Description
This test case ensures that fprintd
, the D-Bus service for fingerprint reader access, is set up correctly and allows a user to authenticate using their fingerprint.
Setup
- Ensure that the
fprintd
andfprintd-pam
packages are installed. If not, install them with the command:sudo dnf install fprintd fprintd-pam
- Ensure that your system has a fingerprint reader, and it's supported in Linux.
- Ensure that you have already enrolled your fingerprints for your user. If not, enroll them using the command:
fprintd-enroll
How to test
- Try locking your session (or log out) and then authenticate using your fingerprint.
- In the terminal, test authentication using the command:
fprintd-verify
Expected Results
- After locking the session, you should see an option or prompt to use fingerprint for authentication. Swiping your enrolled finger should unlock the session.
- The command
fprintd-verify
should prompt you to swipe your finger and should recognize it after you do so, displaying a message like "Verify result: verify-match".
