Installation Test Plan

Test ID	User	Description	How to Test	Expected Results	Results
		Assign ext4 fs with mount point	Prepare system with ext4 filesystem(s). Boot the installer. Select the ext4 filesystem as a mount point except of /boot, preferably some 'data' filesystem. Ensure installation is finished successfully.	ext4 filesystems are recognized. Mount point can be assigned to ext4 filesystem. Installation completes successfully. System starts properly with all filesystems mounted.
		Create new ext4 partition (non-root fs)	Boot the installer Advance to the (ddruid) partitioning screen Create a new (or use existing) partition Assign a non-rootfs mount point to the partition, choosing ext4 fs type Complete installation Reboot into post-install system	installation completes successfully post-installation system boots ext4 filesystem is correctly identified and mounted
		Create new ext4 partition (root fs)	Boot the installer Advance to the (ddruid) partitioning screen Create a new (or use existing) ext3 partition for /boot Create a new (or use existing) partition Assign a rootfs mount point to the partition, choosing ext4 fs type Complete installation Reboot into post-install system	installation completes successfully post-installation system boots ext4 filesystem is correctly identified and mounted
		Identify ext4 filesystems	Prepare system with ext4 filesystem(s). Boot the installer. Use "Create custom layout" for partitioning and keep existing partitions. Ensure ext4 filesystems are recognized and included in list of filesystems.	Anaconda starts successfully. ext4 filesystems are detected and listed in partition layout of Disk druid screen. Disk druid allows basic manipulation with ext4 filesystems.
		ext4 fs on LVM LV	Boot the installer Advance to the (ddruid) partitioning screen Create a new (or use existing) LVM PVs Create an LVM LV using the PVs Assign a non-/boot mount point to the LVM LV, choosing ext4 fs type Complete installation Reboot into post-install system	installation completes successfully post-installation system boots ext4 filesystem is correctly identified and mounted using LVM LV device.
		ext4 native (non-LVM)	Boot the installer Advance to the (ddruid) partitioning screen Create a new non-LVM ext4 partition and assign to / mount point complete installation	installation completes successfully post-installation system boots ext4 filesystem is correctly identified and mounted
		Mount and recover ext4 partitions from rescue mode	Boot the installer Advance to the (ddruid) partitioning screen Create a new (or use existing) ext4 partition and assign a non-/boot mount point complete installation reboot into post-install system using rescue mode	installation completes successfully installation enters rescue mode rescue mode detects and mounts ext4 partition successfully user can interact with ext4 filesystem (read, write & edit files)
