h1. Some words about testing
2
3
It happens quite often that people say there is a bug, but they just misconfigured vm.
4
When you test the template system, please read [[Hints for the use of the template system]]
5
When you want to test the checkout, be sure that you configured a paymentmethod, a shipper and a shippingrate.
6
Often people think that VM calculates wrong prices, but forget to consider that the product costprice, the calculation rules and displayed prices can have different currencies.

h1. System Requirements:
9 1 Max Milbers
10
It is useful to test virtuemart installed in a subdirectory of your http directory. For exampel localhost/vm2. This is for testing if the pathing is working correct.
11
12
Use joomla 1.5 or 1.6 (latest)
13
14
As tester you should have installed your joomla with a custom prefix (not jos_) this quite important to find tables with hardcoded prefix.
15
16
Use different browsers. Virtuemart should work without glitches at least on IE8, FF, chrome, safari and opera.

The relative url /administrator/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=config means that it points to the Backend (/administrator) and that it points on the view named config.
33
34
Most backend views have a "list view" and an "edit view"
35
36
list views have always the buttons: New, Edit, Publish, Unpublish, Delete 
37
New => create new item
38
publish/unpublish => make selected items accessible (or not) from frontend
39
delete => delete selected items
40
41 1 Max Milbers
Every edit view in the backend has the buttons apply, save and close. 
42
Apply => store the data and show the same view and same item
43
Save => store the data and show the reagarding listing view
44
Cancel => just show the regarding listing view
