  • Greta Bahnemann
  • Mira Basara
  • Danielle Mericle
  • Susette Newberry
  • Margaret Webster
  • Matt Conway

Goals:
Develop plan to test the following in Luna 6.0:

  • Functions in Luna 6.0, including but not limited to:
    • Creating groups
    • Sharing groups
    • Exporting presentations
    • Browsing & Searching
    • Cross-platform functionality (Mac vs. PC)
    • Migrating Presentations & Personal Collections
  • Cross Collection Searching
  • Federated Searching (webfeat)
  • Authentication
  • Java Client

Tasks:

  • Come up with list of Collections to test:  KB & GB will send to Surinder
  • Develop scenarios (based on content) for cross-collection searches. KB & GB
  • Develop scenarios (based on platform) for general Luna 6.0 testing. KB?
  • Investigate authentication issues
  • Investigate Flicker component

Known Issues:

  • Personal collections will not be supported in 6.0.
  • Flickr collections must be public not private
  • Presentations will not migrate to 6.0, but groups will. Faculty have to rebuild presentations if they want to go with 6.0.
  • Annotations will not work in 6.0.

Issues discovered through initial testing:*

  • Errors: creating and sharing groups; viewing image captions (check to see if fixed after reload of 6.0); exporting groups (varying image size, metadata transfer, etc)
  • Cross-collection searching

KVRF TESTING RESULTS:
Luna Features Comments

July 31, 2008 Knight Visual Resources: Brummund, Keefer, Webster

We signed in as faculty with the generic faculty password.  In some cases we were uncertain as to the source of the problems we encountered; were they inherent in Luna 6.0 or simply querks of the text implementation?  So to some extent we were unable to fully test Luna 6.0 even from the point of view of whether or not the features worked. 

Issue with captions---sometimes they showed up and sometimes they didn't. When images were moved to Media Groups they sometimes showed up and sometimes not; depending on the environment, we got different fields showing up in the captions.

We had some problems saving presentations which meant that we could export them. 

We tried an incremental search on What=Architecture; then Where=Italian \[by the way Italian is not really a where type of term\].
  At this point Who disappeared leaving only Where which does not work. 

We also observed that when we plan our implementation that we will need to be very clear about which types of data fields map to "what", "where", "who", and "when."  It might behoove us as a group to use Cataloging Culture Objects as a guide for determining which data fields go into these buckets.  In the current test "Where" is way too broad. 

One of our concerns is that it seems that all data fields are being funneled into "what", "where", "who", and "when" even if they are not appropriate classifications.  That means either that some fields will not be searchable (browsable) using these parameters or that we populate buckets with data elements that don't really fit.
