We will add cases of things which have been +known to fail in the past to this file as we discover them. Tests should be +carried out with Additions installed, and both with and without 3D enabled in +the machine settings. + + * Test XFree86 guests (CentOS 3), early X.Org (CentOS 5) and recent + (CentOS 6 and 7, current Ubuntu/Fedora). Test Solaris guests (10 and 11?). + * Dynamic resizing should work, on CentOS 6 and later Linux guests it should + work without VBoxClient running. + * Disabling and enabling virtual screens (VBoxManage in 4.3). + * Dynamic resizing with one of more virtual screens disabled. + * Test switching to virtual terminals and back from windowed, full screen and + seamless modes (seamless currently only works properly with VBoxClient + running). + * Test switching directly between normal, full-screen, seamless and scaled + modes. + * Test re-ordering the virtual screen using the native guest operating system + tools and make sure that mouse integration still works as expected. + * Test disabling and re-enabling guest screens with the native system tools. + * Try disabling and re-enabling mouse integration and check that capturing + works with multiple guest screens. + * Shutting down and re-starting a virtual machine should restore the last size + for all monitors (note: currently only after log-in). Full shut-down, not + a reboot. + * Test power management by disabling guest screens ("xrandr --output VGA-n + --off") and re-enabling them ("xrandr --output VGA-n --preferred --pos XxY") + where X and Y are the position of the screen before disabling it. + * Test sending video mode hints with screen position information via + VBoxManage. The screen position is a hint only. The approximate position + should be preserved after a shut down and re-start of the guest. + * Test re-starting the X server after resizing all guest windows. The server + should not crash. |
