h1. Some words about testing 

 It happens quite often that people say there is a bug, but they just misconfigured vm. 
 When you test the template system, please read [[Hints for the use of the template system]] 
 When you want to test the checkout, be sure that you configured a paymentmethod, a shipper and a shippingrate. 
 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: 

 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. 

 Use joomla 1.5 or 1.6 (latest) 

 As tester you should have installed your joomla with a custom prefix (not jos_) this quite important to find tables with hardcoded prefix. 

 Use different browsers. Virtuemart should work without glitches at least on IE8, FF, chrome, safari and opera. 

 h1. Installer 

 Test installer with and without sampel data. 
 Test the All-in-one Modules and Plugin installer. 

 h1. Views 

 Test the frontend with java script enabled and disabled.  
 Test what happens, when you change the post data. For exampel when you remove it, or enter a product which is not published. 
 Test the frontend as anonymous and registered shopper. 


 h1. Backend Testing 

 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. 

 Most backend views have a "list view" and an "edit view" 

 list views have always the buttons: New, Edit, Publish, Unpublish, Delete  
 New => create new item 
 publish/unpublish => make selected items accessible (or not) from frontend 
 delete => delete selected items 

 Every edit view in the backend has the buttons apply, save and close.  
 Apply => store the data and show the same view and same item 
 Save => store the data and show the reagarding listing view 
 Cancel => just show the regarding listing view
