- Ensure that each diagnostic test category can be identified by easy prefix
matching on the test ID.
- Give a different unique IDs each different kind of test. More specific tests
of a type get a different kind of ID.
- Make comparison of diagnostic test results in test cases more comprehensive.
- Simplify code that shows the number if issues identified.
- In many languages, there is complex logic to write plural forms. Plurals
can't be handled by assuming singular = 1 item and plural is > 1. Translation of
messages in Notification does not support plurals properly. Avoid this for now
by using sometimes incorrect plural form.
- For i18n we should avoid joining phrases/words. Words don't always maintain
order after translation.
- Notify about the total number of issues in diagnostics and not just the most
severe category. This is likely to draw more attention and avoid i18n
complexity.
- Dismiss the diagnostic notification if the latest run succeeded completely.
Tests:
- Unit tests pass.
- Diagnostics for following apps works: networks (drop-in config),
apache (daemon, listen address, internal firewall, external firewall),
tor (netcat), torproxy (internal only firewall, torproxy url, torproxy using
tor), privoxy (privoxy url, package available, package latest),
- Untested: Is release file available method in upgrades app.
