I’ve got a test in English in feature/5525-sandbox-web-browser. Not enough to close this ticket, though.

We have such tests (both in English and German) for the “Report an Error” launcher, so this should be pretty easy now, right?

  • QA Check set to Info Needed

kytv, would you like to extend the current test to do this? Should be really simple; whatever language you pick would need test suite images that can be symlinked to the English ones.

  • Target version changed from Sustainability_M1 to Tails_2.2
  • QA Check changed from Info Needed to Dev Needed

Sorry, missed this somehow. Yes, I can do this.

(I set it to 2.2 but that’s just to show that other things are at a higher priority. I’ll probably get this done by the 2.0 cut-off in January.)

Currently it’s not possible to test the header in Firefox due to Feature #12185 (error while running the test will be: RuntimeError: The Dogtail script raised: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 23: ordinal not in range(128), anonym tested this with a newer Dogtail release and it worked).

Nevertheless, once Dogtail’s updated this test should work then.

Please note that the step And I log in to a new session in German will be split in two seperated ones in Feature #10261 (using And I set the language to "German" in the Greeter and And I log in to a new session) .

(I’ve discussed this with spriver out-of-band. Conclusion: anyone should feel free to take this ticket if they’d like to.)
