Luna 6.0 Test team and Plan
Known Luna 6.0 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
