It's important that we are able to test new features, and demonstrate them to users. Use this section to describe a short plan that anybody can follow that demonstrates the feature is working. This can then be used during CD testing, and to show off after release. This need not be added or completed until the specification is nearing beta. |
This would be easily tested by simply running the adept_updater with kdesu and verifying that it is not displaying a welcome screen anymore. |

This should highlight any issues that should be addressed in further specifications, and not problems with the specification itself; since any specification with problems cannot be approved. | N/A |
Please check the status of this specification in Launchpad before editing it. If it is Approved, contact the Assignee or another knowledgeable person before making changes.
Launchpad Entry: adept-welcome-screen-must-die
Packages affected: adept
Summary
After this work is complete, a user would launch the adept updater and they should see sources updating and then packages needing update. No welcome screen. Just right down to business.
Release Note
Adept updater no longer has the unnecessary welcome screen, bit instead takes you to updating your sources and upgrading your system faster and easier.
Rationale
The welcome screen in adept updater is unnecessary. It should be removed so that folks can update their systems quicker and more intuitively.
Use Cases
Garfield sees the adept notifier in his system icons, and clicks it. He notices that unlike in the past, he only sees sources being updated and then he sees all of the packages that need to be updated.
Assumptions
N/A?
Design
Adept updater opens, sources update, shows upgradable packages.
Implementation
UI Changes
Kill the adept updater welcome screen.
Code Changes
This should, IIRC, only require a change of the app.cpp in adept/updater/.
Test/Demo Plan
This would be easily tested by simply running the adept_updater with kdesu and verifying that it is not displaying a welcome screen anymore.
