[Bug 1721272] Re: Create 'ua' symlink pointing at 'ubuntu-advantage'

[Eric Desrochers]

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  We want to add a short alias named 'ua' to the ubuntu-advantage script.
  This can be easily accomplished by creating a 'ua' symlink pointing at the 'ubuntu-advantage' script. Likewise for its manpage.
  
  Documentation and tests were updated.
  
  Full diff of all changes on github: https://github.com/CanonicalLtd
  /ubuntu-advantage-script/compare/v10...v13
  
  v13 also enables running the tests during package build (as requested by
  SRU verification team (sil2100)).
  
  [Test Case]
  
+ {ua symlink}
   * Install v13 ubuntu-advantage-tool package
   * Look if symlink "/usr/bin/ua" exist, pointing to /usr/bin/ubuntu-advantage  and working.
   * Validate "man ua" which should display the manpage of its symlink TARGET "/usr/bin/ubuntu-advantage"
  
  Basically "ubuntu-advantage" script or symlink "ua" can be use to
  perform the same set of tasks.
  
+ {Testsuite at build time}
+  * Look the buildlog and make sure dh_auto_test succeed as follow :
+ 
+ Output took from PPA build test :
+    debian/rules override_dh_auto_test
+ python3 -m unittest discover tests
+ Ran 55 tests in 4.995s
+ OK
+ 
  [Regression Potential]
  
   * Regression is low
  
   * First, the fix incorporate the testsuite at build time (as requested
  by SRU verification team), so no effect on the actual source code and
- secondly, it introduce a new symlink pointing to an existing script.
+ secondly, it introduce a new symlink "ua" pointing to an existing script
