2011-12-05 21:12:06 Daniel Manrique description I plugged an USB hard drive. All four partitions on it were mounted without problem. Yet, the test was marked as "No". I think everything is working fine, so I manually changed it to "Yes". But it's a bit unclear what is tested. Some people may keep the "No" answer, even if the partitions are mounted without any problem. I plugged an USB hard drive. All four partitions on it were mounted without problem. Yet, the test was marked as "No". I think everything is working fine, so I manually changed it to "Yes". But it's a bit unclear what is tested. Some people may keep the "No" answer, even if the partitions are mounted without any problem. [Impact] USB storage devices with multiple partitions confuse checkbox's usb_test script, which will falsely report the device is not working, thus hurting the system's Ubuntu Friendly score unfairly. [Development fix] The usb_test script is updated in revision 1119 to account for USB devices with logical partitions. [Stable fix] This is fixed in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~checkbox-dev/checkbox/trunk/revision/1119. Also, the linked branch (https://code.launchpad.net/~roadmr/ubuntu/oneiric/checkbox/0.12.9) contains this and other fixes and merges cleanly against Ubuntu checkbox 0.12.8. [Test case] - Prepare a USB stick with at least one logical partition (to really exercise the script, create at least one primary and one extended partition, with the latter containing at least two logical partitions). Format all the partitions and make sure they're all writable by the current user. - Run /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/usb_test -t Expected result: A test report that ends with "Successfully completed 1 USB file transfer test iterations". Actual result: Trace as reported in comment #5, ending in "IndexError: list index out of range". [Regression potential] This is just adding a safety check for a possible empty array, I don't think this could fail in any situation where it previously worked fine.
