Introduction

Since the time got too short to introduce a new VCL TestTool for testing OOo 2.3 http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Cws_gh13_vcltesttool_ooo_230 we will go on now at the beginning of the OOo 2.4 tree to get a new testtool.


We tested the CWS gh13 with all available test scripts. Now we want to use the VCL TestTool based on SRC680m226 as the new default testtool for OOo 2.4. It is currently declared as beta version.

Beta testing

Since we found almost all regressions by testing the CWS gh13 we will reduce testing for this version. In the beta testing phase Hamburg qa automation team will run the next master category test on the platforms for SRC680. It will take some time to start and evaluate the results, since OOo 2.3 is currently tested for release. Everybody else may also test the testtool version and report errors regarding the VCL TestTool application.

The binaries succeded the first.bas and topten.bas tests.

Currently existing downloadable VCL testtool binaries (SRC680m226) These are standalone VCL TestTool binaries.

  • Solaris Intel (Master tester MSC)
  • Solaris Sparc (Master tester JSI)
  • Linux (Master tester FHA)
  • Windows (Master tester HDE)
  • MacOS X PPC Aqua (Tester needed)
  • MacOS X Intel Aqua (Tester needed)
  • MacOS X PPC X11 (not tested, since it will get deprecated.)

After the testtool is declared as final, this version will be used by Hamburg qa team, and it is the reference for everybody else; If you find a bug or issue with an testtool other than the final testtool version you have to verify if it also comes up with the reference testtool.

Errors found during beta testing
