LotusEcho: Changed where manual functional testing is placed

= Want to Join the MediaGoblin Community? =

We’re really glad that you want to join the MediaGoblin community!

There are a variety of ways to help and support MediaGoblin and to join the team. If you want to code, great, if not, even better! MediaGoblin interested contributors in many different roles: users, system administrators, technical writers, testers, evangelists, UI/UX and graphics designers, cheerleaders, and dreamers.

We observe the [https://www.djangoproject.com/conduct/ Django code of conduct]. Be welcoming, friendly, and patient!

This wiki covers a variety of ways that you can get involved with MediaGoblin as well as instructions on how to get started.

== Hang out with the MediaGoblin folk ==

MediaGoblin has a mailing list and an IRC channel where we hang out. See [http://mediagoblin.org/pages/join.html our join page] for links.

Please drop by and say “Hi!” And, if you’re looking for something to do, just ask---there’s always work to be done.

== Take Part in the Monthly Meetings ==

Each month is a [[:Category:Meeting|Meeting]]. You can take part and help decide on the future of MediaGoblin. Or just be around and see what's happening live!

=How Can you help ?=

First and foremost, for many (but not all) types of contributions you may want to set up a local instance. To learn how to do this, see the [[HackingHowto]] page. (If you're not familiar with command line level things, there are still ways you can help below!)

== File Bugs / Triage Bugs ==

Issue reports are critical for all projects. Identified bugs give developers a basis for beginning work, and providing an idea of what features and issues are most important to users and the overall usability of the software. If you identify errors, flaws, unexpected behaviors, or deficits that impede use, file a bug.

* [[File Bugs]] -- notes on filing new bugs/issues/feature requests
* [[Feature Ideas]] -- notes on possible features
* [[Triage Bugs]] -- notes on triaging
* [[BugTriageDay]] -- every other Thursday is bug triage day where anyone can help out triaging bugs

== Send Encouragement / Spread the Word ==

Sometimes, a nice word, simple encouragement, and interest in the work we’re doing is enough to inspire a tizzy of productive work. Just a bit more interest and encouragement can even make the difference between a complete feature and limited functionality; between a completed milestone and lost momentum.

Similarly, MediaGoblin, and the movement for free network services, is always in need of encouragement. Use free network services, understand the principals behind the movement, be able to articulate the benefits of free network services and the problems with psudo-free applications that don’t respect the users’ freedom.

Write a blog post, post a status update, drop by the listserv or join #mediagoblin on freenode.net and let us know. See [http://mediagoblin.org/join/ our join page] for links.

== Write Documentation / Edit Documentation ==

* [[Documentation quick start]] - How to contribute to the documentation effort.
* [[ManualStandards]] - covers the standards for writing the user manual (forthcoming.)

== Test MediaGoblin ==

Do you have access to the web? Do you like sharing your opinions? If so, we need your help to test MediaGoblin! Testers play around with the current test instance, note what operating system and browser they use (notes on multiple set-ups are also helpful) and take some notes. That's it! It's a very important task that doesn't require any special knowledge and you're done in under an hour. Ready to help?

* [[User Experience]] - user experience testing. Includes link to an instance you can try!
* [[UnitTests|Unit Tests]] - all about the unit tests
* [[Manual_Functional_Testing|Manual Functional Testing]] - a great way to get to know MediaGoblin.

== Translate MediaGoblin ==

If you know English and another language and feel comfortable translating elements of the interface or even the documentation, we’d love to have help translating the software and resources.
Translating MediaGoblin is very easy with a web interface, so there is no programming knowledge required at all.

* [[Translations]] - How to translate stuff or update the translations

== Become a User ==

Coming soon!

We’re building MediaGoblin for us and for you but really you’re one of us and I am you and we are we and MediaGoblin is the walrus.

We're planning to launch our own public instance of MediaGoblin in the near future--probably in the September/October 2011 time frame. When we do, sign up for an account, use the service and relish in the thought that this service comes with a heaping side of Freedom and you can salt and pepper it to your liking.

== Help Others ==

Have you spent time with MediaGoblin? If so, your experience and wisdom are invaluable and you’re the best person we can think of to help other users with their questions.

Hang out on the IRC channel and help answer new peoples' questions. See [http://mediagoblin.org/join/ our join page] for links.

== Run your own MediaGoblin Instance ==

Are there things about our instance you want to change? Are there things about other instances you wish were different? Want to test upcoming changes? Want to create patches to implement things you need? That’s great—you can run your own instance!

The primary documentation for this is at [http://docs.mediagoblin.org http://docs.mediagoblin.org] but here are some additional tips:

* [[Multiple media support]] - Design plan for multiple media support

== Write Code / Fix Code ==

MedaGoblin development is premised on the idea that the entire interface for the platform be completely theme-able. If you have a design or theming background, consider developing themes for MediaGoblin. New themes help test the theming system, provide attractive and appealing interfaces for prospective users. If you want to start a new theme but don’t know where to start, touch base with the development community on the list or in the IRC channel for more information.

If you are a coder and you would like to write code, the repository is hosted on gitorious. Clone or fork the repository and start poking around. Become familiar with this manual for an overview of how the software works and is used.

Manual Functional Testing

2013-09-20T19:36:37Z

LotusEcho: /* Test suite */

Manual testing is a great way to help out MediaGoblin when we're preparing for a new release. It can also help you get familiar with how MediaGoblin works and what it's all about. That is where this functional test suite comes in. Completing the tests from this suite can help us to know that our existing functionality is intact and the perspective of the new testers can help identify potential issues where ones had not previously been identified.

== Test template ==

All the test cases share the following format. If you come up with a new test case to add please use this format.

==== Test Title ====

'''Prerequisites:''' (''This is what a test needs before it runs.'') Ex - Image plug-in enabled. Activated user account. An image available for upload

'''Regression:''' (''Yes if the functionality existed in the previous release otherwise it is set to no. All test cases should eventually be regression tests.'') Ex - Yes

'''Steps:''' (''These don't need to be exactly step-by-step but rather more general'') Ex -
# Login to MediaGoblin
# Click on the Add Media button
# Select an image.
# Give it a title, description, and appropriate tags. Select a license.
# Press submit
'''Expected results:''' (''This should be more specific than the steps.'') Ex -
* A message telling you the item was submitted.
* The uploaded item has all of the information from step 4 (title, description, tags, license) and the image from step 3 displayed correctly when clicked on.

== Reporting bugs from this test suite ==
See: [[File Bugs]]

Any bugs you find with this test suite should be reported at http://issues.mediagoblin.org.

In addition to following the existing issues guidelines make sure to include the word "testsuite" as a keyword on your bug report. This also will help with the search process since you can search using the keyword "testsuite" to see if your specific issue has already been reported. If it has and you have additional information to provide, leave a comment on the ticket.

You can copy-and-paste the test steps to include with the bug report to make things easier to debug.

== Where to run this suite ==

See: [[HackingHowto]] or http://docs.mediagoblin.org

You can run these tests on a local development instance or, if one has been made available, a test instance. If a test instance has been made available we will try to include links to them here. Details on how to set up your own development MediaGoblin instance can be found at one of the two links above.

That is where this functional test suite comes in. Completing the tests from this suite can help us to know that our existing functionality is intact and the perspective of the new testers can help identify potential issues where ones had not previously been identified.
