sakMorning QA squad15:47
davmor2sak: morning15:54
sakIf there is a bug in the testcase of an application, how do I indicate that in the bug report? There are some testcases that needs adjusting, yet the application itself seems fine. I don't want to confuse the ubunt bug-squad.15:54
sakMorning davmor215:54
flocculantsak - report the bug here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual-tests/+filebug15:55
flocculantmake sure that you mention the number of the testcase15:56
flocculantyou can get that from detailed info on testcase http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1655/info for example15:56
sakThanks flocculant. Reading it now15:57
flocculantsak: the link is just a testcase - showing where the testcase ID is :)15:57
balloonswe love to hear about testcase updates sak. Even better if you propose the fix!16:00
sakAnother thing, its it possible to actually fix a bug? I am not a developer, so not very skilled in programming which I am guessing I have to be in order to reverse engineer a bug16:00
flocculantsak: a bug in a testcase is fixable for anyone who can type :)16:01
flocculantand read a little bit ...16:01
sakflocculant, what about a bug in the actual application?16:01
flocculantno idea :p16:02
sakFor now, I guess I should concentrate on filling easy understandable bugs. Small steps16:05
flocculantsak: yep16:08
flocculantkeep an eye on the one you report - you can propose fix for it when it gets that far :)16:08
flocculantpeople here would be more than willing to help you where needed16:08
flocculantyou'll need to do https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/DevelopmentToolsSetup16:09
sakGot it flocculant16:11
flocculantthen you can look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases/Manual/Writing16:12
flocculantobviously you're not writing one - but most of the steps are the same at the beginning :)16:12
sakflocculant, I have written one in the past that successfully got merged. Though, a little review won't hurt17:19
flocculantaah - then you know what to do - only different bit is reporting it and waiting for confirmation :)17:21
