What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install airVNC on a Windows platform.
2. Download an updated version of the application.
3. Install the updated application.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
The installer should overwrite the existing airVNC folder under c:\Program
Files\airVNC.  

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The installer gives an error saying that the install folder already exists
and the installer fails.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open airVNC.
2. Click to add a host.
3. Type in the IP address, VNC port and password of the Mac OS X system you
wish to connect to.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The session does not connect.

When installing the application from the .air file, the following items
need to be resolved:

Publisher: The airVNC Team
System Access: I'm not sure what this means or how it can be corrected.
Version: When upgrading, the application always is shown as version 1, even
though we are not at version 1 yet.  We should use the release date and the
word Alpha or Beta instead.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have a server using the non-standard VNC port (like a Xen server, with 
multiple VNC server 
ports)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1. I expect to be able to put the port in the server.xml file.  Either in the 
Host field with a 
optional colon delimeter, or as a optional new field called Port, or support 
both.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1. "v1" in the about bar.  Latest source version as of April 8, 2009
2. Macintosh OS-X 10.5.6

Please provide any additional information below.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Use icons as buttons for GUI.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
User clicks on an icon.  Depending on the function associated with the
icon, the application launches the related function.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
To make the application look more professional and refined.

ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS:
Please see attached files for icons to be used and a mockup file
(icons.png) to show what the GUI should look like with the icons.  Note:
The icons are used from the Tango project.  It would be very nice to
include a credit in the code to the Tango project and provide a link to
their Web site.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add a button for full screen.
(CODE: click="stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;")
2. Add a button for normal screen.
(CODE: click="stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL")
3. Click on the Full Screen button.
4. Click on the Normal Window button.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
Restored screen (using Normal Window button) should display all VNC
sessions in the same number of rows and columns as when the application
launched.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
Restored screen (using Normal Window button) VNC session cells appear in a
single column and require a scroll bar to view.  See attached screenshot
for details.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Auto-disconnect and re-connect to all VNC sessions after a preset number of
minutes.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
User enables the auto refresh option.  After the option is enabled, the
user sets how many minutes until the auto refresh function is launched. 
airVNC checks to see if the refresh option is enabled, if so, it checks to
see how often the function should be executed.  It executes the function
after XX number of minutes have passed.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
If a workstation is rebooted, the VNC session will disconnect as well. 
Additionally, some VNC sessions time out after a set period of time and
auto-disconnect.  This feature will allow the sessions to be refreshed and
remain active.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Add a button that will reload all loaded VNC sessions.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
User clicks on the button.  A status message appears across all VNC
sessions show "Disconnecting, Please Wait".  All VNC sessions currently
loaded disconnect.  After the software has confirmed all disconnects have
been successful, the software re-connects to the previously connected
sessions.  A status message across on all VNC session cells show
"Reconnecting, Please Wait".  After a successful connection, the status
message changes to "Refresh Successful" if successful and fades away.  If
unsuccessful, the message changes to "Unsuccessful reconnect attempt on
<hostname or IP>" and fades away after 5 seconds.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
If there is a network hiccup that causes the application to lose
connectivity, a simple click of the button will allow users to re-establish
connectivity without having to reload a host servers.xml file.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
When a host VNC session fails due to network loss, display an icon over the
cell to show the user the session has been lost and must be reconnected.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
Each VNC session checks on a regular basis (timeframe in minutes is
configured in the systems.xml or a settings menu) to see if the connection
to the host has been lost.  If the connection is good, do nothing.  If the
host is unavailable, display an icon in the middle of the VNC session cell
showing no connectivity.  The user puts the mouse over the cell and clicks
on the "Reconnect" button to re-establish connection to the host.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
A visual display showing a failure of a VNC session to help users determine
if there is a problem with the session not refreshing or lack of
communication from the host.

ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS:
The icon can be the circle with a line through that was used for the
wireless hand scanners when showing an error.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Button on top navigation bar to manually add a single host at a time.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
The user clicks the button and a window opens asking for the following
information:
- VNC Server IP Address or Hostname
- VNC Server Password
NOTE: Future functionality should include additional options, such as the
encoding type, compression level, JPEG quality, color quality, view only
and share desktop.
After the user has entered the information required, the user clicks on the
"OK" button to add the host.  If the user wishes to forgo the process, the
user can click on a "CANCEL" button to remove the window.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
If the user does not have a servers.xml file pre-made, they have the option
of loading each host VNC session one by one.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Button on top navigation bar to load hosts servers.xml file.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
The user clicks on the button, and a window appears asking for the location
of the servers.xml file.  The user navigates and clicks on the host file
and clicks on the OPEN button.  The existing hosts are removed from the
window and the new hosts are loaded into the window.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
This allows the user to chose a servers.xml file from any location,
removing the limitation of putting the servers.xml file in the same
location as the binary file.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open application.
2. Click on maximize button.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
All VNC cells resize the session appropriately.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The bottom right and middle windows re-size appropriately, however the rest
of the windows do not.  Please see the screenshot for details.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
This was done on a 1920x1200 resolution monitor.

BUILD:
nightly2

OS VERSION:
All

INFORMATION:
With the addition of the minimize, maximize and close buttons, the "Full
Screen" option is now redundant and no longer necessary.  It should be removed.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Ability to remove host from the thumbnail window.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
The user moves his mouse over the thumbnail.  The sub-navigation panels
appear.  On the top navigation panel, the IP address or hostname is
displayed on the left.  On the right is a button to close the session and
remove it from the thumbnail viewer.  On mouse-over, the button displays a
notice "Remove this session from thumbnail window."

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
Allows the user to remove unnecessary thumbnail sessions instead of having
to reload the viewer from start.

replace the FNVC component by FlashlightVNC

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open airVNC application. 
2. Look at fonts next to icons in the navigation bar.


HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
The fonts should be anti-aliased and take the same amount so space as the
icons, as shown in the original mockup.


PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
Pure aesthetics.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch airVNC with a server.xml file that connects to an unknown host.
(example: 10.0.0.0)
2. Wait for the timeout to create and display the error. 

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
A notification in the VNC session cell with an error statement explaining
the VNC session could not connect.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
A pop-up error Window.  Please see the attached screenshot for details.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open airVNC.
2. Click on the "New Session" button.
3. Click on the "Create" button without entering any data.
4. Click "OK" on the warning window.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
After the notification that fields were left blank, airVNC should discard
any attempt to add a new host window.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
A blank host session is added to the thumbnail window.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch airvnc.
2. Click on lower right corner of application.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
Ability to drag or re-size window.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The window is re-sized automatically and becomes smaller.  The cells inside
the window go into a single column.  A scroll bar appears on the right side
of the window.  See the attached screenshot for an example.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run airVNC.
2. Connect to multiple servers.
3. Open Task Manager in Windows.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
In order for airVNC to be a viable product, it needs to be able to use
memory efficiently and respond to inputs well.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The application is extremely slow after launch.  Moving the window around
the screen causes delays and moving just the mouse around the screen shows
lag and hesitation.  After the application has been left open for a period
of time, the buttons to close, minimize and maximize become unresponsive
and must be clicked multiple times before the application closes.  The
application uses approximately 200MB of memory from the system while it is
running during my tests with 9 VNC sessions connected.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Save button on the navigation toolbar to save manually added hosts to a
servers.xml file with encoded passwords.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
User clicks on the save button and a window appears.  The user is asked
where the servers.xml file should be saved.  The user navigates to the
location where the user wants to save the file.  The user clicks on the
"SAVE" button to save the file.  If the user opts to not save the file, the
user has the option to click on the "CANCEL" button which closes the window.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
If a user adds a list of hosts, this feature will allow the user to save
the loaded configuration to a file so the VNC sessions can be loaded
automatically the next time the application is launched.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open application.
2. Open XML file to add servers (recommend 9 servers).
3. Move mouse over thumbnail.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
The airVNC application shows the IP address at the top of the screen and
the connect/disconnect, connection status, and record button at the bottom
of the window.  These items fit neatly inside of the thumbnail.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
When moving the mouse over the thumbnail, the top and bottom information
display appears as expected, however they do not auto scale based on the
size of the thumbnail.  If your thumbnail is smaller than the static size
of the cells, horizontal and vertical scroll bars appear inside these cells.

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Create a start menu launcher for Windows.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
As the airVNC application is installed on the machine, the installer should
created a folder called airVNC under START > PROGRAM FILES.  A shortcut is
then created to point to the airVNC application binary under c:\Program
Files\airVNC.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
To launch the airVNC application easily in Windows environments.

BUILD:
airVNC - Nightly Build 2009-04-17

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
On the session settings change the port to other than 5900 and run the VNC 
server on a port different from 5900 (The same port as the client)

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
Successfull connection

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
Cannot connect.

OS VERSION:
ALL

REQUESTED FUNCTIONALITY:
Add airVNC icon to launcher tool.

HOW IT SHOULD WORK:
When the user clicks on the shortcut to launch airVNC, it should have the
icon of the application instead of the blank launch tool that is the
default in Windows, Mac and Linux.

PURPOSE OF FUNCTIONALITY:
Pure aesthetics. 

BUILD:
nightly2

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
Click on the "New Session" button.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
The Type option should display "Live" or "Thumb".  

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The text for "Live" and/or "Thumb" exists, but only shows up when you click
on the radio button.  Please see the attached screenshot for more details.

OS VERSION:
All

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch airVNC.
2. Grab the lower right corner and resize the window to a point where the
icons on the navigation bar overlap.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
Option #1:  If you attempt to resize the window to a size that is smaller
than the original window size (800x600), it will not resize the application.

Option #2:  If you attempt to resize the window to a size that is smaller
than the original window size (800x600), the navigation bar becomes a
separate window by itself.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The icons on the navigation bar overlap one another and the navigation bar
has scrollbars both horizontal and vertical.  Please see screenshot for
details.

Software Version:
airVNC_nightlyBuild2.air

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch airVNC.
2. Click on the Maximize button.
3. Click on the Maximize button a second time.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
After pressing the Maximize button the first time, the window should 
maximize to the full size of the available desktop space.  It should show 
the taskbar or other navigation bar of the desktop of the host operating 
system.  When clicking on the Maximize button a second time, it should 
restore the original size of the window prior to the initial press of the 
Maximize button.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
The first press of the Maximize button does maximize to the full size of 
the available desktop space minus the taskbar or other navigation bars on 
the OS that is hosting the application.  However, after clicking the 
Maximize button a second time, the application is put into full screen 
mode.  The only way to restore the application is to close the application 
completely and restart.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The Maximize button should also be used to restore the application from 
full screen mode to a restored normal state (non-maximized).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open application.
2. Open Task Manager.
3. Click on "Performance" tab.
4. Observe CPU usage.

EXPECTED OUTPUT:
airVNC should be using as little CPU as possible while running.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
airVNC uses at minimum 50% CPU power while it is running.  When the
application is closed, the CPU consumption on the computer drops
dramatically.  Please see the screenshot for the output of Task Manager.
