Checkbox is a testing framework used to validate device compatibility with Ubuntu Linux. It’s the testing tool developed for the purposes of the Ubuntu Certification program.
For a given submission.json file, Checkbox information appears inside the packages array and/or the snap-packages array from the checkbox.json template. However, it's difficult to extract this information.
There should be a checkbox_version field to store the version of Checkbox being used for testing. This would help a lot for reviewing and debugging.
Enhancement Proposal
For a given submission.json file, Checkbox information appears inside the
packages
array and/or thesnap-packages
array from the checkbox.json template. However, it's difficult to extract this information.There should be a
checkbox_version
field to store the version of Checkbox being used for testing. This would help a lot for reviewing and debugging.Once this is in place, C3 should also be modified to make use of that field instead of doing some magic to extract the Checkbox version as they already do.
