Dolphin and openQA and other assorted bits

Part of this post is about openQA, openSUSE’s automated tool which tests a number of different scenarios, from installation to the behavior of the different desktop environments, plus testing the freshest code from KDE git. Recently, thanks to KDE team member Fabian Vogt, there has been important progress when testing KDE software.

Those who use KDE software, either in Plasma or in other desktop environments have at least heard of Dolphin, the powerful file manager part of KDE Applications (by the way, have you checked out the recent beta yet?). A couple of weeks ago, in the #opensuse-kde channel, Fabian mentioned the possibility of writing new openQA tests: although there are many tests already, the desktop ones are all but comprehensive given the many possible scenarios. After some discussion back and forth, the consensus was to test Dolphin as it’s a very commonly used in many everyday tasks.
