Release test

The release test consists of the following (TODO: Still needs to be fleshed out some more)

The objects chosen for the first step of the release test are:

BR

The release test consists of

  1. Success test
    • Test that the system responds as expected when presented with valid data.
  2. Failure tests
    • Test of correct behaviour on failures, ensuring that they are "failing gracefully".

Each table below describes the steps needed to complete the release test. Subpages describe the details of what you should do in the step.

On each step, do what the subpage describes. Then mark the status column with "OK" or "Fail" depending on whether the step was succesful or not.

The notes fields can be used for comments about the test.

  1. Human inspection of preingest FoxML output by comparing the output objects with objects prepared beforehand (available "here").
  2. Ingest into Fedora (seeing if Fedora accepts the FoxML objects).
  3. Inspection of the objects in Fedora (by use of admin application)
