Troubleshooting Citrix Client for Linux and Fixing Mike Support

Sometimes you find yourself in one of those situations when nobody seems to have an easy solution, so you have to find one for yourself. For instance, you may need to connect to your VDI, and start your Skype meeting only to find that your microphone is disabled (in Skype, in Control Panel > Device manager).

And the answer is
to add AllowAudioInput=True
to the section [WFClient]
of wfclient.ini file
of your Citrix client configuration

So, here is how to fix it in slightly more detail:

Test Plan structure proven by several projects

Some time ago I wrote about the importance of using standards as a time saver. Since then I had a chance to apply this approach to several projects where I participated as a test expert.

So, below you can find a structure that helps to collect in one place all info you need to know about the state of test in a project. (I usually build a test plan as a single entry point for all the questions related to test by means of Atlassian Confluence, but I guess any other knowledge sharing system will do).

Also, I can guarantee that if you are able (have enough info, that is) to fill all the sections of my version of a test plan, then you do have your test process under control. So it can function as a checklist and and answer to a question where to start.

My version of a test plan consists of eight sections with subsections. Subsections may vary for each particular project, but I recommend sticking with the top-level ones.

IMPORTANT: Don't duplicate info, don't add info just to fill in sections, it is important that test plan is not just a formal piece of paper.
