Testing Scenarios 1.8

This page describes changes that happened between 1.7.x and 1.8 in the desktop sync client. It's here to help to plan testing and write testplans.

Most stuff should be verified over all supported platforms by default.

Uploads from Client to server

Quite some details in the way how we upload files changed, ie. the chunk size changes and uploads of chunks happen in parallel.

Tests should include:

• Uploads of files with size <5MiB (smaller than new chunk size), exact 5MiB, between 5 and 10MiB, exact 10MiB, between 10 and20 MiB, exact 20MiB and larger than 20MiB
• Interrupt of big file upload

Sharing via File Manager

From 1.8 on there is a new context menu (right click) in the file managers for files and directories . If it is clicked while the sync client is running, a new Share Dialog opens that allows to share a file from desktop.

Tests should include:

• Share files using the different kinds of sharing, check on the server, if the file is really shared.
• Check with Windows Explorer, MacOSX Finder and Nautilus on Linux.

Selective Sync on Account Setup

From 1.8 on, the default is not longer to sync all files from the ownCloud server, but...

Tests should include:

• Check if correct selective syncing is set up.
