Wiki Acceptance Tests

When upgrading the wiki, or moving to a new operational location, use these tests to ensure that everything is functional.

In all cases, the pages should look the same as they did previously. The best way to ensure this would be to compare their appearance in the new installation with their appearance in the old (existing) installation.

Basic content tests

• Main Page

Special pages

• Special:Recentchanges
• Special:Version - check list of extensions and make sure it matches.

Search

Test "Google Search" in the sidebar:

1. Enter a search term.
2. Click Google Search.

Make sure it returns reasonable results.

Subpages in main namespace

Go to Wiki Acceptance Test/Subpages -- first line should just say "Wiki Acceptance Test", second line should just say "Subpages". If they both say "Wiki Acceptance Test/Subpages", then this isn't working right.

Extensions

Check that Special:Version lists the same set of installed extensions.

Cite

The special page Special:Cite should exist.

Flagged Revisions

TBD.

ImageMap

MathStatFunctions

Rename User

See if Special:RenameUser exists.
