Test Plan

This test plan is not supposed to be complete; use it to guide your manual testing so they don't miss big functional areas that are part in the component; also this should be used as guideline to inspire the exploratory testing which should be adapted smartly based on the real content of a release

• Successful run of automated CI testing
• Verify that the mir-tests-tools snap works

Testing mir-test-tools

These tests should work on all supported series of Classic and on Ubuntu Core. First check that the classic channel has been updated with the release candidate:

• $ snap info mir-test-tools

This should show something like:

• candidate: 1.2.0-snap45 2019-05-22 (415) 121MB -

Where the version number matches the release being tested.

• $ snap install --candidate mir-test-tools

There's a "handy script" to test the snap on the Wiki:

• https://github.com/MirServer/mir-test-tools/wiki/Notes

Copy this and run it.
