Hi - whilst I applaud the effort to create manual testcases - would you
not have felt more comfortable choosing something that you were more
familiar with?

There are currently 15 tagged as Lubuntu - would you not be better
served doing those to start with, of course you do really need to do so
from the current dev release to ensure you're writing the test against
what is going to be tested.
