Hello All, I thought the Ubuntu Studio Testers group and mail list might maximize its potential by discussing some standardized testing procedures.
Currently I believe that the depth of testing is generally limited to installation. What I am proposing is developing a deeper testing regime at the application (or functionality) level. I am hoping that we can have some discussions that will lead to a codified testing system (perhaps graduated for different releases) that will be documented at the Ubuntu Studio Testing wiki page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Testing). Here are my general and simplified suggestions, which are admittedly biased towards audio. AUDIO * start JACK in real-time and get sounds from an instrument out of speakers * record sound through JACK into Ardour * play back sound through Ardour I would like to suggest a method for testing MIDI and synths functionality but I'm not versed with either since I'm a musical instrument kind of guy. Perhaps someone else can suggest it. VIDEO * start KINO * start PiTiVi GRAPHICS * start blender * start GIMP These are just some very simple ideas that can go beyond the superficial installation test and functionally test Ubuntu Studio on an application level. Again, I am hoping for dialogue from everyone on this list so that we can develop a comprehensive testing programme together and document it. Warmest Regards, Scott Lavender
