Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager
It appears that the Networking section for Laptop Testing, http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Plans/LaptopTesting , is outdated and needs to be rewritten by someone who knows what needs to be tested and how. The current test would fail every time as written. There is no longer a computer icon, so that may be an indication of how old this version was testing for. This is the section that will fail: Verify Release of Device Case ID: hcn-002 In the terminal, run sudo ifdown [interface] where [interface] is the interface name, above. * In the terminal, run ifconfig and verify that only the loopback device ("lo") is listed.* There is always at least four devices listed. Apparently a knowledgeable person can tell that the device is up or down but that is not what this question asks for. Someone tell me what we want and I will be glad to rewrite it. If we are looking for a device that is up or down, we need to write that in plain english so anyone can do this. I tried to address this as a question but was recommended that I file a bug. 1)lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch) Release: 11.04 2)apt-cache policy pkgname N: Unable to locate package pkgname Don't know where in the software center this information is. 3) I expected to test this application and give good, useful, feedback. 4) I could not perform a useful test because of outdated testing procedures. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731737 Title: Network-Manager Laptop Test is outdated and useless as is. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
