Thanks to everyone who is stepping forward to help with this. I have put
together a page so everyone can see what's happening with the testcases
this week:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/QuantalTestcaseUpdates
Remember, our goal is to finish the items listed for beta2 this week :-)
You might see your name under some work items. If you put forth interest
in helping, I've added you ;-)
Please do take a look and get started on what's been assigned. If your
not on the list, it's not too late. Email me your interest, and I can
help you get started.
Also, I'd like to let everyone know the changes mentioned in the bug
reports on my first email are coming along. Thank you stgraber for
helping to get these out! You can see the changes in action on the
staging site here:
http://packages.qa.dev.stgraber.org/qatracker/milestones/225/builds/16296/testcases/1303/results
http://packages.qa.dev.stgraber.org/qatracker/milestones/225/builds/16297/testcases/1303/results
Though one is for ubuntu and the other xubuntu, they are using the same
testcase -- AND the xubuntu testcase reads 'xubuntu' properly instead of
ubuntu! Now we have better support for re-using the testcase across the
flavors. In addition, the testcase is now folded by default to make it
easier to report results without scrolling through the testcase first.
Finally, here's a preview of knome's work to make our testcases more
readable in the tool:
http://packages.qa.dev.stgraber.org/qatracker/milestones/225/builds/16296/testcases/1305/results
We'll be doing work to switch over the testcases after beta 2.
Thanks!

Ok, feature freeze and beta1 craziness is now behind us. Some of you may
have noticed, but the first phase of our testcase migration is now
complete. All the old testcases (including the application testcases!)
are now migrated into the tracker. You can see the general application
testcases from last cycle in the 'ubuntu global jam' milestone on the
package tracker:
http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/235/builds
What this means is work can now begin on enhancing and improving the
testcases and testsuites we have. The first testcases being targedt are
the image testcases. As many of you noticed, they need to be updated to
match the new features found in the beta1 installer. To that end there's
a few bugs out there to support rolling out the changes to the testcases:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-qa-website/+bug/1039158
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-qa-website/+bug/1050489
The goals to have done for beta2 are:
-Updating testcases for new ubiquity features (webcam take a
picture, lvm, encryption, etc)
-Adding alternate-only testcases back to the desktop cd's as needed
(need testcases for the livecd, memtest, etc)
-Migration of ubuntu testcases to all flavors (the changes above
should allow this to happen)
-Finishing the last ubuntu server testcases for rollout
In regards to the flavor testcases, flavor specific pieces will be
additional testcases on-top of the default ubuntu testcases. The bugs
above will support varying the displaying of
'ubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu/kubuntu/ubuntu studio/mythbuntu/edubuntu' inside
the testcases, allowing us to share all the bulk of maintenance as much
as possible. I know some of you have been helpful in wanting to write
testcases. There is actually a team of folks
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/TestCaseAdmins/ManagementOverview
and a specific format
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/TestCaseFormat
that is being followed. If your interested in helping, please get in
touch with me. You can help write testcases, verify testcases that have
been written, help out with migrating testcases, etc.
For Kubuntu, it looks like the KDE U/I for the lvm and encryption changes will
land before beta 2, so we'll need to make sure those test cases appear for
Kubuntu live images as well. We're also likely to drop the alternates during
beta 2 if we get a fully qualified set of desktop images, so we'd also need the
alternate only cases added to Kubuntu desktop as well.
