QA

Resources and assets for Ubuntu MATE quality assurance testers.

The goal of this project is to facilitate comprehensive test coverage of Ubuntu MATE and MATE Desktop user-exposed software components.

Way to test all applications with *.desktop-files

There is a special script named launch-all-desktop-apps.sh, it is located at manual-tests/launch-all-desktop-apps.sh.

It was designed to run all applications which have *.desktop-files and are not hidden. The script runs each application and allows user to watch ~/.xsession-errors log file in the same terminal.

Possible workflow for the script is the following:

  1. user downloads latest daily Ubuntu MATE ISO file to run it in live or in installed variant;
  2. opens terminal and runs this script to detect anomalies of programs, their behavior and ~/.xsession-errors log usage;
  3. depending on the results user proceed with bug sorting or reporting new ones.
