I have installed Ubuntu on my machine (it is special, not a X86). So I want to test if the applications worked well. I want to use automation test methods to do it, but how can I do this?

Is there any references or suggestions to do this? By the way, most of the tests are functions in the GUI, such as Gedit, Firefox, Power manager, etc

Pray tell, how is it "special"? Is it a SPARC? PPC? MIPS? VAX? ENIAC? – izx Jul 13 '12 at 9:10

There is a system testing tool called Checkbox.

"Checkbox is a test runner for Ubuntu. It aims to provide a common framework to run all types of tests, from hardware tests, to command line tests, unit tests or desktop tests and send their results to Launchpad, automatically."
