Description

This test case tests the functionality of ABRT Knowledgebase

Setup

At the moment there are knowledgebase entries for the following software:

  • NVIDIA graphics driver
  • Adobe Flash Player
  • ATI Catalyst graphics driver
  • VLC Media Player
  • Google Chrome Web Browser
  • Chromium Web Browser
  • Skype
  • locally built software (in /home/ or /usr/local/)
  • Broadcom-STA Driver
  • VirtualBox

You need to operate on problems with these in order to test the feature.

How to test

  1. Make some of the software mentioned above crash, e.g.
    killall -11 vlc
    killall -11 chrome
  2. Try standard reporting process

Expected Results

  1. A solution is shown and the reporting does not continue.
    This problem has already been reported.
    Your problem seems to be caused by VLC Media Player
    
    VLC media player includes codecs protected by patetnts.
    Fedora does not ship such pieces of software. You are welcome to use
    open formats in combination with Totem, Rhytmbox or amaroK media players.

    This problem has already been reported.
    Your problem seems to be caused by Google Chrome Web Browser
    
    Fedora does not include Google Chrome because it is a proprietary product
    and bundles other proprietary software such as Adobe Flash plugin.
