Reboot Testing Procedure for DailyNotification Plugin

Overview

This document provides a comprehensive procedure for testing notification recovery after device reboots. The DailyNotification plugin implements a robust reboot recovery system that restores scheduled notifications after system events.

Prerequisites

• Android device or emulator with ADB enabled
• DailyNotification app installed
• ADB tools installed on development machine
• Notification permissions granted
• Boot receiver permissions granted

Reboot Recovery System

How It Works

1. Boot Receiver Registration: The BootReceiver is registered in AndroidManifest.xml to listen for:

   • BOOT_COMPLETED - Device boot completion
   • MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED - App update
   • PACKAGE_REPLACED - Any package update

2. Recovery Process: When triggered, the boot receiver:

   • Initializes the DailyNotificationRebootRecoveryManager
   • Loads stored notification data from SharedPreferences
   • Reschedules all pending notifications
   • Validates notification integrity

3. Data Persistence: Notification data is stored in:

   • SharedPreferences for notification content
   • AlarmManager for scheduling
   • Internal storage for recovery metadata

Manual Reboot Testing Procedure

Test 1: Basic Reboot Recovery

Objective: Verify notifications are restored after device reboot

Steps:

1. Schedule Notification:

   # Launch app
   adb shell am start -n com.timesafari.dailynotification/.MainActivity
   

   • Tap "Test Notification" button
   • Verify notification scheduled for 5 minutes from now
   • Note the scheduled time

2. Verify Alarm is Scheduled:

   # Check scheduled alarms
   adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"
   

   • Should show scheduled alarm with correct timestamp

3. Reboot Device:

   # Reboot device
   adb reboot
   

   • Wait for device to fully boot (2-3 minutes)
   • Wait for boot animation to complete

4. Verify Recovery:

   # Check if app recovered notifications
   adb logcat -d | grep -i "bootreceiver\|recovery"
   

   • Look for "Device boot completed - restoring notifications"
   • Look for "Notification recovery completed successfully"

5. Verify Alarm Restored:

   # Check if alarm was restored
   adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"
   

   • Should show the same scheduled alarm

6. Wait for Notification:

   • Wait for the originally scheduled time
   • Check notification panel for the test notification

Expected Result: Notification appears at the originally scheduled time

Test 2: App Update Recovery

Objective: Verify notifications are restored after app update

Steps:

1. Schedule Notification:

   • Schedule a notification for 5 minutes from now
   • Verify it's scheduled correctly

2. Update App:

   # Build and install updated app
   cd android && ./gradlew assembleDebug
   adb install -r app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
   

3. Verify Recovery:

   # Check recovery logs
   adb logcat -d | grep -i "package.*replaced\|recovery"
   

   • Look for "Our app was updated - restoring notifications"

4. Verify Alarm Restored:

   # Check if alarm was restored
   adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"
   

5. Wait for Notification:

   • Wait for the scheduled time
   • Verify notification appears

Expected Result: Notification appears after app update

Test 3: Multiple Notifications Recovery

Objective: Verify multiple notifications are restored correctly

Steps:

1. Schedule Multiple Notifications:

   • Schedule 3-4 notifications at different times
   • Note all scheduled times

2. Reboot Device:

   adb reboot
   

3. Verify All Recovered:

   # Check all alarms
   adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"
   

   • Should show all scheduled alarms

4. Test Each Notification:

   • Wait for each scheduled time
   • Verify each notification appears

Expected Result: All notifications appear at their scheduled times

ADB Commands for Reboot Testing

Device Management

# Reboot device
adb reboot

# Wait for device to be ready
adb wait-for-device

# Check if device is ready
adb shell getprop sys.boot_completed

Recovery Monitoring

# Monitor recovery logs in real-time
adb logcat | grep -i "bootreceiver\|recovery"

# Check recovery logs
adb logcat -d | grep -i "bootreceiver\|recovery"

# Check boot receiver registration
adb shell "dumpsys package com.timesafari.dailynotification | grep -A10 -B10 receiver"

Alarm Verification

# Check scheduled alarms before reboot
adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"

# Check scheduled alarms after reboot
adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep timesafari"

# Check exact alarm permissions
adb shell "dumpsys alarm | grep SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM"

Troubleshooting Reboot Recovery

Common Issues

1. Boot Receiver Not Triggered

Symptoms: No recovery logs after reboot Solutions:

• Check boot receiver registration in manifest
• Verify BOOT_COMPLETED permission is granted
• Check if device supports boot receiver (some OEMs disable it)

2. Recovery Fails

Symptoms: Recovery logs show errors Solutions:

• Check SharedPreferences data integrity
• Verify notification content is valid
• Check alarm scheduling permissions

3. Alarms Not Restored

Symptoms: No alarms after recovery Solutions:

• Check exact alarm permissions
• Verify alarm scheduling logic
• Check battery optimization settings

Debug Commands

# Check boot receiver status
adb shell "dumpsys package com.timesafari.dailynotification | grep -A5 -B5 receiver"

# Check recovery manager logs
adb logcat -d | grep -i "rebootrecovery"

# Check notification storage
adb shell "run-as com.timesafari.dailynotification ls -la /data/data/com.timesafari.dailynotification/shared_prefs/"

# Check alarm manager state
adb shell "dumpsys alarm | head -20"

Best Practices

Testing Environment

• Use physical device for most accurate results
• Test on multiple Android versions
• Test on different OEMs (Samsung, Huawei, etc.)
• Test with different battery optimization settings

Test Data

• Use realistic notification content
• Test with multiple notifications
• Test with different time intervals
• Test with various notification priorities

Documentation

• Record test results with timestamps
• Screenshot notification appearances
• Log any errors or unexpected behavior
• Document device-specific issues

Success Criteria

✅ Test Passes When:

• Boot receiver is triggered after reboot
• Recovery logs show successful restoration
• Alarms are rescheduled correctly
• Notifications appear at scheduled times
• Multiple notifications are handled correctly

❌ Test Fails When:

• Boot receiver is not triggered
• Recovery fails with errors
• Alarms are not restored
• Notifications don't appear
• App crashes during recovery

Conclusion

The reboot recovery system ensures that scheduled notifications survive device reboots and app updates. Regular testing of this functionality is crucial for maintaining reliable notification delivery in production environments.
