can't even pass the Smoke Test, you probably don't want to use it.

If you don't see anything here on the latest release, please add your notes on smoke test and/or basic functionality to help the next guy.

Regression/Smoke Test

General smoke and regression tests:

1 Hour Smoke Test

Full-build smoke test

This set of test cases represents a quick smoke test that the build should pass. See the smoke tests for a particular release for more details.

  1. Boot into sugar
  2. Check the OS, OFW, kernel from developer's console
  3. Check wireless firmware version: from virtual terminal type ethtool -i eth0.
  4. Connect to a local mesh and see other XOs (this needs to be in a location with no school server or infrastructure AP)
  5. Run 3 collaborative activities concurrently (AbiWord, Connect4, or Chat) with 2 other XOs
  6. Run Browse and ensure that library navigation sidebar and index page loads; successfully browse the internet.
  7. Ensure that the journal loads properly at start and is able to resume an activity.
  8. Connect to an AP (and/or school mesh) and browse the web

  • Can't connect to standard, open Access Points. trac ticket 4826
    • This is actually the result of single clicks being seen as double clicks trac ticket 4763

    • your laptop may freeze trying to come out of suspend, and you will have to reboot the machine
    • your laptop may reboot itself when coming out of a suspend. trac 4635
