Stendhal Testing

From Arianne
Jump to navigation Jump to search



Testing Stendhal is not only fun, it's also very important because it can solve problems before releases. If you find any problems or need help with testing please ask at #arianne. If you have found a bug, feel free to submit a report directly.

We have a dedicated test server on stendhalgame.org Port 32100. It is refreshed with new code and a new copy of the real database once a day. You can login with your normal account, if it is a least one day old.

Test Client

You may need a test client.

Java

Just save the stendhal-1.47.5.zip file, extract it into a new folder, then double click the stendhal-starter.jar. Please note that the test client will not update automatically.

Web

Go to the following URL in a web browser, but replace "<charname>" with your character's name: https://stendhalgame.org/testclient/stendhal.html#<charname>

Android/Web

There is an experimental client for Android mobile devices. Packages are now available from the downloads page. You will need to enable installation from third party sources.. There are also some independent builds located at https://antumdeluge.github.io/stendhal-android-builds/, but these will soon be removed.

Testing Aids

Aida

A special helper NPC, Aida, is available on the test server. You can request any item from her and she can teleport you to specific maps, any NPC or player, and she can mark empty scrolls for you.

Notes

  • When you do each stage, read your console log.
  • For quest testing: if you want to use an existing char, that has done most quests, you can reset all quests by saying cleanme! (with "!") to Diogenes. This only works for admins.
  • The test server log is here and can be useful to check if something strange happened (just scroll to the bottom for the latest entries)

Create chat log for tests

Please try to play dumb and fool the NPC by asking stupid question which may confuse him. For example say that you already have the items you are supposed to fetch although this is not true, yet. Reject the quest first time and only return later to accept it. Try to ask to start the quest again once it has finished, this kind of thing.

Please say Bye when you want to finish the conversation if the NPC is still listening.

We need full chat dialog for these quests:

  • FishermansLicenseQuiz from the fisherman in Ados huts
  • Meet Io
  • Getting a maze from Haizen chatlog needed: solving maze, chatlog there for: player logs off while doing it
