New user role: Manual control only
13 Dec 2021.
in the Stb-tester Portal
The “manual control” role allows users to control devices-under-test remotely, and see live video from the devices, without access to the test scripts in the test-pack git repository. This allows you to grant access to a third party without letting them see the test scripts you have developed which are your own intellectual property.
The Stb-tester Portal uses GitHub OAuth for single-sign-on: Any users with read, write, or admin access to the test-pack git repository have access to the Stb-tester Portal. Users with the new “manual control” role still need a GitHub account for authentication, but they don’t need access to the git repository.
