Regression & Dependency Testing for SDHI SMS v3.2.3 on KSP 1.2.2

[sumghai]

Regression testing of basic features with mandatory dependencies

Set up a copy of the game with the following installed in GameData:

• SDHI SMS release candidate
• Animated Decouplers plugin 1.3.3 (Starwaster)
• RealChute plugin v1.4.1.2 (stupid_chris)
• Module Manager v2.7.5 (sarbian)
• MechJeb 2.6.0 (sarbian)*

*For easy and consistent tests

Assemble a basic SDHI SMS stack:

• Use stock solar panels and RCS thrusters on the Service Module
• Disable the shrouds on the LV-909 "Terrier" Liquid Engine before attaching the adapter
• First stage should be capable of reaching a 100km equatorial orbit

Test results:

• Basic SDHI SMS stack assembly
  • [x] Parts assembled with little to no difficulty
  • [x] Umbilical port retrofit on Mk1-2 Pod can be enabled in VAB/SPH editor scene
  • [x] Staging icons appear and are correct
  • [x] Action Group editor for RealChutes PartModule on docking ports are disabled
• Pad abort test
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod decouples from SM module after umbilical animation plays out in full
  • [x] LES lifts Mk1-2 Pod away from rocket cleanly to an altitude of at least 1 km
  • [x] LES can be steered using integral SolidFuel RCS thruster
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod shroud jettisoned at apex of trajectory with no issues
  • [x] Parachute lands Mk1-2 Pod safely at ~6 m/s
• In-flight abort test
  • [x] Rocket reaches altitude of at least 2 km before triggering abort
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod decouples from SM module after umbilical animation plays out in full
  • [x] LES lifts Mk1-2 Pod away from rocket cleanly
  • [x] LES can be steered using integral SolidFuel RCS thruster
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod shroud jettisoned at apex of trajectory with no issues
  • [x] Parachute lands Mk1-2 Pod safely at ~6 m/s
• Orbital testing (100 km circular orbit using MechJeb)
  • [x] Solar Panels and RCS thrusters non-operable while side fairings are intact
  • [x] LES, Mk1-2 Pod shroud and side fairings jettisoned via normal staging with no issues
  • [x] Solar Panels and RCS thrusters operational after side fairings jettison via staging
  • [x] SM adapter decouples from SM with no issues
  • [x] Fairingless LV-909 engine operates with no issues
• Atmospheric re-entry (ballistic trajectory)
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod decouples from SM module after umbilical animation plays out in full
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod, parachute-equipped docking port and heat shield survives re-entry with acceptable losses in Abalative Shielding
  • [x] Parachute lands Mk1-2 Pod safely at ~6 m/s

    Regression testing of additional features with supported add-ons

• Deadly Reentry Continued plugin v7.? (NathanKell / Starwaster)
  • Testing not possible as DREC has not been updated for KSP 1.2.2 yet
• TAC Life Support plugin v0.12.7 (TaranisElsu / danfarnsy / JPLRepo)
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod correctly shows, for a typical crew of three, eight days' worth of Food/Waste Storage and three day's worth of all other consumables/waste storage
  • [x] Addition of SM to Mk1-2 correctly shows, for a typical crew of three, eight days' worth of all consumables/waste storage
• USI Life Support plugin v0.5.13.0 (RoverDude)
  • [x] Mk1-2 Pod correctly shows, for a typical crew of three, eight days' worth of Supplies and Mulch storage
• Ship Manifest plugin v5.1.3.1 and Connected Living Spaces API plugin v1.2.? (Papa_Joe)
  • Testing not possible as CLS has not been updated for KSP 1.2.2 yet
