2018 Applet v5 Installer Testing Notes

< Back

During development testing, BFC utilized multiple tests on multiple configurations and looked for issues with Anti Virus products or configuration differences.

Each test run started with a clean OS (meaning no installed software except what is indicated on the chart) and then install any browsers required for the install test. Next, hardware was installed and configured before starting the install (or not) of the Postalmate™ application.

The grid is label with the tester’s name or the computer utilized for the test (ex: HP would designate a Hewlett Packard computer, HV would be a HyperV machine, VB is a Virtual Box environment).

During 2018 testing, only the Avast Anti-Virus product was causing problems with the installer but worked after Avast completed its scan of the downloaded file.

Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware Products tested:

  • Avast
  • Avira
  • Bitdefender
  • Webroot
  • McAffee
  • F-Secure
  • Kasperky
  • TrendMicro
