Hi Markus,

happy to hear from you!
UI testing topic sounds for me very interessting. It will be great to know
how it works and how can I add more test.
The other issue is that I did not receive the response from Xisco in my
email. I saw it the mailing list archive after I read your message.

For Testlink I think an only Admin can  create an account for me.

[1] https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/  : Account is created and works

[2] https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/GetInvolved : already read.

[3] https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TestLink: account needed

[4] https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/UITests: read

[6] https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA: still going through the
topic under this page

Hi libre office community,

my name is Driss from Munich. I started before 3 years as Volounteer in
Open Office  community and successfully solved some bugs. Now I want to
contribute to libre office, but in Testing. I know this is the developer
mailing list, but according to the website of libre Office I have to
contact the devoloper list, if I want to help in programming automated
tests.

I have about 3 to 6 hours or even more per Week to Help with Testing. I
already have some basic knowledge on Testing: Google Test, Unity, Google
Mock, CMock, Tessy, jenkins...

I would appreciate if you can Help me to start contributing on Testing.


I see that you already have some experience with testing frameworks so I
wanted to add a few more options to Xisco's answer. LibreOffice has a large
automated testing framework based on cppunit that is run during the build.
Most of these tests are unit and integration tests but many of them require
quite some understanding of how the corresponding code works to be able to
add a test. However if you have some area that you are especially
interested we might be able to find ways that you can contribute to these
tests without deep knowledge of the corresponding code.

Additionally, we have as Xisco managed a new UI testing framework that is
written in python and is built on top of the python unittest module. One of
our volunteers has been quite active adding writer UI tests in the last few
weeks (https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/owner:zcrhonek%
2540gmail.com+status:open). If you are interested we can give you some
more background how these tests work, how to extend the test framework and
how to add additional useful tests. As an example many of the test case in
TestLink could be converted from manual tests to automated UI tests or
integration tests.

If you are still interested in a more coding related testing effort but
none of the two above look that interesting to you I still have one or two
ideas for automated testing that have not been started or not yet been
ready. These mostly are python based testing concepts for problems that can
not be tested with the existing frameworks.

Regards,
Markus
