Testing LocalEGA

User Authentication

  • (U.1) User does not exist
  • (U.2) User does not have rights to access this LocalEGA instance because he's a user of another LocalEGA instance
  • (U.3) User account has expired
  • (U.4) User authentication failed: password or ssh-key
  • (U.5) User authentication succeeds but user inbox not created: ssh/sftp access denied
  • (U.6) Database connection fails, so user information is not available
  • (U.7) User tries to login via something else than ssh/sftp

File Uploading and Ingestion

  • (F.1) User applies the wrong encryption protocol (ie not OpenPGP)
  • (F.2) User uses the wrong GPG key or sends it to the wrong LocalEGA
  • (F.3) Ingestion starts but inbox not created
  • (F.4) Ingestion starts but file not found in inbox
  • (F.5) File found but its checksum doesn't match with the supplied one
  • (F.6) File found but its checksum doesn't match with the companion file
  • (F.7) File found, no checksum supplied and no companion file
  • (F.8) File found, its checksum is correct but the GPG decryption fails (and why)

    To be expanded. That item comprises many tests! eg Keyserver communication fails: Server down, SSL encryption channel is not set up... GPG key not found, GPG key not unlocked etc

  • (F.9) File found, its checkusum is valid, the GPG decryption succeed but the checksum of the decrypted doesn't match with the supplied one
  • (F.10) File found, its checkusum is valid, the GPG decryption succeed but the checksum of the decrypted doesn't match with the companion file
  • (F.11) File found, ...., but re-encryption fails (and why)

    To be expanded. This item comprises many tests! eg key not found

  • (F.12) Re-encryption failure due shortage in the staging area

    To be expanded. This item comprises many tests! eg disk full, or mount failed, ...

  • (F.13) Moving to staging area failed

    Vault listener is down, vault disk is full, staging area mount failed, etc...

  • (F.14) Verification of the copied file in the vault failed

    The file was not fully copied, so its checksum failed (calculated at the re-encryption step).

  • (F.15) Database connection failed, so information about the file is not available

Robustness

  • (R.1) Everything works after a system reboot (manually or power outage)
  • (R.2) Some components are restarted (especially the database, but also the ingestion workers or the vault)
  • (R.3) Stress tests:
    • (R.3a) ingesting a big file
    • (R.3b) ingesting many files
