Dash Tests ============= Super Tap Timing on Slow Systems Note: Should be automated -------------------------------- This test verifies that tap duration thresholding (unique to Super and Alt) works on slow systems where previously it did not work reliably (LP: #953089). The problems with Super tap timing have only been observed on slow and/or heavily loaded systems, such as Atom-based netbooks. Setup: #. Start with a clean login. #. Load the CPU(s) by running one or more instances of this command in a terminal window(s): while true; do true; done Actions: #. Tap the Super key. Verify the Dash is shown. #. Tap the Super key again. Verify the Dash is hidden. #. Switch to a clear workspace (e.g. Super+Shift+Right). #. Tap the Super key again. Verify the Dash is shown again. #. Tap the Super key again. Verify the Dash is hidden again. Expected Result: The Dash should appear and disappear in response to each tap on the Super key. Note that a tap is anything faster than 1/4 of a second. Any press that lasts longer than that is not considered a tap. Dash correct number of "see more" results with horizontal renderer --------------------------- This test ensures a correct number of "see more" results in the dash when using a horizontal renderer (see lp:934944) Setup: Actions: #. Open the dash, navigate to a lens that uses a horizontal renderer such as the gwibber lens or music lens #. Ensure that a category in the results has a "See X more results" label #. Expand category that has "See X more results" label #. Count the number of results Expected Result: The number of results counted and the value for X in "See X more results" are the same. Dash Spinner ------------ This tests that the spinner is properly shown when searching with the Dash. Setup: Actions: #. Open the files lens (Super+A) #. Type an arbitrary search string Expected Result: If the search is taking more than ~150ms, a spinner should be animating next to the search bar, once the spinner stops spinning the results shouldn't change. Dash no-results-hint -------------------- This tests that the text displaying "Sorry nothing matches your search" is hidden when results are present (even in hard-to-automatically-test scenarios). Setup: Actions: #. Start guest session #. Open the Dash - there shouldn't be any results displayed, since this user account didn't interact with anything yet #. Run an application not present in the launcher (for example gedit) #. Close previously opened application Expected Result: When Dash is opened 'gedit' (or application you launched) should be displayed in the "Recent Apps" category. You shouldn't see "Sorry nothing matches your search" text. Dash category expand test -------------------------- This tests whether the dash expands a certain search results category if it is the only one containing search results. https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/950710 Setup: Actions: * Open the dash home view * Search for something on your system that returns multiple results (more than the number that can fit in a row) yet all results are in one category only. This differs per system; try searching for "gnome" in the home lens, or "kde" in the app lens. * Multiple results should be returned in both the cases, but if searching for "gnome" on the home lens returns folders in addition to apps or "kde" returns results from two categories in the apps lens, then keep experimenting with other search strings. * When you have at least one situation in which results from only one category are returned, and the number of results are enough to overflow one single row, the test is complete. Expected result: * When a single row of results isn't enough to contain all returned search results, and there are no other category headers, the displayed category header expands automatically Test the Panel does not lose track of when the Dash is opened then closed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This tests shows the panel will not think the Dash is opened when it is closed. (see lp:1044086) Actions: #. Press Super twice (Quickly) Expected Result: The screen should look the same as if you had never opened the dash. Test that when an on screen keyboard is used it will not close the Dash. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This tests shows that an on screen keyboards will not close the dash when clicking on it. (see lp:1058705) Setup: #. Open the on screen keyboard Onboard. #. Move Onboard to the bottom right of the screen. #. Open the Dash #. Ensure the Dash is not in fullscreen mode. #. Ensure that Onboard is outside of the Dash. Actions: #. Use Onboard to type "Hello" in the Dash. Expected Results: The Dash should stay open, and allow use of the on screen keyboard. Filter Results Tests ======================== These tests show that the dash "All" button works well. Test "All" Button 1 Note: Should be automated ------------------- Setup: Actions: #. Open app lens, and the "Filter results" sidebar Expected Result: "All" should be selected by default in every filter category. Test "All" Button 2 Note: Should be automated ------------------- Setup: #. Open app lens, and the "Filter results" sidebar #. Make sure the "All" button is selected. Actions: #. Try to activate it. Expected Result: Click on it should do nothing. Test "All" Button 3 Note: Should be automated ------------------- Setup: #. Open app lens, and the "Filter results" sidebar #. Make sure the "All" button is selected. Actions: #. Select another item in the filter category. Expected Result: The all button should automatically toggle to the un-selected state. Test "All" Button 4 Note: Should be automated ------------------- Setup: #. Open app lens, and the "Filter results" sidebar #. Make sure the one or more items is selected in a filter category. Actions: #. Deselect all selected items. Expected Result: The all button should automatically toggle to the selected state. Test Expand/Collapse Filters ------------------------------- This test shows that the expand/collapse arrow of a filter category header works well. Setup: #. Open the app lens. #. If necessary, show the results filter sidebar. #. Make sure that a collapse arrow is shown adjacent to every filter category header. Actions: #. Click on a category header arrow. #. Click on the arrow (again). Expected Result: When clicking for the first time the filter category should collapse. When clicking for the second time the filter category should expand. Drag and drop tests ==================== Launcher drop target saturation test --------------------------------------- Setup: # open the files lens Actions: # select and drag a document-file (e.g. text or image) to the launcher Expected Result: As you drag the document-file watch the drag-targets (drop-recepticals) saturate. this saturation-process should be smooth and without flicker. The tinting of the non-drag-targets should not change. Dash to Launcher document-file drag ----------------------------------- Setup: #. Open the Dash (Super). #. Go to the Music Lens. Actions: #. Drag any music file into the Firefox icon on the launcher. Expected Result: The Dash should close and the music file should open up in Firefox. DnD stacking ------------ Setup: #. Open the Dash (Super). Actions: #. Drag any icon from the dash and wave it over the dash and launcher area. Expected Result: The icon being dragged is drawn on top of the dash and launcher. Never below it. Lens Tests ============ Restarting of crashed lenses ---------------------------- This test makes sure that if a lens crashes, searching in the dash automatically restarts it. Setup: #. Open a terminal #. Make sure there are some results in the apps lens Actions: #. Kill the applications lens daemon in the terminal `killall /usr/lib/unity-lens-applications/unity-applications-daemon` #. Open the dash and search for something (for example "gedit") Expected Result: Applications lens should automatically restart and gedit should be visible in the results. Lazy start lenses test Regression testcase for https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/929506 Note: Should be automated ---------------------------------------------------- Setup: #. Restart your computer to get a clean unity instance Actions: 1. Login to your Unity-3D shell but don't start or do anything (e.g. don't press the super key and/or show the dash) 2. Verify the lensees are not running using the following command: $ ps axf|grep [u]nity-lens Output of this command should be empty 3. invoke dash (e.g. by pressing the Super key) 4. Verify the lenses were started by using the following command: $ ps axf|grep [u]nity-lens Expected Result: Step #2 should produce an empty output. Step #4 should produce something like this: $ ps axf|grep [u]nity-lens 2754 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/lib/unity-lens-applications/unity-applications-daemon 2756 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/lib/unity-lens-files/unity-files-daemon 2758 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/lib/unity-lens-music/unity-music-daemon 2760 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/lib/unity-lens-video/unity-lens-video 2816 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/lib/unity-lens-music/unity-musicstore-daemon Wrong Result: #2 and #4 both produce non-empty result which means the lenses were not lazy-loaded but they were running before the first dash use.
