Testing Notes

You can use these guidelines for testing the new blog posts dialog when there are different web and local changes to a post:

Test 1: Confirm the post shows a conflict when there are different local and remote changes

1. Create and save a draft while online in the app. (This also syncs the draft remotely.)
2. Go offline.
3. Make changes to the post and go back. This will save the changes as local draft.
4. Go to the web and make changes to the post.
5. Publish the post.
6. Back in the app, you should be on the posts list. Turn airplane mode off.
7. Pull to refresh.
8. You should see now the post has a “Conflicted” state.

Test 2: Keep the local changes

1. Follow steps 1 to 8 above to create a conflict.
2. Try to resolve the conflict so that the changing you made in the app are preserved.

Test 3: Keep the remote changes

1. Follow steps 1 to 8 above to create a conflict.
2. Try to resolve the conflict so that the changing you made on the web are preserved.

Feedback

• Did the three tests have the expected results?
• Could you tell what was wrong (did the “Conflicted” status make sense) when viewing the post in the posts list?
• Was the process to resolve the conflict (either to keep your local changes or your remote changes) intuitive?
