test suite: root access control feature
Originally created by Tails on #5431 (Redmine)
This ticket tracks the progress of replacing certain steps of the
manual test
suite with
automated tests in features/root_access_control.feature
.
Tests that needs a review:
The following automated tests need a review from someone else than intrigeri, after which this ticket’s “Type of work” can be set to “Pass Test”. Then, once the tests pass for two of us, we can remove the corresponding tests from our manual test suite.
- Boot Tails without setting a password and check you can’t get
PolicyKit administrative privileges (e.g. run a command with
pkexec), neither with the
amnesia
password nor with thelive
one. - Boot Tails with a password and check you can get PolicyKit administrative privileges.
