The latest version of the proposal:
Testcase Audio Recording (change proposal) Description
This test case tests whether sound can be recorded on Fedora.
Prerequisites
- Install any sound recording application you're familiar with. If
you've never worked with any, you can try the *Gnome Sound Recorder*
(the gnome-sound-recorder package), a very simplistic and lightweight
application. Alternatively, you can try other applications, such as
*Audacity* (the audacity package).
- Make sure the input sound device is correctly connected to your
computer, so that you can expect that sound will be recorded, i.e. you have
a microphone (or any sound producing device) connected to the input of your
sound adapter.
- Run *Settings* and navigate to the *Sound* tab. Check that your
sound device is correctly recognized by the system. In case you have more
input sound devices, make sure all of these devices are listed.
This looks a bit too specific, you can say something like "Open your
system's sound settings", if you want to provide some universal advice. No
hard feelings, though.
- Select a preferred device for input and set the input level using
the slider and the indicator below to avoid over-excitation of the signal
and sound distortion.
How to test
- Start a sound recording application.
- Record a sound clip of about 10 seconds using the microphone (or
another sound producing device).
- Play back the recorded sound.
Expected Results
- The recorded sound clip is *correctly* recorded and can be played
back. Note that the quality of the recording depends on many factors, such
as the quality of the sound adapter, the microphone, the wires used, etc.
Therefore the sound quality should not be considered a test failing
criterion unless it is much worse than expected.
