What to test?[edit]

This Fedora Test Day will focus on DeviceKit.

DeviceKit power - testing braindump

Who's available[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available to help with testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

Development - David Zeuthen, Tomas Bzatek, Richard Hughes, Matthias Clasen
Quality Assurance - Radek Biba, Ondrej Hudlicky, James Laska

Prerequisities for the test day[edit]

Fully updated Rawhide
Free space for more partitions on a HD
FAS Account - you can create an account in 3 minutes if you don't have one
Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions

Backup Your Data
We're going to do dangerous things to partition tables and partitions. Don't perform your testing on a disk with data you'd like to keep.

Optional accessories[edit]

USB flash disk / MP3 player / memory card reader with a card or two
External HD (connected via USB or FireWire)
DVD-RAM writer & media, internal or external
PCMCIA memory card reader with a card
RAID array
Encrypted partitions
Any other exotic storage device you have

How to test?[edit]

Update your machine[edit]

See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide.

Live Image[edit]

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive rawhide live image for your architecture:

i386
x86_64

Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Note
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can

# yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux

Filing Bugs[edit]

All bugs will be tracked in Bugzilla. To file a bug against DeviceKit, click here

Testing[edit]

Perform each of the following test cases that you are able to with the resources available to you.

Test Results[edit]

Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from Sample User as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt).

For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had any failures, enter the word FAIL, as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not meaningfully run the test due to limitations of your system or because of failures in more basic functionality, enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter the any additional information worth noting during your testing (work-arounds, observations etc...).

-Brain dump for DeviceKit-power:
-DeviceKit-power is a little service that takes data from the kernel, and processes it so that it's easy to consume. Known consumers are gnome-power-manager and the XFCE battery widget.
+=== Live Image ===
-DeviceKit-power gets all the data from the kernel over the dbus service DeviceKit.
+Optionally, you may download a non-destructive rawhide live image for your architecture:
+* [http://katzj.fedorapeople.org/testday/livecd-fedora-livecd-desktop-200903161319-i386.iso i386]
+* [http://katzj.fedorapeople.org/testday/livecd-fedora-livecd-desktop-200903161250-x86_64.iso x86_64]
-You should get changed events from "devkit --monitor" when you do things like remove or insert the AC adaptor. Similarly, DeviceKit-power should emit signals when this happens.
+Tips on using a live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]].
-This can be observed doing "devkit-power --monitor".
+{{admon/note|Note|Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows [http://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator liveusb-creator].  Users of F10 and below can <pre># yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux</pre>}}
-If you don't get changed signals in DeviceKit or DeviceKit-power then it's probably a kernel bug. This is known for some Sony laptops, and needs to be fixed in the kernel.
+=== Filing Bugs ===
-You should check you get the changed signals, and that the output of "devkit-power -d" changes to the correct values. The status of the battery typically goes from charging->unknown->discharging as the embedded controller takes a while to settle down and give valid readings.
+All bugs will be tracked in [[Bugzilla]].  To file a bug against DeviceKit, [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&component=DeviceKit&version=rawhide&short_desc=%5BUEFI%20Test%20Day%5D&cf_qa_whiteboard=UEFITestDay click here]
-Using gnome-power-statistics you can obserbe the values in more detail. Make sure the percentages are all 0..100 and the value look sensible (for instance, Voltage is 0..20V, not 340034V). If this is the case please open a bug and dump the output of /sys/class/power_supply/*/*. If the values in /sys are wrong, then it's not a DeviceKit-power bug, it's a kernel bug or hardware fault.
+=== Testing ===
-For the wakeups, ensure "devkit-power --wakeups" produces userspace and kernel wakeups, and that these are sensible. The first time you run this command, you'll probably get no data, but just try again in a few seconds, and you should have some values. We don't poll by default all the time, as this itself would use power.
+Perform each of the following test cases that you are able to with the resources available to you.
-For the tools, try and crash the devkit-power tool. Give it invalid input, and see how it copes. Try also crashing the daemon using d-feet to execute methods, or using dbus-send on the command line. If it crashes it's an important bug, so be sure to file it in bugzilla.

+# [[QA:Testcase_DeviceKit_gvfs]]
+# [[QA:Testcase_DeviceKit_palimpsest]]
+# [[QA:Testcase_DeviceKit_power]]
-If you need to run the daemon in verbose mode, do (as root):
+== Test Results ==
-killall devkit-power-daemon
+Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from ''Sample User'' as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt).
-/usr/libexec/devkit-power-daemon --verbose
-and then you can open another terminal and start to see the daemon output.
+For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word '''PASS'''. If you had any failures, enter the word '''FAIL''', as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not meaningfully run the test due to limitations of your system or because of failures in more basic functionality, enter the word '''N/A'''. In the comments column, you can enter the any additional information worth noting during your testing (work-arounds, observations etc...).
