ok, but I won't install ubuntu, setup an environment on launchpad and 
install bazaar (or do I have to? is it mandatory?). So a little help so 
that I don't spend all my week-end on this would be:
- is this link the good one for test formatting?
http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/CaseAndPlanGuidelines
- are the tests on Litmus good enough or should I write more?
- on this page, there is several tests for Ubuntu/OOo, Kubuntu/OOo, 
Applications/LibreOffice, etc. What is the one I choose

Thanks in advance,
Kind regards
Sophie
