Testing guide¶
Great that you want to take OpenAppStack for a test drive ! This guide contains instructions to get you going, some pointers on what we think would be useful to test, and guesses at what results of those tests would be useful to write down. At any point please feel invited to test whatever functionality you come across, and reporting whatever you think is interesting. Our contact details are listed here, and we’ll descibe how to give feedback via our issue tracker at the end of these instructions.
During these instructions, please replace example.org with your own domain name.
OAS installation¶
First we’d like you to setup an OpenAppStack cluster by yourself, following the Installation overview and Usage documentation and make sure you complete all steps.
Command line tests¶
Please Run the CLI tests which checks the overall functionality of your cluster and include the output in your feedback.
Testing Instructions for all apps¶
Please login using single sign-on as admin
and see if you have admin
rights granted (usually there’s an app specific admin panel available or
admin functionality like configuring users). Afterwards logout and login
again as the non-admin single-sign-on user you created earlier in the
OAS admin panel. You should not have any admin privileges now.
Testing Instructions for specific apps¶
Nextcloud¶
Please browse to Nextcloud using the link from your user dashboard app
list and try to log in using single sign-on. Use the button labeled
Login with OpenAppStack
. Please try logging in with your admin
account and configure the email settings as shown in the Usage doc.
After that please login with the user you created in the user panel.
Files & synchronization¶
Please try uploading, downloading, moving or copying files.
Calendar¶
Please test the basic functionality of the calendar, including advanced features like recurrence, custom notifications or inviting attendees.
Passwords¶
Please create and manage different passwords. In addition to that please try
Onlyoffice¶
Creating a new office document¶
From the main Nextcloud webpage, please try to create a new office
document, by clicking the round plus
button near the top of the
screen, then picking the Document
type with the blue icon (third one
from below on my screen), and enter a name for it. After that, please
try some basic editing of the document, and save it. Maybe check you can
open it again afterwards, and that it has the contents that you saved
earlier.
Collaborating on an office document¶
This part of the test requires the cooperation of another person; feel free to skip it now if that’s not convenient at this point.
First, try to share your document with a different user.
Then, try to open the shared document from a few different user accounts simultaneously, and let all participants edit the document mercilessly. There are also some collaboration features that you may want to try: on the left of the Onlyoffice screen there are buttons for chat and for text comments.
Wordpress¶
Please try to login as the new user you created earlier by pressing “Log
in” and using the Login with OpenID Connect
button.
At the moment Administrator privileges will not be available for single
sign-on users of WordPress. You can sign in with the automatically
created administrator account. The username is admin
and the
password can be found in the wordpress_admin_password
file in the
secrets
folder of your provisioning machine’s config directory.
Providing feedback¶
If you have not done so already, please create an account on
https://open.greenhost.net (or login with your existing github account)
and create a new
issue
using the Feedback
template.
Thanks a lot for your testing work! We’ll use your input to try to improve OpenAppStack.
