[aerogear-dev] Staging of UPS 1.1.0-beta.2

Wed Jun 10 23:01:53 EDT 2015

Hi,

I am mostly tracking what Tadeas found for Beta1 release.

1. While sending push notification from the browser, there is "No
variants" in variant selection by default. When I do not select any
variant, the message is sent to all variants. It should be renamed to
"All variants" instead "No variants" or it should be said that when
nothing is chosen, by default it will be sent everywhere.
2. For some reason there is a lot of space in the bottom and I can
scroll away all the content - minor issue.
3. In the last release, according to Tadeas, hovering over ? icons in
analytics panel did nothing - this is now repaired and works correctly
4. In the variant list, it was showing 0 delivered when something was
already sent and delivered. This is now repaired and it displays
numbers correctly.
5. In Sender API tab there was always Set up Java UPS on top of the
other sender platform. This is now repaired and it displays right
titles for every API.
6. Search in PushApplication list does not work (and I am not sure if
it is necessary as there should not be that many apps) - this was
removed, I do not see any search field anymore hence resolved.

Bugs:

1. After adding variant for simple push in the wizard, all links on
that variant page are dead - they do not do anything.

UI/UX Quirks

1. repaired - Variant creation dialog wraps text when there is a lot
of space [1]
2. repaired - The area between number of devices and edit button shows
the hand cursor, but it is not clickable. I would suggest to make it
clickable and the action would be expanding/collapsing the variant
detail -
3. dummy warnings are not there anymore
4. This is not changed in beta 2 and I agree with Tadeas about it -
When hitting the Edit variant button, it shows a dialog where I can
change only the name of the variant. However when I click the Change
network options button, I am presented with the possibility to change
both the name of the variant and the network specific configuration. I
would therefore suggest to not show the name field in the Change
network options dialog as it is not considered a good practise to have
two ways of doing the same thing in UI.
5. repaired, links are opened in new tab - Links to Android, Chrome,
iOS, Cordova etc. in variant detail should open the documentation in a
new tab like the rest of documentation links. Now it opens in the same
app which is not good because the user wants to stay in the Admin UI.

I tried helloworld quickstart on Android tablet, pushes arrived
without problems, I reinstalled my notebook few days ago so you can
imagine that the bootstraping of all development tools and compilation
of all libs was not so straighforward however I have to say that it
was overall smooth experience and I did it at the first shot.

Admin UI is very nice and responsive as well and I like it as Tadeas
does. Whoever made the decision to migrate to new visual look&feel did
a good job. I excersised UI quite a lot and I do not encounter any
usability nor performance issue.

I am overall satisfied with this release and I do not raise any
significant objections which would prevent the release of 1.1.0-beta.2
of UPS.

I would like to see the release of UPS Java client 1.0.0.Beta2 as
well. Right now there is not any beta2-aligned sender to UPS
1.1.0-beta.2. Beta1 sender is using unifiedpush-push-model of version
1.0.0-alpha2 so I expect that Java client will use parent 0.2.15 and
all bits will be aligned properly.

Regards

Stefan
