<H1 CLASS="title">CUPS Software Test Plan</H1>
<P>This software test plan provides detailed tests that are used
to evaluate the stability and compliance of CUPS.</P>
<H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="PROCEDURE">Test Procedure</A></H2>
<P>The test software and data files are located in the
<VAR>test</VAR> subdirectory of the source distribution. A script
is provided to compile the <CODE>ipptool</CODE> program and run
all of the tests that follow, producing a success/fail
report.</P>
<P>The <CODE>test</CODE> target of the top-level makefile can be
used to run this script:</P>
<PRE CLASS="command">
make test
</PRE>
<P>or you can run the test script directly:</P>
<PRE CLASS="command">
cd test
./run-stp-tests
</PRE>
<P>A Software Test Report is stored in a HTML file in the
<VAR>test</VAR> subdirectory at the conclusion of the test.</P>
<H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="IPP">IPP Compliance Tests</A></H2>
<P>This section describes the tests used to validate the IPP
standards compliance of the CUPS server.</P>
<H3>Request Tests</H3>
<P>These tests verify that the CUPS scheduler only accepts valid
IPP requests that start with the <CODE>attributes-charset</CODE>
and <CODE>attributes-natural-language</CODE> attributes and also
contain a <CODE>printer-uri</CODE> or <CODE>job-uri</CODE>
attribute.</P>
<P>It also verifies that the CUPS scheduler always responds with
<CODE>attributes-charset</CODE> and
<CODE>attributes-natural-language</CODE> attributes, using
default values if they are not provided by the client.</P>
<H3>CUPS Printer Operation Tests</H3>
<P>These tests verify that the CUPS printer operations are
supported and function properly. Two printers called
<CODE>Test1</CODE> and <CODE>Test2</CODE> are created, one as a
PostScript printer and one as a raster printer.</P>
<H3>Job Operation Tests</H3>
<P>These test verify that the CUPS scheduler accepts print jobs
for all supported file formats and that the
<CODE>cancel-job</CODE>, <CODE>hold-job</CODE>, and
<CODE>resume-job</CODE> operations work.</P>
<H3>Subscription Operation Tests</H3>
<P>These test verify that the CUPS scheduler accepts
subscriptions with print jobs and that all subscription
operations work as required by the IPP notification and mailto
specifications.</P>
<H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="COMMAND">Command Tests</A></H2>
<P>This section describes the tests used to validate the Berkeley
and System V commands included with CUPS.</P>
<H3>lpadmin</H3>
<P>This test verifies that printers can be added, modified, and
defaulted using the <CODE>lpadmin</CODE> command.</P>
<H3>lpc</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpc</CODE> command can show
the current status of all print queues.</P>
<H3>lpq</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpq</CODE> command lists
any jobs in the queue.</P>
<H3>lpstat</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpstat</CODE> command works
with all reports using the "<CODE>-t</CODE>" option.</P>
<H3>lp</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lp</CODE> command works with
both the default destination and a specific destination.</P>
<H3>lpr</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpr</CODE> command works
with both the default destination and a specific destination.</P>
<H3>lprm</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lprm</CODE> command can
properly cancel a job.</P>
<H3>cancel</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>cancel</CODE> command can
properly cancel a job or all jobs.</P>
<H3>lpinfo</H3>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpinfo</CODE> command
returns a list of available printer drivers and devices.</P>
