Summary

Describe in a few phrases the main findings of the testing. If someone read only this part of the report, what would you want them to

Findings

• perhaps add one of those inline help question marks to the "This source package is not sharing translations with an upstream project." option so people will better understand what that is for

• Link to upstream project page on https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gnuhello/+edit-packaging shows the "Change" button followed by "or or" and then "Cancel" link.

• The table displayed here https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gwibber have headers "language" and "status" left aligned and untranslated, need review, changed headers right aligned. The cell contents are all left aligned which makes the number under the "Changed" column looks like it belongs to the "need review" column

AJAX overlay testing

• Message box says "Translations are currently being linked by a background job. When that job has finished, translations will be shared with the upstream project.". So... uhh... does that mean the box goes away? Or does that mean we should refresh? How does the user figure out that this is done

  • Starting at https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gwibber/+sharing-details

  • Set up a upstream project (e.g. gwibber)
  • On "Translations are enabled on the upstream project." overlay click the submit button
    • XXX: Trying to undo this to test and I get "Sorry, an error occurred while loading the form" message when I click the edit icon next to "translations are enabled" link.
  • You get the background job message

• We can all remove the link between the Gwibber source package and the Gwibber series – is this correct? (We are all registry admins, so yes. need to be a no-priv account to verify). no-priv accounts can't see "Sharing information" in the main page: http://ubuntuone.com/p/mG1/

  • XXX: Deryck to make sure that dpm & Kyle Nietzsche (kyleN) are enabled to test this

• Usage settings permission issues: 758920

• AJAX overlay uses a cancel button rather than a link (Usage settings & Import settings): 758901

• When choosing "Translations are enabled on the upstream project." (or negative equivalent) the "title" of the box is gives me no clue about what I'm changing: 758852

• Linked branch should look like lp://qastaging/gwibber/1.0, rather than ~gwibber-committers/gwibber/2.0, because we always link to branches using the former: 758857

• AJAX overlay says "Select productseries" in "No upstream project series has

  • been linked" <https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gwibber/+sharing-details>: 758845

• http://ubuntuone.com/p/mFG/ Two messages contradicting each other at https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gnuhello/+sharing-details: 758883

  • XXX: Bug needs reproducing instructions

• In the "Automatic synchronization of translations is not enabled" option, choosing the "import template files" doesn't work and there's no feedback message telling why it didn't work. Choosing "import template files and translation files" works. This happened with the ~gwibber-committers/gwibber/2.0 upstream branch linked. 758896

• OOPS-1928QS216 unlink package association in +remove-packaging page: 758902

• Non-default way of showing error in https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gwibber/+remove-packaging when there's no packaging link: 758904

• 412 Precondition failed error setting translation branch to the same as before. 758919

  • Go to https://translations.qastaging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gnuhello/+sharing-details

  • Edit the upstream source branch. You'll get an overlay called "Select translation branch".
  • Type in the name of the branch currently selected, hit "Enter"
  • Select the only branch that comes up.
  • You will get a 412 Precondition failed error.
    • Should handle the 412 when setting this again, not notify on it (discard if it's the same branch?)

• There should be something on the page (spinner?) informing the action is being processed, after choosing an option in the automatic syncronization settings because there is a delay before the action takes affect: 758922

• Submit button on AJAX overlays doesn't say what it's submitting, for "Import settings" and "Usage settings": 758929

• When adding an upstream link right after an unlinking, it links successfully with the green glowing AJAX, but the unlinking message doesn't disappear ("Removed upstream association between something series and Natty."). This happens to all "permanent" messages. 758976

Recommendations

• Short recommendation that describes the outcome, rather than the implementation detail.
• Consider things that would make testing easier.
