Project:VisualEditor testing/TestAxelBoldt

These are tests for the VisualEditor.

Regression 1: removing items from lists

• first item
• second item
• third item
• fourth item

Now use the visual editor to remove any of the items, either by selecting and backspace, or by placing the cursor at the end of an item and backspacing. Make sure that the bullet point is removed and no spurious empty lines appear.

Regression 2: removing paragraphs

Here is the first paragraph.

Here is the second paragraph.

Here is the third paragraph. The goal is to use the visual editor to completely remove the second paragraph, merging the first and the third into one. Make sure that both methods work: 1) place cursor at end of second paragraph, keep hitting backspace. 2) Select all of second paragraph without the trailing carriage return, hit backspace; remove resulting empty line with another backspace.

Regression 3: lower case links

Highlight the text "red blood cell" (without the quotes), then click on link button above and select the suggested choice for the link. Then review to make sure that the link is entered in lower case.

Regression 4: entering italics/bold

Enter some text, then switch to italic or bold (Ctrl-I/Ctrl-B) and keep typing. Make sure that entered text appears in italic/bold. Hit Ctrl-I again and keep typing, make sure that new text is not italic anymore.

Regression 5: handling of links

This is a link. Click at the end of the link and make sure that you can extend the link and the blue color will be applied to your new text. Also make sure that a link can be added by CTRL-K, followed by selecting a link target, followed by entering the link text, followed by CTRL-K

Regression 6: empty lines

filler text

filler text

Hover over the empty lines between the filler text above and make sure that they have not been turned into uneditable elements.

Regression 7: image placement

Battle of Paris 1814

Russian army enters Paris

The following two images should be placed one below the other, not next to each other, even if you start the VisualEditor.

Regression 8: scroll to the top

Starting from here, use the up-arrow to scroll all the way to the top of this article. The first line of the article ("These are tests for the VisualEditor.") should be visible.

Regression 9: Enter on first character of heading

Place the cursor at the beginning of the previous header line (before the R of Regression), then hit Enter. The cursor should then still be before the R, not after.

Regression 10: BackSpace at beginning of heading

Place the cursor at the beginning of the previous header line (before the R of Regression), then hit BackSpace. The empty line preceding the header line should be removed, but the header formatting should remain.

Regression 11: Turn line into heading

Test heading

Next line.

Try to turn the first line above ("Test heading") into a heading by selecting the entire line (so that the entire line becomes blue, not just the text "Test heading"; place cursor before "T", then Shift-CursorDown), then change the formatting from Paragraph to Heading. Make sure that the formatting of "Next line" has not changed.  

Regression 12: Wait for timeout

Start editing this page with the visual editor, then wait for about an hour, then try to save. If you get a timeout error, make sure that you can still save the article and that your editing work is not lost.

Regression 13: Edit a recently edited article

Make an edit with the visual editor to this page, save, then edit this page again. Make sure that the previous edit is reflected and that you don't get a warning about editing a previous version.

Regression 14: Starting a new header jumps to top

Go to the bottom of a long article (like here) and start a new header line by selecting "'Heading" from the drop down box above. Make sure that you are not sent to the top of the article.

Regression 15: Cut/Paste of references

This first sentence has a reference. This second sentence also has a reference.

Now try to cut out the text "also has a reference." including its following footnote (with Ctrl-X), then go to the first sentence and paste (Ctrl-V) after the word "first".

Regression 16: No spaces at the end of italic text

In the Visual Editor, enter the following text: one<space><Ctrl-I>two<space><Ctrl-I>three.

Now save and check the generated wikitext. The space after "two" should not be inside of the italic markup.

Regression 17: Cursor keys after inserting italics or bold text

Place the cursor somewhere in the middle of a line of text, switch on italics or bold (Ctrl-I or Ctrl-B), and insert some text. Then try to use the Cursor-left and Cursor-right keys to leave the inserted text.

Regression 18: Invisible position after math formula

On a new line, enter some text, followed by a math formula, then more text. Now use the cursor-left key to move back to the formula: there are two positions where the cursor becomes invisible.

Testing

This is text with a templated link: before the link Testt link after the link.
