(a) ISOs for testing
- Riddell from Neon promises to get us test ISOs in time for test days,
will poke him well ahead of time to plan more
- No comm yet with other distros
- einar77 may be able to interface with openSUSE for us
(b) Test cases
- Jens wrote down some ideas, currently on the etherpad
(https://notes.kde.org/p/plasma-57-testday)
- d_ed ran some tests as part of GCI, his testcases can be found at:
https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Quality/Beta/4.10/Plasma
- Jens will bring of some ideas into d_ed's format for next week's meeting
- Bhushan will add some desktop/panel related test cases
- Discussed splitting tests into seperate lists for VM vs. live USB vs.
hdd install to account for environmental conditions and what sort of
persistence support there is
- Decided to limit ourselves to test cases assuming clean config (fresh
ISO boot / new user) for now to keep complexity low
- Decided to keep the number as well areas of test cases small for now;
we still need to learn how many we can handle during Test Days
- Decided to focus test cases on core desktop shell (panels, launchers,
desktop, task management, window management, related config)
- Decided to avoid writing test cases involving kdeplasma-addons for now
- Eike will look into writing locale-specific test cases later
(c) Dates
- Pondered rescheduling test days due to conflict with Randa sprint
ending on the 19th and people being tired or travelling
- Not much wiggle room to move, scheduled dates (June 19th/20th) are
soon after beta (16th) and soon before final release (30th)
- Core Test Days team (bshah, jensreu, eike) not impacted by Randa
- Decided not to reschedule
- Next prep meeting Tuesday 12:00 UTC in #plasma

Cheers,

[19:30] bshah, jensreeuu: ping, meeting time
[19:30] my tea is coming soon... but o/
[19:30] pongity!
[19:30] ok, this is the second prep meeting for the upcoming plasma 5.7
test days
[19:30] pong too
[19:31] for recap, this is last week's notes:
https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2016-April/051776.html
[19:31] I've added to them Sho_
[19:31] For this week
[19:31] and this is our meeting etherpad:
https://notes.kde.org/p/plasma-57-testday
[19:31] i have three agenda points i'm aware of for today:
[19:31] - check on progress re distro communication re isos
[19:31] I have two I havent done at all though
[19:31] - discuss sample test cases if we have any yet
[19:31] Ah
[19:31] - someone suggested we might want to change the test days date
due to conflicting with randa schedule-wise
[19:32] I wrote some for Plasma 4.9/4.10 for some bug days I used to
run: https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Quality/Beta/4.10/Plasma
[19:32] kbroulik: published!
https://dot.kde.org/kde-augsburger-linux-tag (well be on front page when cache
clears)
[19:32] let's go through the agenda point by point, so first would be
the ISO stuff
[19:32] d_ed: MAN your testcases are wy more well done than my
wild scribbles
[19:32] Yesd
[19:33] jensreeuu: have you had any time to talk to any of the distros
you listed last time? (kaos, opensuse, fedora, neon)
[19:33] Well I haven't talked to the distro people yet, so not much
reply.
[19:33] Kaos, an email, fedora an email - Neon well Riddell?
[19:33] * Sho_ looks too Riddell as well
[19:33] Someone else need to take Opensuse though
[19:34] <-- JunkHunk (~i...@203.red-83-54-4.dynamicip.rima-tde.net) has left
this server (Quit: Saliendo).
[19:34] on the opensuse front we can try to rope einar77_work into
interfacing for us
[19:34] * Riddell looks around
[19:34] *** ochurlaud is now known as ochurlaud--away.
[19:34] Hello! Do you wanna have neon used as a testbase for the
bug testing in June Riddell?
[19:34] Riddell: if we do plasma 5.7 test days on June 19th and 20th (or
around that time in case we move them a bit), can we work with Neon to get us
ISO images with testable git code in time?
[19:34] jensreeuu: it would be an honour
[19:35] Riddell: <3
[19:35] Riddell: sucha gentleman :)
[19:35] Sho_: yes indeed
[19:35] Riddell: last time i checked though neon was a repo people add
to a kubuntu or something, are there actual ISOs with fresh coden ow?
[19:35] (apologies i am totally and miserably out of loop)
[19:35] Sho_: certainly are http://files.kde.org/neon/
[19:35] (i am a mere code monkey)
[19:35] awesome
[19:36] and user edition ones (released tars) still hidden away at
http://images.neon.kde.org/neon-useredition-proposed/
[19:36] With Kaos I have yet to get a reply, and with Fedora I dont
know if my nagging contacts worked
[19:36] that means we have at least one testing ISO locked in
[19:36] --> mgraesslin (~martin@kde/mgraesslin) has joined this channel.
[19:36] Riddell: we'll poke you well ahead of time
