Re: [Libreoffice-qa] [libreoffice-accessibility] Adding Accessibility component to Bug Assistant

2012-09-03 Thread Petr Mladek
Rainer Bielefeld píše v Pá 31. 08. 2012 v 06:36 +0200:
 the advantage of an Accessibility Component would be that it can 
 easily be selected from a pulldown, no typos or other mistakes can 
 happen.But a problem is that an Accessibility Component would not 
 indicate what developer might be the one who can fix the problem. So it 
 always would be replaced during the bug triaging and fixing process.

Well, I think think that most bugs will be about that accessibility does
not work at all or that it does not work for some particular UI
elements. I think that most bugs will affect all LO applications and
will be in the shared code = the component would be fine after all.

I would imagine that we get an expert interested for these bugs.


 So I currently think about a Bug Submission Assistant enhancement. We 
 can add a checkbox Accessibility affected, and the Assistant will add 
 Accessibility

Interesting idea; Well, it does not solve the problem when people report
bugs directly into bugzilla.

 a) as additional pseudo key word to the Bug Summary line. The advantage 
 of this solution is that the key word would be very visible.
 or
 b) as additional pseudo key word to the whiteboard
 or will
 c) set Key word Accessibility to the Keyword pane (it should not be a 
 problem to get this new key word from FDO). The advantae of this 
 solution is that it also eases and unifies handling in Bugzilla itself, 
 not only via BSA.
 And of course
 d) New Component Accessibility
 still can be discussed.
 
 My order of preference (descending):
 c - a - b - d

 Your opinion?

After all, my preference is: d a b c

d - is easiest for implementing and also for using by disabled users;
it would work well
a - is natural; people would mention this word anyway in the summary
b - we use whiteboard in many other situations already
c - keywords are not much used these days = non-standard solution

  What is the exact plan with the queries? :-)
 
 If there is a question like this:
 
 Hmm, I want to help LibreOffice, but I don't know where to start..!
 
 There is no real answer for QA, except: Have a look at bugzilla.
 There you have to query the bugs you want to triage and then filter
 the OS, so that you can test properly... TBC ... BTW: If you have any
 questions, feel free to ask at this list
 
 Answer like it should IMHO be: You can download a .ods file here:
 Link In this file, you can see bugs, which needs to be triaged. Open
 the table with your OS and click one of the bug numbers. The queries
 are auto-updated each hour. For more info, questions ect. ask here.
 
 But it didn't work due to a bug (which should be filed ASAP).

I see, it makes sense. Note that Joel already created some documents,
see Google Documents Bug Groups at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugTriage_InProgress

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Shift 3.7.0 or 3.7.X releases - was: ANNOUNCE: Release plan updated - two weeks between RCs

  As mentioned, the 3.7.0 release and 3.7.1-rc1 are planed for the same

  3.7.0 users.
 
 Comparing:
 
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule
  http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/3.7
 
 I find currently:
 
 - the 3.7.0 is already too late for a Alpha1/FeatureFreeze

Well, the LO feature freeze is already for beta1 in December. The hard
code freeze is three weeks before the .0 release. I guess that 3.6.0-rc2
would be fine for Ubuntu alpha1.

 - the 3.7.1 is already currently is ok for the BetaFreeze (LibreOffice is 
 seeded)
 - the 3.7.2 release is fitting in just before Final Freeze

I see. OK, we can't move it later.

 - the 3.7.3 release is already a SRU (stable release update)


  Possible solutions:
  
  1. Make 3.7.0 two weeks earlier. I am not happy to change this so close
 to the feature freeze.

It might be possible. Let's discuss it on ESC call this week.

  2. Make 3.7.X bugfix releases 1 or 2 weeks later. It might cause
 troubles for Ubuntu, Fedora, and other distros who planed to use .3
 bugfix release in their distro releases.
  
 Well, they might use 3.7.3-rc1 or 3.7.2. They should be pretty good
 as well. The number of weeks for bugfixing stays the same.
 
 3.x.3 is already too late for us currently -- however, pushing back two weeks
 would make 3.7.2 miss final freeze. In that case I would have to seriously
 consider to not ship that series at all -- shipping with a 3.7.1 is very 
 likely
 too early.

This is no way. We do not want to break your release.


  3. Remove 3.7.0-rc3 or some beta. It would mean to do the hard code
 freeze 1 or two weeks earlier = less time for testing and fixing
 
 Personally, that sounds like the best option for me for 3.7.

I am not much happy with it because it could cause worse quality of .0
release.


  4. Do 3.7.0-RCs every week (use the original schedule). There is not
 enough time for feedback = demotivating for QA.

After all, this is still good solution. We released, 3.5 and 3.6 this
way and it somehow worked. The .0 release is always hectic and we get
many fixes every week, so the two weeks delay between rc2 and rc3 would
be too long.

If ESC rejects moving the whole release two weeks earlier, I would go
with tho 4th solution and do builds every week for 3.7.0 and 3.7.1
releases. Of course, I would shift the whole release in the future.

Thanks for feedback.


Best Regards,
Petr

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Regression test (Moztrap) test case localization temporary solution.

So the feedback from our team is the 2nd presentation that is preferred

May be we can go for the first presentation until we get more languages

expected results are grouped for the same language.


Sophie, thanks a lot for getting the feedback.

When I think about it, also the 2nd approach can be parsed by a script.
It is more complicated, probably more error prone but possible. Thus it
can be moved into to really localized framework almost automatically as
well.

So, the second approach is probably the best temporary solution.


Thanks for your investigation :) For information, I will try to organize 
a testing session on Moztrap for the 3.6.3 version with the FR project. 
May be we can try to organize a full session with very few languages, 
like may be DE, JA, FR at the same time?
Also do you have an idea of the time needed (day per man dev) and the 
cost to make Moztrap fully localized (UI + content) ?


Kind regards
Sophie

2012-09-03 Thread Yifan Jiang
Hi Sophie, Petr, all,

Thanks for the discussion and sorry for the late response that I was busy of
other works these days :(

Visually the second one is also my most favorite, so let's start here.

In this week, I will arrange time to update the test cases and make their
format consistent with the prototype 2.

http://vm12.documentfoundation.org/manage/case/99/

@Sophie, As for the 3.6.3 testing, do you have an estimation when would it be
happening? Currently there are only English cases in the database migrated
from Litmus. We will still need some time to migrate other language versions
before arranging tests. Looking back to Litmus, there are 4 languages version
of test cases: en/de/fr/pt-Br, if necessary we could also create Ja section
awaiting for input.

As for the l10n related hacking, they need large scope of changes in both
frontend and backend. I would plan at least 1 dev month to do all the stuff
including: Moztrap UI l10n implementing, test case l10n hacking and the
relevant tests before they are good enough to be online.

Best wishes,
Yifan
