Test report AsTeRICS Ergo Version 3.2.1 Windows 10 about asterics-ergo

[deinhofer]

The window popup is probably related to the virus scanner false positive problem:
#20

Regarding the hanging HW tests, similar things have already been observed here:
#21

So, if we are lucky and fix the two issues above, there might be a chance that this issue is fixed as well.

Thank you for the tip.

Detailed report of further testing (short summary see below):
I disable the protection of my virus scanner (I use Kaspersky).
I open AsTeRICS Ergo and select „New Device“ – „Table / Floor Lamp“. The examination whether the FS20 is already installed works. I am asked whether I have already bought FS20 – I select “yes”.
Installation FS20 wizard: after 10 sec, the lamp is not lit anymore, the test fails.
I go back and select “New Device” – “More..” – “Remote – device”: The examination whether the IrTrans is already installed works. I am asked whether I have already bought the IrTrans – I select “yes”. I follow the instructions in the IrTrans Installation Wizard – the test is successful.
I set up the control of the robot vacuum cleaner successfully (inkl. commands “start”, “stop” & “homing”).
I restart the Computer. A window pops up, which states “Error starting IRServer”. This message might confuse the users. (It pops up every time I restart the PC).
I start AsTeRICS Ergo, the control of the robot vacuum cleaner works, however, the command “homing” is gone. I delete the vacuum cleaner and relearn everything – however, now I have the commands “start” & "stop" twice. I restart the PC and open AsTeRICS Ergo – however my device “vacuum cleaner” is not there anymore. I add the control of the vacuum cleaner again inkl. the commands “start”, “stop” & “homing”. I can control the vacuum cleaner using AsTeRICS Ergo. I restart the PC. I start “AsTeRICS Ergo” – I can control the vacuum cleaner as intended. I add the commands “right”, “left”, “forwards” & “backwards” and close AsTeRICS Ergo. I restart the Computer & start “AsTeRICS Ergo”. The vacuum cleaner is gone. I add the vacuum cleaner inkl. The commands “start”, “stop” & “homing”. I delete the vacuum cleaner. I add the vacuum cleaner inkl. the commands “start”, “stop” & “homing” again. I have the vacuum cleaner, but every command twice. I delete 3 commands, so I have every command once.
I add ambient light and name it “living room”. I learn “on” and “off”, but skip dimming. I add ambient light and name it “kitchen”. I learn “on” and “off”, but skip dimming. The control of the ambient light works.
I restart the computer.
I start AsTeRICS Ergo - the control of the devices works.
I add the remote commands “light on” and “lights of”. It works.
I add the television and can control it.
I delete the button “Volume –“ and add it again. It works.
I restart the PC.
The devices are still there, the control of them works.
I close AsTeRICS Ergo. I unplug the IrTrans. I open AsTeRICS Ergo. The control of the devices is still working.
I delete the device “television” and add it again - now I have every command twice. I delete the device “television” and add it again, but now I name it “TV”. I have every command once.
I select „New Device“ – „Table / Floor Lamp“ – the lamp is not lit after 10 sec, I choose „solve the problem“, however, the test fails.
Kaspersky: I enable the protection
The control of the devices using AsTeRICS Ergo is still working.
I restart the computer.
The control is still working (even though the Kaspersky protection is active).

Summary of positive findings:

• Successful installation of IrTrans after deactivating the Kaspersky protection
• After setting up the control of the devices successfully, the control of the devices using AsTeRICS Ergo is possible, even though the Kaspersky protection is enabled.

Errors:

• The installation of the FS20 system remains unsuccessful.
• Sometimes already set up devices are gone after restarting the computer.
• When deleting a device and adding a new one with the same name, the old commands are still there.

Hi, unfortunately you are testing with an old version (sorry that I did not read your tests until now).

• the communication between ARE and webapp has been changed with #1 so maybe the issue that you have to disable kaspersky is now gone with that.
• the issue that sometimes devices are gone or buttons duplicated i also improved with #1 so i hope this also should be better
• The error with the FS20 was, that the red light stopped after some time, right? Did you try to use the fix in the FS20-installation-wizard? if yes, what happened there?

[klues]

just published a new release including the mentioned fixes: https://github.com/asterics/AsTeRICS-Ergo/releases/tag/v3.2.2
@stefaniehoechtl maybe I should show you some time how you can run the latest version on your computer without installing a new release

[stefaniehoechtl]

Yes please, maybe you can show me on Monday?
I did a test with the latest version (see new issue).
