This test case is obsolete
This has been merged into QA:Testcase Anaconda User Interface VNC.


Description

This test verifies the vnc option vncpassword work as expected. See Anaconda/Options for more information.

Setup

  • Requires two systems able to communicate over the network, one to test the installation and a second to initiate the VNC client session
  • Install a VNC client application. The package tigervnc or vinagre can be used. This test will use 
    yum install /usr/bin/vinagre

How to test

  1. Boot the installer with the following command-line options (added as a kernel option in boot selection screen). Replace <password> with a password of your choosing. 
    vnc vncpassword=<password>
  2. Watch the text messages printed out, you should see something like this: 
    Running anaconda 15.31, the Fedora system installer - please wait.             
09:59:01 Starting VNC...
09:59:02 The VNC server is now running.
09:59:02 

You chose to execute vnc with a password.

09:59:02 Please manually connect your vnc client to 192.168.1.17:1 to begin the install.
09:59:02 Starting graphical installation.
  3. Using a VNC client, connect to the specified address. When prompted, enter the password provided in the previous step. 
    vinagre 192.168.1.17:1
  4. Using the VNC client session, complete the installation as desired

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda starts Xvnc properly
  2. User can connect with VNC client using a valid password
  3. VNC works normally during installation (mouse, keyboard)
  4. Anaconda completes successfully
  5. The installed system boots into runlevel 3 (no graphical session)
