Explorative Testing v1.7

As the part of the release process it was agreed that prior to release one complete day is reserved for explorative testing that should prove that we don't have any critical bugs. In addition this testing should make us aware of some minor bugs that are always present. These minor bugs should be documented on JIRA and planned for next version.

The steps that are described on this page were used for explorative testing for version 1.5. Please update this page and add additional steps for versions to come.

Explorative testing should perform same steps on both Linux and Windows machines. It's in most cases duplication of work, but it happens often that bug is related to only one platform, especially for the User interface.

Steps

Perform these steps in chronological order (grouping is just for better understanding). Add the person who tests the functionality, if any vulnerability was found and the JIRA ticket if it exists:

Task				Christian Vögele (Win 7)	Isabel Vico Peinado (Ubuntu)	Ivan Senic (Ubuntu)	Found	Ticket / Comment
Installers	Use installers to install inspectIT
	Select all components and creation of all shortcuts
	Test if shortcuts work
UI	Welcome screen	Test all internal links					After installing, the Welcome screen is showing a link, when I clicked on it I am redirected to a browser where I see a local web with the information (Isabel Vico Peinado) image2017-5-10_11-26-7.png & image2017-5-10_11-26-50.png	This is due to the Ubuntu version you have. We can not address this as it's solved with newer versions anyway.
		Test all external links					Mailto links are not working for me in Ubuntu, as it tries to open this in internal browser. Samples link is wrong.
		Prove search works
	Main menu	Click on every item in the main menu, prove all works as expected
	Repository Manager	Add repository
		Edit repository					Edit is not enabled (Christian Vögele, Isabel Vico Peinado)	INSPECTIT-2416 - Getting issue details... STATUS
		Remove repository
		Double-click on offline repository
CMR	Start CMR
UI	Repository Manager	Restart CMR
UI	Repository Manager	Shutdown CMR					After click on Stop button I got this error (I've stored the log), however the CMR is stopped (Isabel Vico Peinado) image2017-5-10_11-39-39.png I get the same. However this is not related to restarting or shut down, but more to problem of repository becoming unavailable.	INSPECTIT-2418 - Getting issue details... STATUS
CMR	Start CMR again (as service in Win)
UI	Label Management	Add new label type
		Add new label of existing type

		Prove it's saved correctly
	Start recording, limit time

UI	Stop recording manually				(without Invoker sample application)
UI	Check recorded storage
Start one more additional sample app (DVD Store with load test or Test App)
UI	Copy buffer to storage with agent filter
	Open both agents in the Data explorer
	Make sure agent tree structure saving works as agents are switched
	Platform sensors view	Check every view
		Test time-frame
		Test sampling rate					When I applied it for CPU it had no effect. Needs manual refresh after setting the value.
		Check data below graph		?				Christian Vögele: Any problems here?
	Play around with Invocation browser
	Invocation sequence Show All	Filters - all types					Seams there is a problem if I filter when menu is opened via the arrow and not icon.
		Show hide columns
		Minimize / maximize view
		Change property like refresh time, close UI and check changes are remembered on restart

			Navigation
		Tag	Display in chart	?			Tag name has changed to x-inspectit-tag. This is wrong. It must either remain inspectit or be in the baggage form inspectit_tag.	INSPECTIT-2424 - Getting issue details... STATUS
		Tag	Navigation	?

			Save to Storage (full trace must be saved)					INSPECTIT-2404 - Getting issue details... STATUS
			Locate span using double-click				Object to locate, i.e. send message was correctly show but it says 0 occurrences? But there is one. Can confirm this, some are not located. Creating a ticket but not high prio imo

Toolbar	Test all actions						We could change the support to link to our official commercial support
