QA:Testcase ABRT Mailx plugin

Description

This test case tests the functionality of the Crash Catcher feature using the Mailx plugin.

How to test

1. Edit /etc/crash-catcher/crash-catcher.conf to enable and activate the Mailx plugin. This is in fact the default, but check in case. A sample config is noted below

# Enable GPG check
EnableOpenGPG = no
# GPG keys
OpenGPGPublicKeys = /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora
# blacklisted packages
BlackList = bash, bind, apache2
# enabled plugins
EnabledPlugins = SQLite3, CCpp, Mailx
# selected DB plugin
Database = SQLite3
# reporters association
CCpp = Mailx

1. Edit /etc/crash-catcher/plugins/Mailx.conf and make sure the configuration is valid. The default configuration:

# Configuration to Email reporter plugin
# Parameters
Parameters =

# Your Email
EmailFrom = user@localhost

# Email To
EmailTo = root@localhost

# Warning! enabling this may cause sending a lot of MB via email
SendBinaryData = no

should work. Only change the EmailTo address to a public address that would require forwarding through a real SMTP server if you have the 'mailx' configuration set so that such mails are correctly handled.

1. Ensure that the crash-catcher and cc-applet processes are both running
2. Kill a running process: kill -SIGSEGV (pid). It must be a process that is part of a signed Fedora package
3. Click on the panel applet to start cc-gui
4. Select the entry matching the recently crashed application, select Forward
5. At the report window, click Apply

Expected Results

1. A mail reporting the crash should be sent to the email address specified in /etc/crash-catcher/plugins/Mailx.conf. If you left this set to root@localhost, you should be able to see the mail in the file /var/spool/mail/root in a default Fedora setup.
