Test Workflows for v1-5
Under development
- Overview
- Versions Tested
- Guide to Using Supplied Selenium-IDE test scripts
- Test Workflows (Automated and Manual)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview
The following provides a list of considerations and test workflows (both automated and manual) for and during testing of the local configuration and functionality of FileSender prior to the 1.5 release. See Test Workflows for links to tests conducted for other releases.
These tests are based primarily on usage by Wendy Mason of the AARNet installation of FileSender. Contributions to these workflows also provided by Xander Jansen based on the SURFnet installation of FileSender.
Please note that these test workflows may not represent an exhaustive list of all possible user actions. Also, some aspects of these workflows may become no longer applicable as FileSender develops. If you find anything incorrect, please advise, or correct it yourself if you have access.

Quick Guide to Using FileSender's (DRAFT!) Selenium-IDE test scripts
Prior to running each script, open it in a text editor and follow the "make the following substitutions prior to running this test" instructions contained in the top of the script, to adjust it to your test environment. Then using the latest version of Firefox (Selenium IDE is a Firefox plugin only):
- Go to http://seleniumhq.org/download/ and download and install the latest Selenium IDE browser plugin. You should then be able to see the plugin listed in Tools > Add-ons > Extensions.
- Open Selenium IDE from Tools > Selenium IDE.
- In the top left-hand corner, slide the bar across from "Fast" to "Slow", to reduce the rate at which the test will run, so that you can watch each step as it is executed (also some script timings may not work yet at the faster rate).
- In the top right-hand corner, click on the red circle icon to stop recording, which is on by default.
- In Options > Options > General tab, uncheck "Start recording immediately on open" and under "Default timeout value of recorded command in milliseconds [...]" change the value to 60000.
- In a new browser tab, logon to https://filesender.surfnet.nl/proto/index.php, and navigate to the applicable page (and popup in the case of Adding recipients) for the script you want to run
- In Selenium IDE, select the modified test script you want to run from File > Open.
- Click on the "Play current test case" button (second play button).
- Enjoy the show! Steps become highlighted in green as they pass or red if they fail. Failure of a major step will stop the script. Any errors should appear in red in the pane at the bottom of the Selenium-IDE window. (If the script fails immediately, try clicking on the FileSender tab then try again).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: the following is being updated from 1.1 test workflows, in particular the script steps
Steps being automated are contained in yellow boxes, and are being updated here from comments within the scripts as they are finished
Updated script descriptions are marked "UPDATED"
