Well, it looks like Adfinis decided to kill it. That was set up in the
recent era (Apache), so it should serve as a lesson: Adfinis
contributed a server, got Google rank thanks to our prominent links
and then moved away with our data. At least, all references to the
Adfinis link should be removed.
and migrated the tests onto the wiki [2].
No, that was the manual. Tests were meant to be on Testlink, or at
least I cannot find them in the wiki.
Manual Tests (it says outdated) are here [3]. Link to the Test Case
Management is also a 404.
This is indeed obsolete. TCM is from the pre-Apache era, it was hosted
by Oracle and, despite numerous requests done by myself and others
around 2012, Oracle refused to contribute test cases to the ASF due to
their unclear licensing and copyright. So all references to TCM are
obsolete and there is no hope to get TCM testcases back,
unfortunately: they provided very good coverage and helped building a
QA community.

Andrea.
There seem to be quite a bit of automated functional tests. around 800.
Not all get ran on all platforms but I have no way to know yet how much
that covers.
I'm looking into different options to make them a little friendlier for
new QA contributors to build and use.
Easier and used more :)
It seems that they are setup to be built by ant only after a build of
the office because the ant build uses artifacts from the solver
directory after a build.
Things like the UNO jars and idlc.
These files could easily be used from the office and sdk to be tested or
the installed office so a QA doesn't have to build the office first to
use them.
Best regards,
Carl
