What archive revision are you testing on? (rev. 674 #)

A user should be able to delete her account!

Revision 803 is the first pass at the back-end code for account deletion. The text is still rough - I deviated from the draft wireframes slightly to make things easier from a coding perspective for now. I also still need to look into separating pseuds with commas if they're in a list.

There are so many different options involved in the deletion process that I think it could do with quite vigorous testing. Some things to check:

If a user has no works, they should be taken straight to the delete confirmation page
If a user does have works, a form should be displayed so they can choose what should happen to the works
Are the numbers of works listed on the form correct? Are all of the user's pseuds and co-authors being shown?
Do all of the options work as they're supposed to? e.g. user's pseud being retained or replaced, etc.
Does the form appear correctly if the user has no co-authored works?
Does it appear correctly if they are only a co-author, and have no fics of their own where they are the sole author?
Does it work if they have put more than one of their own pseuds on a fic? Does it treat that as a solo-authored fic which they can delete if they choose? Does it work if they have more than one of their pseuds on a fic they are co-authoring with another user, and does it recognise that it's a co-authored fic which can't be deleted?

I've done my best to test the above locally and it seems to be working for me, but it could do with checking.

When a work is deleted, currently only a notification is emailed to the user, not a copy of the work itself. Do we want the work to be emailed automatically, or should the user be asked whether they'd like to receive a copy or not?

I've created a preliminary test plan file for this, since there are so many pieces that will need to be tested. This document doesn't contain ALL of the features that will need to be tested, but has everything that Sarky listed above.

As things are added to this issue, I will try to keep them in the test plan file with 'desired results' listed to make testing this issue easier.

If anything I have listed is awkward or just wrong, let me know and I will update.

My thoughts on this are - since this will be 'removing' items from the database with this particular function, we will want extensive testing to ensure things aren't 'lost' forever. Though, we will have the archive back-ups, but depending on how often those are created, works and data may still be lost.

Yay both of you for being so, so organised!

Yeah, this is complicated - I've got someone lined up to test this specifically so we can work through all the scenarios and they will be doing this today if we can have it applied to the TestArchive.

Highlander, you're awesome! cheers on The test plan looks good to me - I think my only comment would be that the tester /might/ need to break Case 8 down a bit further, as there are 6 different form options to be tested there, but you're in a better position to judge that than me. :D

And I entirely agree about the need for extensive testing - that's great that you have someone lined up to work through it, Samvara. Yay for awesome testers! loves

OK, this is a thing of great beauty, almost all of it is perfect which for a first run is impressive!

Delete account page has no "Cancel" button on it.
Radio buttons do not default to option 1.

Otherwise = Awesome!

Yay yay yay! \0 \0/ 0// Revision 824 should add the cancel button and make the radio buttons default to option 1. :D

The front end for the two views still needs to be done in its entirety - apologies to Lim for the non-existent html! They're in the users directory: _delete_preview.html.erb and delete_confirmation.html.erb.

Revision 825 should format the lists of pseuds and coauthors more nicely, using commas to separate them.

I've just realised that drafts are being counted towards a user's works on the delete preview page. How should drafts be treated - the same way as a posted work, or differently?

Revision 826 has some changes so that drafts are not included in the numbers of works listed on the delete preview form; it is now assumed that they are to be deleted and this should happen automatically when the account is deleted.

Some things I would appreciate the lovely testers checking on here:

If a user only has drafts and no posted works, they should be taken straight to the delete confirmation page. (They would previously have been taken to the form.)
If a user has posted works and unposted drafts, they should be taken to the form. The number of coauthored works and the number of 'sole-authored' works listed should /not/ include any drafts.
If the cancel button is pressed, the user should be returned to their profile, and the drafts should still be listed in the sidebar of their dashboard.
If the user presses the submit button, the form should submit without errors and the delete confirmation page should be shown.

Hi,

I tested the above scenarios, and they were all successful. See attached doc for nitty-gritty details :)
