About System Testing
Most of the system test are accomplished by using the CWMS system, for example by Using the Meetings Test and Using the System Resource Test.
When testing an upgraded system, you can keep the original system until you have finished testing the upgraded system (but because they share some parameters, such as IP addresses, you cannot power on both systems at the same time). Once you are satisfied with the results of the upgraded system tests, you can remove (forever) the original system. Be sure your upgraded system is running when removing the original system. This prevents accidental removal of the base virtual machine disk (VMDK) file that must be accessed by the upgraded system.
Some of the recommended tests to run on the system are.
-
Add, edit, activate, and deactivate users. (See Managing Users.)
-
Schedule and hold a meeting.
-
Reschedule an existing meeting.
-
Delete a series of scheduled meetings.
-
Add and open a meeting attachment from the meeting invitation.
-
Record a meeting and play back the recording.
The system can also be tested by:
-
Confirming that the primary system will failover to the HA system by removing the physical connection to the primary system and verifying that Cisco Webex is running on the HA system.
