Checkbox 7.2.0 stable release

Project Discussion Checkbox
1

Hello all!

A new version of Checkbox is now available as a Debian package (in the Stable PPA ) and as Snaps (in the stable channel)!

This release brings you the usual set of bugfixes. We focused a lot on getting the YAML parser ready to replace PXUs and with this last run of changes we are ready to call it stable. Please experiment with it and let us know if you like it!

Additionally, we’ve improved the HTML report so that it shows more telemetry on the device under test and does so deterministically, independently of the test plan you’ve used.

Reminder: if you update Checkbox you will not be able to resume testing session that you begun before updating. If this is undesirable to you, consider pinning Checkbox and finishing all sessions that are ongoing with the following command:

# for snaps:
$ sudo snap refresh --hold=forever checkbox checkbox22
# for debs:
$ sudo apt-mark hold checkbox-ng checkbox-provider-resource checkbox-provider-certification-client checkbox-provider-base

Remember to eventually run the following to re-enable automatic updates:

# for snaps
$ sudo snap refresh --unhold checkbox checkbox22
# for debs
$ sudo apt-mark unhold checkbox-ng checkbox-provider-resource checkbox-provider-certification-client checkbox-provider-base
