Pass (w/note)/07-02-2008/VOC

Using PC Windows XP SP3 Firefox 2.0.0.15 & IE 7 on:

UCD NG SERVER
SmartSite@UCDavis - [sakai_2-5-x-test-003] - Sakai 2.5.x-R47401 - Server mario.

QA TEST PLAN:
SU as cthaiss.
Access Syllabus tool for UWP 104A 002 WQ 2007.
Test editing UWP 104A 002: Writing in the Professions--Business and Technical

QA RESULTS:
1) Editing the Syllabus no longer creates the "bad" HTML patterns and the Syllabus can be saved without modification.
2) If either of the HTML attribute patterns ' link="#0000ee"' or link="#993399"' are present within the source code, then the error messages: "The HTML attribute pattern ' link="#0000ee"' is not allowed" and/or "The HTML attribute pattern ' link="#993399"' is not allowed" still display as appropriate and the content cannot be saved.

QA OBSERVATIONS:
1) Manually inserting either of the "bad" HTML patterns (link="#0000ee" and/or ink="#993399") in the source code generates at least one error message, as appropriate.
2) If error messages are generated, removing the "bad" HTML patterns allow saving the content in Syllabus.

QA SUMMARY:
1) If allowing the link attributes to be incorporated in the source code is desired or expected behavior, then result is Fail.
2) Since the link attributes are not needed and apparently no longer automatically generated in the Syllabus upon Editing, then result is Pass, since the Syllabus tool saves the content properly.

Overall, Pass, with note: The Syllabus tool still rejects link style attributes if manually inserted into the source code, but no longer automatically generates them within the source code upon Editing, thus edited content can be saved properly without error message generation.

Cannot upload grade.csv files in Assignments if they have ^M in them instead of newlines.
Note: This was reported originally in SAK-1370.

(blue star) All QA testers can participate: Submitted to QA to identify work arounds for both Mac and PC platforms as well as a recommended way to edit the csv files on both platforms to minimize the risk.
-          OS Testing: Macintosh and Windows
-          Evaluate tools - example: "dos2unix"
-          Does Excel (Mac/PC) resolve this problem?
-          Does Wordpad or Notpad (PC) or TextEdit (Mac) resolve this problem?

See SAK-1782: "Cannot upload grade.csv files in assignments because of zero padded EIDs" for further information on debugging and further testing.

SAK-1097

Smartsite user reported issues with WebDAV in Resources. QA will test to repeat and verify the issue and report to Kirk.

QA testers will repeat the actions specified by the user and verify the results.

Results documented 10/1/07

Pass w/ note for MAC/07-09-2008/VOC

QA re-testing of WebDAV on MAC 10.4.11 & MAC 10.5.4 & NG server results in Pass w/ note.

Using MAC OS 10.4.11 Tiger w/ Firefox 2.0.0.15 &
using MAC OS 10.5.4 Leopard w/ Firefox 2.0.0.15 on:

UCD NG SERVER
SmartSite@UCDavis - [sakai_2-5-x-test-007] - Sakai 2.5.x-R48531 - Server mario.


QA TEST PLAN:

1) Create WebDAV access on the NG server.

2) Test WebDAV IAW SAK-1097: QA Test for Resources-WebDAV issues reported by user.


QA RESULTS:

1) Now able to create WebDAV access to site WLC 120 001 FQ 2008 on the NG server:
Verified for MAC OS 10.4.11 Tiger, Pass.
Verified for MAC OS 10.5.4 Leopard, Pass.

2) Basic functionality, including specific problem w/ MAC 10.5, verified:
Verified for MAC OS 10.4.11 Tiger, Pass.
Verified for MAC OS 10.5.4 Leopard, Pass, w/ note. Verified a bug where the drag and drop process will put up a fleeting file name and then the file name will disappear. Workaround using command line in Terminal is available.


QA COMMENTS:

Pertinent instructions available under Resources --> Upload-Download Multiple Resources appear to be satisfactory for MAC 10.4, but additional note needed for MAC 10.5.

"Setting up WebDAV for Mac (OS 10.4 - 10.5)

Note: There must be at least one object (file, folder etc.) in the course or project resource area before you begin the setup procedure. This procedure needs to be done once for each site before you can use WebDAV to transfer files to and from any one site.

   1. From the Finder, select "Go" from the menu bar and then select "Connect to Server..."
   2. In the resulting dialog box, type in the path as shown above.
   3. Press the "+" button to save this path for future use.
   4. Click "Connect"
   5. Type in your user name and password and click "OK"
   6. You will now see a window on your Macintosh screen that represents the resources in your site. You can now drag and drop files into this window and delete files by dragging them to the Trash."


QA NOTES:

Due to a bug in MAC 10.5 where the drag and drop process will put up a fleeting file name and then the file name will disappear, a workaround using command line in Terminal is necessary.

References:

1) Foundation Jira SAK-13841: Cannot Upload via WebDAV using Mac OS 10.5.3 & 10.5.4.
( http://bugs.sakaiproject.org/jira/browse/SAK-13841 )
2) Apple discussions: Topic : Error copying to mounted WebDAV volume.
( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7494871 )

Workaround:

Launch the Terminal application, which is in the Utilities folder.
command ==> description
ls ==> see a listing of all files and folders in present folder (home folder by default to start)
cd ==> move around folders within Terminal
mount ==> see all the file systems that the system has mounted.
cp ==> copy file
cp -R ==> copy folder and its contents

Examples:
command ==> sample result
mount ==> http://idisk.mac.com/sample/ on /Volumes/sample (webdav, nodev, noexec, nosuid, mounted by sample)
Note: copy "/Volumes/sample" for later use in the command line.

cp filename.txt /Volumes/sample
Note: as an example, this should copy the file "filename.txt " onto "/Volumes/sample"

cp -R Documents /Volumes/sample/
Note: as an example, this should copy "Documents" and its contents onto "/Volumes/sample"

Pass for PC XP/07-08-2008/VOC

QA re-testing of WebDAV on NG server results in Pass.


Using PC Windows XP SP3 Firefox 2.0.0.15 & IE 7 on:

UCD NG SERVER
SmartSite@UCDavis - [sakai_2-5-x-test-005] - Sakai 2.5.x-R48531 - Server mario.


QA TEST PLAN:

1) Create WebDAV access on the NG server.

2) Test WebDAV IAW SAK-1097: QA Test for Resources-WebDAV issues reported by user.


QA RESULTS:

1) Now able to create WebDAV access to site WLC 120 001 FQ 2008 on the NG server.

2) Basic functionality verified, Pass, with notes.

Note # 1: Change of local file or folder names on SmartSite does not immediately change the corresponding names on Web DAV and vice-versa.  Use care when changing names and refresh as appropriate.

Note # 2: Automatic resetting folder permissions to the standard default settings would seem to be an appropriate security feature, in that excessive permissions might result when changing file names otherwise. Use caution when making folder changes after altering permissions and verify customized permission settings after other changes are made.


QA COMMENTS:

Recommendations:
1) Be cautious about changing folder and file names, especially after permissions have been customized.
2) Verify customized permission settings after other changes are made. 
3) WebDAV appears to fully sync up with SmartSite only after signing out completely and then signing back into the WebDAV access via Network Places.

3) NG SERVER:Unable to create WebDAV access to site QAQC 100 001 WQ 2008 on the NG server.Error message reads: "The folder you entered does not appear to be valid.  Please choose another."Tried recovery actions IAW WebDAV instructions on Upload-Download Multiple Resources page under Resources.Still unable to create the WebDAV access.Fail.

QA SUMMARY:Unable to create WebDAV access to sites in the NG server, Fail.

PROGRAMMER NOTES:
From MW: DAV is not setup properly on NG server  More specifically, kerberos login will not work at the moment.  I've requested this be fixed, once it is, we'll have to restart the server to fix it.  Hopefully this will be done soon..

Verified general functionality.  Safari not tested and not recommended for use with SmartSite.  Some links on SUPPORT & TRAINING page still experience jittering if the tip of the mouse arrow is placed "just so" - as in right on the line underneath the link.  Minor error that is more of a nuisance than a major problem.
