Zeb release checklist

[zebdelk]

Manual UI checks

Set up the test environment

• [x] Deploy the latest candidate to the SciApps demo site
• [ ] Reset the indices and reload the data.

General checks

• [ ] Landing page functionality
  • [x] Correct Version # (visible in the footer of the page)
  • [x] "About Us" page lists expected number of collections (414) and granules (51). These numbers are reflective of the test data from Ansible (clean CU deployment with empty ElasticSearch); otherwise, they will likely be different values.
  • [x] Links in the header menu and footer work
• [ ] Verify CSS changes work across browsers
  • [ ] IE 11
  • [ ] on AdminLan
  • [x] on Windows
  • note for css on IE (VirtualBox): You may have to manually clear the IE cache.
  • [ ] Firefox latest
  • [x] on Mac
  • [ ] on AdminLan
  • [ ] Chrome Latest
  • [x] on Mac
  • [ ] on AdminLan
  • [x] Safari
  • [ ] Confirm supported browser docs: Supported Browsers
• [x] Use chrome devtools mobile view to check how it looks on mobile devices and custom dimensions.
  • rotate to landscape views
• [ ] General page responsiveness (adjust window size between large and small)
  • [x] Does landing page adjust gracefully?
  • [x] Do header and footer elements maintain a reasonable placement in the page layout?
  • [x] If all keyword categories are expanded on search page, do they stay visible (push footer down without clipping)?
  • [x] Do result cards respond to page adjustments (proper flex behaviors)?
  • [x] Does an open collection detail view realign elements cleanly on each tab?

Search Verification

Keywords

• [x] From landing page, click 'Weather' in Search By Topic. Results count is 25. Confirm clicking Show More Results button loads 20 additional results, after 1 click button disappears and section header states 'Search Results (showing 25 of 25)'
• [x] All cards show thumbnail images or black overlay in event image is slow to load/not available (external service; either of these are okay)
• [x] Keywords Data Theme shows:
  • Agriculture (1)
  • Atmosphere (15)
  • Biological Classification (1)
  • Biosphere (1)
  • Climate Indicators (1)
  • Cryosphere (1)
  • Oceans (23)
  • Spectral/Engineering (1)
• [x] Confirm keyword labels are rendered and functioning accurately:
  • Drill down through Data Theme, verifying labels match 'Atmosphere' > 'Atmospheric Winds' > 'Surface Winds' > 'U/V Wind Components'.
  • Select keyword above. Tag above collection cards reads 'U/V Wind Components'.
  • Open collection card. Verify tag appears as 'U/V Wind Components' in 'Themes' section.
  • Back to Keywords, confirm 'Anemometers' and 'MOCNESS Plankton Net' under 'Instruments' category have correct capitalization.
  • Select both in facet menu. Confirm string format is consistent in tags.
  • Open collection card and confirm format again under 'Instruments' category.
  • Look for last search request in browser dev tools. Confirm request payload is: {"queries":[{"type":"queryText","value":"weather"}],"filters":[{"type":"facet","name":"science","values":["Atmosphere > Atmospheric Winds > Surface Winds > U/V Wind Components"]},{"type":"facet","name":"instruments","values":["ANEMOMETERS","MOCNESS > MOCNESS Plankton Net"]}],"facets":true,"page":{"max":20,"offset":0}}

Time Filter (Temporal)

• [x] Overlapping Allowed
  • Start with a fresh search by searching 'Tutuila' on Landing Page -- 4 results returned
  • In time filter, set start to any day in 2010 and apply -- now 1 result, 'Tutuila, American Samoa [...]' (AKA Return data covering anytime after {day}, 2010)
  • Clear time filter (X button) and initiate new search again -- back to 4 results
  • Apply new time filter by selecting end to any day in 1990 and apply -- 3 result, 'Tutuila, American Samoa [...]' (AKA Return data covering anytime before {day}, 1990)
• [ ] Overlapping Restricted
  • TBD

Data we should add to the test set:

• [ ] No time range (in normal fields)
• [ ] no spatial bounding or thumbnail

Description Tab

• [x] Thumbnail image (most everything has these)
• [x] No thumbnail image but spatial bounding available
  • search Nikolski, the 2nd result should have a map only, in both collection result card and description tab
• [ ] Results with no spatial bounding & no thumbnail show world map

Matching Files (Granule View)

• [x] Map rendering & data types
  • Search ghrsst viirs ACSPO. 2nd result should be "GHRSST GDS2 Level 2P Global Skin Sea Surface Temperature from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi NPP satellite created by the NOAA Advanced Clear-Sky Processor for Ocean (ACSPO) (GDS version 2)"
  • Confirm Citation Info is present and identifier value is 'gov.noaa.nodc:GHRSST-VIIRS_NPP-OSPO-L2P'.
  • On Matching Files/granule view page, multiple granules with a variety of bounding boxes appear. Confirm in search request total count in 29.
  • Access Protocols show Download, FTP, OPeNDAP, THREDDS and Web
  • Show all granules. Look for granule with fileIdentifier of 'GHRSST-VIIRS_NPP-OSPO-L2P-v2.4.20151225190000-OSPO-L2P_GHRSST-SSTskin-VIIRS_NPP-ACSPO_V2.40-v02.0-fv01.0.nc' (helps to find on page '190' as this will be the only match). Confirm in search request response that parentIdentifier value is 'doi:10.7289/V5PR7SX5'.
• [ ] Filtering granules -- time
  • NOTE: this time filter will fail because we're no longer searching the flattened granules, and unconstrained end dates are a known issue with how we filter time
  • Search co-ops
  • Open collection and go to 'Matching Files' tab. Search request shows 22 total granules matching.
  • Apply time filter to search, filtering between 2016-12-01 and 2016-12-31.

• [ ] Filtering granules -- space
  • Follow first two steps from above.
  • Apply spatial filter to search with a bounding box enclosed around Hawaii.
  • Open collection and go to 'Matching Files' tab again. Search request now shows TBD total granules matching.

Access Tab

• [ ] Confirm 3 rows in table of this tab -- Information, Download Data, and Distribution Formats

Error conditions

Text Search Errors

• [x] entering with a blank text search field will result in an error message
• [x] starting a search with an asterisk '*' or question mark '?' will result in a corresponding error message
• [ ] using an escape character \ in the search field will result in a parsing error

Spatial Search Errors

• [x] entering invalid bounding box coordinates, for example, West: -191, South: 90, East: 90, North: 90, will result in a relevant error message upon hitting the "Apply" button
• [x] leaving coordinates blank, for example, West: -180, South: empty, East: empty, North: empty, will result in a relevant error message upon hitting the "Apply" button
• [x] entering a word 'foo' instead of a value

Accessibility and 508 compliance

• [ ] Run Chrome plugin WAVE (Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool) and check for errors on:

  • landing page
  • main site (search header, left filter menu, results view, details views, about page, help page)
  • 508 search page (to be removed)
  • 508 results page (to be removed)

• [ ] Run screen reader software in a Windows VM environment

  • TBD

Code verification

• [ ] update libraries to the latest, if possible
• [ ] Run retire -p on client code Retire JS
• [x] OWASP - Run /gradlew dependencyCheckAnalyze --info
• [ ] Ensure that included images are compressed in the git repo

[zebdelk]

Issues found:

• [x] broke neat earth bg image on landing page (almost certainly a router related change issue)
• [x] exclude global checkbox is not keyboard accessible
• [ ] fonts not loading correctly (Elliot is investigating)
• [x] page title: "About" should be "About NOAA OneStop"
• [x] page title: "Help" should be "Help for NOAA OneStop"
• [ ] link preview metadata (tested in slack) appears to be gone
• [ ] css for link focus (granules) is really hard to see in safari (we had only looked at it in chrome, which shows up better) (still probably a low priority thing to fix)
• [ ] hover on left logo/home link in safari looks dumb - transition on svg is different than text
• [x] IE collapse filters arrow missing?
• [x] granule images (thumbnail/map) could use height/width attributes for no-css check
• [x] granule images (thumbnail/map) need alt text ="" or description? (currently is Result Image)
• [x] WAVE reports broken ids referenced in aria-labelledby in granule links - are these ids valid?

[zebdelk]

The wave report issue with aria-labelledby is a flaw in the tool: it can't interpret a value that is a list of element ids (which is valid use of this property)
