Nautilus Beta
Test Assertions
Document Description:
These test assertions are for the Nautilus file manager, to be
shipped with the new Gnome desktop for the Solaris operating system.
The test assertions are high level tests designed to test the main
functionality, as well as the look, feel and usability of the
Nautilus G.U.I.. This document will comprise of positive tests,
designed to confirm functionality. Negative testing, i.e. generation
of error messages, will be covered in a subsequent document.
Additional to the high level test cases described below, a list of
bugs found during the test execution/writing will be included as an
appendix to the test assertion document.
Document Version: 0.1
Software Version:
Preview Release 1.
Audience:
This
document is intended for all personnel involved in testing Nautilus,
aswell as all personnel at a management level involved in the
Nautilus project.
Date of Test Execution:
To be confirmed
Project
build Number:
This is a preview/beta build.
Default
configuration:
The following holds for each test case unless otherwise
stated in the body of the test case description:
1] The user will be logged in to Nautilus in
Expert Mode.
2] The user is in 'View as Icons' mode.
3] The default zoom setting is at 100%.
Test
Case Structure:
Test No. : This is the test case
mnemonic, it is unique for each test case. It comprises of the
following syntax: "[test section][test area][test area number]"
e.g. func_edit01 -> this test case
mnemonic would relate to the first test case to be executed under the
Edit main menu in the functional test section. *A list of the
abbreviations used in the test case mnemonic is provided below.
Test Case Description: This
includes the one line description of the test case, a kind of test
case summary. Also steps to recreate the test case may be included,
depending on how complex the test case is to execute. If this is the
case and there are numbered steps within the test case description
section, then each step has a corresponding result in the Expected
Result section of the test case body, i.e. Step one in the Expected
Result section would be the predicted output for step one in the Test
Case Description section of the test case body.
Expected Result: This section of
the test case contains the expected output of the test case action.
This is what the actual output of the test case is compared against
to determine if the test case may be deemed passed or failed.
Actual Result: This
section contains the actual output of the test case, this is compared
against the predicted output of the test case to determine if the
test case has passed or failed.
Risks And Assumptions:
1]
There has been minimal documentation made available, this is due to
the project being in an early stage and the fact that Nautilus is
open source. This means that there is no reference functionality to
base the test cases on. In other words I have had to write the test
cases based on the functionality seen in the Nautilus application,
not knowing whether or not this is the correct functionality.
2]
This is the first preview release of the Nautilus application by
Eazel, and as such, the functionality is likely to change slightly
before the first full release. If this is the case, several of the
test assertions outlined below may not apply. Also this means that
some functionality may not be covered by the tests below.
