[sf1919]

• To install the tar.xz package for Linux, run (sudo) tar -xJf mantid-VA.B.C.tar.xz in a terminal and it will unzip the package in your current working directory.
• To install via conda:
  • Use Intel Conda and make sure conda-forge is added to channels

    mamba create -n test_mantid_6.6
    mamba activate test_mantid_6.6
    mamba install -c mantid/label/rc1 mantidworkbench --yes
    workbench # to launch

Before testing:

• Check this testing issue relates to the OS you will test on.
• If unassigned, please assign yourself as for a normal Github issue.
• Please run these tests on the release package of Mantid; not a locally built version.

Afterwards:

• Comment below with any issues you came across.
• If no major issues were found, please close this testing issue.
• Check the main issue for this OS for other unassigned smoke tests.

If you have any questions please contact the creator of this issue.

• 1D plotting:instructions

  • [x] Simple plot
  • [x] Another way to plot
  • [x] Adding curves to existing plots
  • [x] Also, test out waterfall and tiled
  • [x] Check Toolbar buttons

• 2D plotting: instructions

  • [x] Plot all spectra
  • [x] Change colour map
  • [x] Contour plot (under 3D menu)
  • [x] Check Toolbar buttons

• 3D plotting:

  • Load some data eg LOQ7041 from the ISIS sample data
  • [x] 3D surface
  • [x] 3D wire frame
  • [x] Check Toolbar buttons

  Sliceviewer

  • [x] Overly long instructions (don't spend long!) and data here. In particular try editing the data in a workspace while it is open in Sliceviewer!

1D plotting:

1. When modifying parameters of a waterfall plot, and both offsets are set to zero and the return key is pressed to confirm the new second offset, an error with the following traceback appears:

   File "lib/python3.8/site-packages/mantidqt/widgets/waterfallplotoffsetdialog/presenter.py", line 27, in <lambda>
   self.view.x_offset_spin_box.valueChanged.connect(lambda: self.update_x_offset())
   File "lib/python3.8/site-packages/mantidqt/widgets/waterfallplotoffsetdialog/presenter.py", line 42, in update_x_offset
   self.ax.update_waterfall(new_x, self.view.get_y_offset())
   File "lib/python3.8/site-packages/mantid/plots/mantidaxes.py", line 1128, in update_waterfall
   self.set_waterfall_fill(False)
   File "envs/test_mantid_6.6/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mantid/plots/mantidaxes.py", line 1209, in set_waterfall_fill
   raise RuntimeError("Cannot toggle fill on non-waterfall plot.")
   RuntimeError: Cannot toggle fill on non-waterfall plot.

2D plotting:

1. Enabling Minor Gridlines from Figure Options in the Axes tab does not seem to have an effect.

Sliceviewer:

1. Using peaks overlay permanently restricts the sliceviewer view to a portion of the window, generally to the right of the options bar. This happens only if the sliceviewer window was not resized prior to adding peaks overlay.

Issues opened for 1D plotting issue (#35257) and the sliceviewer (#35260). The 2D plotting issue is minor.
