• Steps to Execute:

The purpose of this test is to verify that hotspot can be successfully opened by scanning the QR code.

Note: this can only be done using devices that have the QR scanning tool in their settings > connection > add network, or devices that have a QR scanning app installed, or devices that are able to take a photo of a QR code and successfully interpret it (even if they have no separate QR reader app installed)

Settings:

Device 1 device settings wifi=ON Briar app settings wifi = ON

Device 2 device settings wifi=ON Briar app settings wifi = ON

Steps to Execute:

Device 1

• Go to Settings > Share Briar offline
• Tap Start sharing button
• New screen shows the details of Wi-Fi network that the device2 needs to connected to
• Go to QR code tab

Device 2

• Go to Settings on the device2 (not Briar settings, but the device settings)
• Go to Connections (or Network and internet) > Wi-Fi
• Add another Wi-fi Network
• If the device has a little QR code symbol next to the Add network option, tap that symbol
• This should open the QR code scanner tool
• Scan the QR code from the device 1
• A new wi-fi network should apear in the list of available wi-fi network, and its name should correspond to the name stated on the screen on device 1 that shows the details of the wi-fi/hotspot to connect to
• No password should be required to be entered by the user, as that is all part of the QR code
• Verify that this new wi-fi network is connected (even though it has no access to internet)
• Navigate away from that screen, and then back and verify that the newly created wi-fi network is still connected

Expected Results

• wi-fi network is created and connected successfully
