What to test?
The idea is to test your common usage of desktop applications in your native language, and identify any problems or weaknesses.
The main focus areas are:
- gdm login
- display of text in browser, openoffice, and other applications
- input using ibus and its rendering
- printing
It is recommended to test from a fresh account or Live instance (without former persistence).
Test Cases
- QA:Testcase_i18n_font_desktop: desktop login (language/kbd/desktop) and rendering
- QA:Testcase_i18n_font_application: rendering of text in applications
- QA:Testcase_i18n_input_application: input and printing in applications
- QA:Testcase_i18n_browsers: browser text rendering and printing
- QA:Testcase_i18n_ibus_input: input method testing
- QA:Testcase_i18n_input_method: ibus configuration
Test Results
- QA:Testing for pa_IN: All tests are passed. But translation for im-chooser package is not up-to-date which I compared with submitted translation. (jsingh)
- QA:Testing for or_IN: All tests are passed except the known issue https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531691.
