Testcases for Ares 0.2

[Nighthawk]

Hello SoundMachine. Here's a quick rundown of what the statuses on Launchpad's bugtracker mean:

On the left hand side is the priority of a bug. Should be obvious what that means - important things are high, lessly-important things are lower.

On the right hand side is the status of a reported bug. There are a few of these:

• New - this bug has only just been reported or has not been officially investigated yet.
  
• Opinion - the existence of this bug is currently under debate.
  
• Confirmed - it is officially acknowledged that this is a bug, but no action has yet been taken.
  
• In Progress - the developers are currently working (or will in the near future) to fix this bug.
  
• Fix Committed - a possible fix for this bug has currently been committed to Ares.
  
• Fix Released - this bug is confirmed by testing as being fixed.
  
• Incomplete - more information is needed before this can be investigated properly.
  
• Invalid - this is not a bug in Ares.
  
• Expired - this bug has not seen activity from either the reporter or the developers for so long that it has expired from the tracker.
  
• Won't Fix - either it's not possible to fix this bug, or this is used as a catch-all status for "removed" tracker items.

Any current bugs that have been fixed and need verified should be under the "Fix Committed" heading. However, we also need to investigate the general stability of Ares - how various features interact, whether the game throws a tantrum if you use a certain combination of stuff, and so on. If you encounter such issues, check to see if they've been reported, and if they haven't, report them yourself. At the moment, there aren't many untested specific bugs left - stability testing is the major thing that needs dealt with.

Lastly, if you can confirm to us that things are working as they should be, then also let us know about that too. This doesn't go on the bugtracker, and instead goes in a LaunchPad question topic here.

Later Edit: This is more for existing testers rather than you, SoundMachine, but if you've been using our old tracker, this could apply to you too.
For any major fans of the original tracker, the new statuses are slightly different to the old ones, but here's how they relate:

• Old Mantis Status = New LaunchPad Status
  
• New = New.
  
• Feedback = Incomplete or Opinion depending on the situation.
  
• Acknowledged = Confirmed.
  
• Confirmed = Confirmed or In Progress depending on development.
  
• Assigned = In Progress.
  
• Resolved = Fix Committed.
  
• Closed = Fix Released or Invalid or Expired or Won't Fix depending on the situation.
