Manual tests for the 'dash custom home screen' functionality
2
============================================================
7
To test the functionality, create the folder $HOME/.config/unity/, and copy the
8
three files HomeShortcutsCustomized*.json there.
10
Then for each of them repeat the following steps:
12
cd $HOME/.config/unity/
13
rm HomeShortcutsCustomized.json
14
ln -s $FILE HomeShortcutsCustomized.json # replace $FILE with the json file being considered
17
# check the visual appearance against the expected results detailed below
23
With 'HomeShortcutsCustomized-4-entries.json', the home screen of the dash
24
contains 4 icons that fill the first row. The second row is empty.
26
- "Software Center": launches the Ubuntu Software Center, the icon is the
27
Ubuntu Circle Of Friends, and if you are running with a French locale the
28
name is localized to "Logithèque".
29
- "Rock Music": opens the music lens with the genre filter set to "Rock".
30
- "Vidéos": opens the files lens with the type filter set to "videos", the icon
32
- "Transmission BitTorrent Client": launches transmission-gtk.
34
With 'HomeShortcutsCustomized-8-entries.json', the home screen of the dash
35
contains 8 icons that fill the two rows. The first row contains the exact same
36
icons as 'HomeShortcutsCustomized-4-entries.json' (see details above). The icons
37
on the second row are:
38
- "Eye Of Gnome": launches eog, if you are running with a German locale the
39
name is localized to "Auge des Zwergs".
40
- "Jockey": launches jockey-gtk.
41
- "gwibber": launches gwibber.
42
- "Giggle": this icon appears only if giggle is installed, it launches giggle.
44
With 'HomeShortcutsCustomized-broken.json', the home screen of the dash contains
45
the default icons because the file fails to be parsed.
