Description
Test playing audio files using Decibels (the default audio player in GNOME).
Setup
- Make sure that Decibels (package decibels) is installed.
- Download or prepare some example audio files to play. Fedora supports open audio codecs, so audio files with e.g. mp3, vorbis, opus and flac codecs should be playable by default.
- Sample vorbis file: 09_to_the_suburbs.ogg
How to test
- From GNOME overview start Decibels (it's named Audio Player in the app list)
- If you have multiple audio players installed, make sure you launched the correct one by looking into Menu -> About -> Website.
- Open the desired audio file and check that it plays correctly.
- Test pausing and unpausing the playback.
- Test seeking in the audio playback, jumping to different positions in time, both forward and back.
- Test changing the playback volume, muting and unmuting.
- Test opening a different audio files all available means - e.g. using a file open dialog, by drag&dropping the file, or by launching the audio player from a file manager by opening the selected audio file.
- Perform some additional Exploratory testing.
Expected Results
- The audio files should be loaded and played correctly, if there's codec support in the system.
- All operations should behave as expected.
- If there are multiple ways to achieve an action (e.g. using a button, or menu, or double-clicking, etc), all of them should work.
- Please report all failures to the upstream tracker.
