<H1>Scope</H1>
<H2>Identification</H2>
<P>This software test plan provides detailed tests that are used
to evaluate the stability and compliance of the Common UNIX
Printing System ("CUPS") Version 1.1.
<EMBED SRC="system-overview.shtml">
<H2>Document Overview</H2>
<P>This software test plan is organized into the following sections:
<UL>
<LI>1 - Scope</LI>
<LI>2 - References</LI>
<LI>3 - Test Procedure</LI>
<LI>4 - IPP Compliance Tests</LI>
<LI>5 - Command Tests</LI>

<H1>Test Procedure</H1>
<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>ipptest</CODE> program and run all of the tests that follow,
producing a success/fail report.
<P>The <CODE>test</CODE> target of the top-level makefile can be used to
run this script:
<UL><PRE>
make test
</PRE></UL>
<P>or you can run the test script directly:
<UL><PRE>
cd test
./run-stp-tests
</PRE></UL>
<P>A Software Test Report is stored in HTML and PDF files that
are generated using the
<A HREF="http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc">HTMLDOC</A> software.
<H1>IPP Compliance Tests</H1>
<P>This section describes the tests used to validate the IPP
standards compliance of the CUPS server.
<H2>Request Tests</H2>
<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>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.
<H2>CUPS Printer Operation Tests</H2>
<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.
<H2>Job Operation Tests</H2>
<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.
<H1>Command Tests</H1>
<P>This section describes the tests used to validate the
Berkeley and System V commands included with CUPS.
<H2>lpadmin</H2>
<P>This test verifies that printers can be added, modified, and
defaulted using the <CODE>lpadmin</CODE> command.
<H2>lpc</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpc</CODE> command can show
the current status of all print queues.
<H2>lpq</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpq</CODE> command lists
any jobs in the queue.
<H2>lpstat</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpstat</CODE> command works
with all reports using the "<CODE>-t</CODE>" option.
<H2>lp</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lp</CODE> command works
with both the default destination and a specific destination.
<H2>lpr</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpr</CODE> command works
with both the default destination and a specific destination.
<H2>lprm</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lprm</CODE> command can
properly cancel a job.
<H2>cancel</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>cancel</CODE> command can
properly cancel a job or all jobs.
<H2>lpinfo</H2>
<P>This test verifies that the <CODE>lpinfo</CODE> command
returns a list of available printer drivers and devices.
