Much of this week was spent testing apps in landscape mode on Nexus 10 (manta) and Nexus 7 (flo). Nexus 7 found especially problematic in landscape due to the vertical space being less than that on our initial target device - Nexus 4. Some apps need a little redesign to work when when ran on these form factors. On the positive side this was a great way for us to throw some of the convergence ideas around and resolve those issues. Kunal is working on much needed performance improvements to Calendar after some simple profiling in QtCreator. I'd recommend all Core Apps developers to profile all aspects of their applications as there are some things to learn and real gains to be made here. Many apps received a new icon - not all have landed in store yet, but all are in-flight. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1281781 We also had a not insignificant amount of pain from moving to cmake. Mising icons, missing plugins, plain broken apps. Lessons have been learned! One ongoing alarms issue with EDS has prevented Clock and Calendar updates from landing. == Reminders == * Lots of work to get Reminders working well on a tablet / landscape interface. Iterated through a few options but ultimately identified a gap in the SDK where multi-pane apps are concerned. Worked around for now so as to deliver a robust experience for MWC demos. Further work required to make better use of space. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1281604 - Add a workaround to get back to the home view * Implement sorting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279779 - Reminders tab needs sorting by date and time * Allow attaching of images to notes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1277557 - Adding images with the content hub does not work * Font Improvements https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1273111 - Font size in notes must be bigger == Music == * Added search functionality! https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1269037 - Provide search functionality * Fix issues caused by the cmake transition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1284025 - Music app 356 on mako image 206 doesn't play music launched from dash 1st time * Bug fixes resulting from testing on Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 == Calendar == * Added reminder support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240539 - Reminder doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270241 - Add the ability to set the reminder time * Removed the sidestage hint so calendar now runs in main stage on Nexus 7/10 * We had an issue * Performance improvements to year view underway after profiling == Clock == * Alarms have landed! * Some bugs found in Alarms functionality ;) * Additonal autopilot tests. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1188809 - Autopilot Testcase needed: Add alarm https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1188810 - Autopilot Testcase needed: Remove alarms * UI improvements * Performance improvments under idle conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199073 - clock app on galaxy nexus generates ~2500 context switches a second * First cut at converged view of clock https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1174575 - Clock app does not adapt well to landscape view == Weather == * Finally landed The Weather Channel backend! * Went through many iterations of testing working on implementing community designed converged view for tablets, which landed in time or MWC == Terminal == * Finally fixed the long standing bug thanks to dandrader, vthompson and sil2100! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1257791 Enter and backspace broken in terminal * Moved settings from tab to panel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257871 - Settings should be an icon on the toolbar instead of a tab == RSS Reader == * Updated converged grid view for tablets * App renamed to Shorts == File Manager == * Add desktop oriented features https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1195042 Add ability to open multiple tabs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1255643 Allow bookmarks/places bar to be collapsed * Remove deprecated properties https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1275061 ListItems.Standard.icon and ListItems.Base.icon are deprecated Cheers, -- Alan Pope Engineering Manager Canonical - Product Strategy +44 (0) 7973 620 164

Getting Started with Autopilot - autopilot run helloworld runs 0 tests.
Hello QA, I am trying out Nicholas's autopilot tutorial, Getting started with autopilot. After branching auto-pilot walkthrough, I followed the steps, and this was my output. john@epikvision:~$ cd autopilot-walkthrough john@epikvision:~/autopilot-walkthrough$ autopilot list helloworld Loading tests from: /home/john/autopilot-walkthrough helloworld.test_example.ExampleFunctions.test_assert helloworld.test_example.ExampleFunctions.test_keyboard helloworld.test_example.ExampleFunctions.test_mouse helloworld.test_hello.HelloWorld.test_type_hello_world 4 total tests. john@epikvision:~/autopilot-walkthrough$ ls firefox helloworld john@epikvision:~/autopilot-walkthrough$ autopilot run helloworld.test_hello* Loading tests from: /home/john/autopilot-walkthrough Tests running... Ran 0 tests in 0.000s OK When I ran autopilot, it didn't run any tests. I expected a gedit window to appear after the test was run, but it didn't happen. Also, there was not three but four functions listed (not that it may be significant). I would like to carry on with the tutorial, but I'm stuck. Thanks very much.

Updating daily builds on a daily basis.
Hello ubuntu-qa, I'm John Kim. Yesterday, I installed Ubuntu 13.04 Raring daily build from the cdimage.ubuntu.com site on my laptop, and I'm glad to say it works really great. (It wasn't the same for my desktop, however :[ ) To ensure that my computer is completely up-to-date with the daily build, what commands help me achieve it? I was thinking just doing: $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade at around noon in my timezone daily is the only sequence. Can I be missing something? Thanks, John Kim-- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality
Re: Updating daily builds on a daily basis.
Sanjeev Gutpa, So do you only run those two commands at different times throughout the day? Are there any other commands to be aware of? How can I ensure that by running those two commands, I get the daily build from the uk.archive.ubuntu.com archive? Because by default, mine is set to us.archive.ubuntu.com. Thanks.

Can I be missing something? I have been doing this since 11.10, staying with daily updates to Ubuntu+1. Two observations: I see updates throughout the day, not just noon. Sometimes I see updates three or more times in a workday. Using uk.archive.ubuntu.com , seems to have updates a few hours faster. -- Sanjeev Gupta +65 98551208 http://www.linkedin.com/in/ghane -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality
