Version 2 — 2026-09-16

Test 2 — Following an Order

  1. Log in to the tester harness with your personal ID and password. Press Login and select Test Data Set Kitchenware. Press Open Rodex. Wait for the link to appear and click on it. Startup can be slow, so it may take up to half a minute before Rodex starts.
  2. At the Rodex login screen, log in as elinj with password demo-elinj.
  3. You should now see three blue lines. They are here to remind you what you have recently done and what you need to do next. The colors indicate how urgent something is. Blue lines are general information, yellow lines mean that you need to take action, and red lines mean that something is very important. Sometimes you can click a line to go directly to the corresponding item.
  4. Look at the line saying “You have created draft purchase order 1789376608.” It is a reminder about an order that was recently created. You are logged in as Elin Johansson. She works for the customer company Hemmabord, so Elin and her colleagues are likely to order new articles every now and then.
  5. Hover the mouse pointer over this message and keep it still. Within a second you should see “johank created draft order 1789376608 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”. This is a typical example of how Rodex can explain or add details to something when you rest the mouse pointer above it. You may wonder who johank is. He is a colleague or assistant to Elin. We will get back to this later.
  6. Please look at the next row. It says “You have issued purchase order 2.” When you hover over it, you should see “johank issued order 2 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”. When an order is first created, it has the status of a draft order. As a draft, it gets a long temporary number, such as 1789376608. When it is issued (sent), it gets a serial number. In this case, that number is 2. So these two numbers refer to the same order.
  7. Now look at the third row. It says “Purchase order 2 has been confirmed.” If you hover the mouse pointer over it, you should see “erikb confirmed order 2 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”.
  8. Click on the message above. You should now see a new page with the title Purchase orders. At the top you see a table with only one row in it so far. It shows order number 2. Under it, you see the full order in the Order detail box.
  9. Spend some time looking at this order. You do not need to change anything, but please report anything you would like to improve and any questions you have.
  10. Hover the mouse pointer over the Supplier NordicTable. You should now see the full company name: Nordic Table Trading AB.
  11. Hover the mouse pointer over the Created date 2026-09-14. It should show the exact time and the full name of the order creator.
  12. Hover the mouse pointer over the Article NT-BWL-220. You should now see the full article name.
  13. Look at the Article list. One of the column headers should have a tiny arrow next to it. This indicates the sort order. Click the headers (Article, Quantity, and so on) to see how the sort order of the articles changes.
  14. You have now seen a few user names. Let’s inspect them. In the menu on the left, scroll down and click Users. Here you can see three users working for this company: Elin Johansson, Johan Karlsson and Maja Lund. You can also see their main roles. We will explain these roles in more detail later, but for now note that you, Elin Johansson, are PLA — Primary Local Administrator. You are the person mainly responsible for Rodex at Hemmabord.
  15. Try to change the sort order of the rows in the list.
  16. Note that erikb is not in the list. He is the person who confirmed the order, but he works for the supplier, NordicTable.
  17. Log out from Rodex.
  18. Log in to Rodex again. This time use erikb with password demo-erikb.
  19. In the upper-left corner you can see erikb’s real name, Erik Berg, and his company, NordicTable. In the main area, you can see that Erik has received an order, then created his own purchase order and issued it, got it confirmed, and then confirmed the order he received first. Let’s have a look at it. Click the last line saying “You have confirmed order 2.”
  20. You now see a sales order. This is the one that Johan Karlsson at Hemmabord issued earlier. Feel free to look around this page. Please report questions, errors and suggestions for improvement. Log out when you are ready. It is recommended that you log out both from Rodex and from the tester harness.

Today’s testing is over. Thank you!

测试 2 — 跟踪一份订单

  1. 使用您的个人测试员 ID 和密码登录测试系统。点击 Login,选择 Test Data Set Kitchenware,然后点击 Open Rodex。等待链接出现后点击它。Rodex 启动有时比较慢,可能需要最多半分钟。
  2. 在 Rodex 登录页面,使用用户名 elinj 和密码 demo-elinj 登录。
  3. 现在您应该看到三条蓝色信息。它们用于提醒您最近做过什么,以及接下来需要做什么。颜色表示事情的紧急程度:蓝色表示一般信息,黄色表示您需要采取行动,红色表示事情非常重要。有些信息可以点击,直接进入相关项目。
  4. 查看 “You have created draft purchase order 1789376608.” 这一行。它是在提醒您最近创建过的一份订单。您现在以 Elin Johansson 的身份登录。她在客户公司 Hemmabord 工作,因此 Elin 和她的同事偶尔需要订购新的商品。
  5. 把鼠标指针停在这条信息上,不要移动。大约一秒钟内,您应该看到 “johank created draft order 1789376608 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”。这是 Rodex 的一个常见功能:当您把鼠标停在某个项目上时,它可以显示解释或更多细节。您可能会想知道 johank 是谁。他是 Elin 的同事或助手。稍后我们会再介绍他。
  6. 请看下一行。它显示 “You have issued purchase order 2.”。把鼠标停在上面时,您应该看到 “johank issued order 2 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”。订单刚创建时是草稿订单,会得到一个较长的临时编号,例如 1789376608。订单正式发出后,会得到一个连续编号,本例中是 2。因此,这两个编号实际上指的是同一份订单。
  7. 现在看第三行。它显示 “Purchase order 2 has been confirmed.”。把鼠标停在上面时,您应该看到 “erikb confirmed order 2 - 2026-09-14 09:03:28 UTC”。
  8. 点击上面的信息。现在应该打开一个标题为 Purchase orders 的新页面。顶部的表格目前只有一行,显示订单号 2。下面的 Order detail 区域显示这份订单的完整内容。
  9. 花一点时间查看这份订单。您不需要修改任何内容,但如果有任何希望改进的地方或任何问题,请告诉我们。
  10. 把鼠标停在 Supplier NordicTable 上。现在应该显示公司的完整名称:Nordic Table Trading AB。
  11. 把鼠标停在 Created 日期 2026-09-14 上。应该会显示准确时间以及订单创建人的完整姓名。
  12. 把鼠标停在 Article NT-BWL-220 上。现在应该显示商品的完整名称。
  13. 查看 Article 列表。其中一个列标题旁边应该有一个很小的箭头,表示当前排序方式。点击不同的列标题(Article、Quantity 等),看看商品的排序如何变化。
  14. 您现在已经看到几个用户名。我们来看看这些人。在左侧菜单向下滚动,然后点击 Users。这里可以看到在这家公司工作的三位用户:Elin Johansson、Johan Karlsson 和 Maja Lund。您还可以看到他们的主要角色。稍后会进一步介绍这些角色。现在只需要注意:您当前的身份 Elin Johansson 是 PLA — Primary Local Administrator,也就是 Hemmabord 公司中主要负责 Rodex 的人。
  15. 试着改变列表中各行的排序方式。
  16. 注意,列表中没有 erikb。他就是确认这份订单的人,但他在供应商 NordicTable 工作。
  17. 退出 Rodex。
  18. 再次登录 Rodex。这次使用用户名 erikb,密码 demo-erikb。
  19. 在左上角可以看到 erikb 的真实姓名 Erik Berg 和他的公司 NordicTable。在主区域可以看到:Erik 收到了一份订单,随后创建并发出了自己的一份采购订单,收到确认后,又确认了最初收到的订单。我们来看看这份订单。点击最后一行 “You have confirmed order 2.”。
  20. 现在您看到的是一份销售订单。这就是 Hemmabord 的 Johan Karlsson 之前发出的那份订单。您可以自由查看这个页面。请报告任何问题、错误或改进建议。完成后请退出。建议同时退出 Rodex 和测试系统。

今天的测试到这里结束。谢谢!


Rodex Manual Testing

Version 1 — 2026-09-15
Latest change: First test instructions.

Back to latest instructions

What is Rodex?

Rodex is a web application for companies trading goods between countries.

It helps companies keep track of products, customers and suppliers, orders, payments, transportation, stock and documents needed for international trade.

Rodex is intended to work between countries worldwide. We cannot build and test everything at once, so we are starting with trade from Asia to the European Union (EU).

Before You Start

Rodex is still under development. It is far from finished. That is why we need your help testing it.

Things may be missing. Something may be difficult to understand. You may find errors. Rodex may even stop working while you are using it.

These are all useful test results.

If something goes wrong or you do not understand what to do, please report what happened. If possible, tell us what you were trying to do and what you saw on the screen.

If you get stuck, stop that test and report why. You can start again or try something else while you wait for us to fix the problem.

If you have a question, find something confusing, notice an error, or simply want to tell us what you think, please email:

testing@rodex.ai

All feedback is useful. You do not need to know whether something is actually an error before reporting it. If something looks wrong or is difficult to understand, tell us.

All companies, people, products, orders, prices and other information used in these tests are fictional. No business data in the test system is real.

Your Tester Account

You will receive your personal tester ID and password separately.

Please keep your password secret. Do not give it to anyone else. If you think somebody else may have seen your password, tell us. We will change it.

These test instructions will change as testing continues.

Always check the version number and date at the top of this page. When we tell you that new instructions are available, press Ctrl-R in your browser to reload the page.

The first test is deliberately simple. Its purpose is to let you become familiar with Rodex and with the testing system.

How to Start

Testing has two login steps.

The first login is only for testers. The second is the normal Rodex login that ordinary Rodex users see.

Open:

https://test.rodex.ai

  1. Enter your tester ID in the first field.
  2. Enter your tester password in the second field.
  3. Click Login.
  4. You should see Kitchenware in the Test Data Set column. Leave it unchanged.
  5. Click Open Rodex.

Rodex will open in another browser window or tab.

You will now see the normal Rodex login page. This is the login page that ordinary Rodex users use. They do not see the special tester page you just used.

The Three Companies

For these tests we simulate trade between three companies:

These companies and their employees are fictional.

You will frequently log in as different people so that you can see the transaction from different sides.

Wei Li — Jade River

Login: liwei
Password: demo-liwei

Wei works for the manufacturer in China.

Anna Lindberg — Nordic Table

Login: annal
Password: demo-annal

Anna works for the Swedish importer.

Elin Johansson — Hemmabord

Login: elinj
Password: demo-elinj

Elin works for the Swedish retailer.

Test 1 — Getting Started

For the first test, log in as:

Login: liwei
Password: demo-liwei

Take a moment to look at the screen.

There should be a menu on the left. The main area should show Message of the day. There may also be some blue messages below it.

Scroll down the menu on the left and select Preferences.

You will see several settings. You do not need to change them. Scroll through the page and have a look at what is available.

Find Language.

It initially shows English - English. Click it to see the available languages.

If you only use English, leave it unchanged.

If you speak Chinese, select Chinese - 中文.

Rodex should change to Chinese.

Have a look around after changing the language. If you notice text that is wrong, strange, difficult to understand, or appears in the wrong language, please report it.

When you are finished, find Log out or 退出 in the upper-right corner and click it.

You have now logged out of Rodex. You are still logged into the separate tester system. You can leave that page open or close its browser tab or window.

Finished!

That is all for Test 1.

There is deliberately nothing more you need to do today.

Questions, feedback and error reports can be sent to testing@rodex.ai.

When we tell you that the next test is available, return to this page and press Ctrl-R to make sure you have the latest version.

Check that the version number at the top has changed, then continue with Test 2.


Rodex 手动测试

版本 1 — 2026-09-15
最新更新:首次测试说明。

返回最新测试说明

Rodex 是什么?

Rodex 是一个帮助企业进行跨国商品贸易的网页应用程序。

它可以帮助企业管理产品、客户和供应商、订单、付款、运输、库存,以及国际贸易所需的各种文件。

Rodex 的目标是支持世界各国之间的贸易。我们无法一次完成并测试所有功能,因此目前首先从亚洲出口到欧盟(EU)的贸易流程开始。

开始测试之前

Rodex 目前仍在开发中,距离完成还有很长一段路。这正是我们需要您帮助测试的原因。

有些功能可能还没有完成,有些地方可能不容易理解。您可能会遇到错误,甚至可能在使用过程中遇到 Rodex 无法继续工作的情况。

这些情况都是有价值的测试结果。

如果出现问题,或者您不知道下一步该怎么做,请告诉我们发生了什么。如果可以,请说明您当时想做什么,以及屏幕上显示了什么。

如果您无法继续某项测试,请停在那里并告诉我们原因。等待我们处理问题期间,您可以重新开始,或者尝试测试其他功能。

如果您有任何问题、发现令人困惑的地方、遇到错误,或者只是想告诉我们您的看法,请发送电子邮件至:

testing@rodex.ai

所有反馈都有帮助。您不需要先判断某个问题是否真的是错误。如果某个地方看起来不对,或者难以理解,请告诉我们。

测试系统中的公司、人员、产品、订单、价格以及其他所有信息都是虚构的。测试系统中没有真实的商业数据。

您的测试员账号

我们会另外向您提供个人测试员 ID 和密码。

请妥善保管您的密码,不要告诉其他人。如果您怀疑其他人可能看到了您的密码,请立即告诉我们,我们会为您更换密码。

随着测试工作的进行,这份测试说明也会不断更新。

请每次都查看本页顶部的版本号和日期。当我们通知您有新的测试说明时,请在浏览器中按 Ctrl-R 重新加载本页。

第一次测试非常简单,主要目的是让您熟悉 Rodex 和我们的测试系统。

如何开始

测试时需要登录两次。

第一次登录只供测试员使用。第二次登录才是普通 Rodex 用户平时看到的登录页面。

请在浏览器中打开:

https://test.rodex.ai

  1. 在第一个输入框中填写您的测试员 ID。
  2. 在第二个输入框中填写您的测试员密码。
  3. 点击 Login。
  4. 在 Test Data Set 一栏中应该可以看到 Kitchenware。请不要更改。
  5. 点击 Open Rodex。

Rodex 会在新的浏览器窗口或标签页中打开。

现在您看到的是普通的 Rodex 登录页面。普通 Rodex 用户平时就是从这里登录的。他们不会看到您刚才使用的测试员专用页面。

三家公司

在这些测试中,我们模拟三家公司之间的贸易:

这些公司和员工都是虚构的。

测试过程中,您会经常使用不同人员的账号登录,以便从不同公司的角度了解同一笔业务是如何进行的。

Wei Li — Jade River

登录名: liwei
密码: demo-liwei

Wei 在中国的制造商工作。

Anna Lindberg — Nordic Table

登录名: annal
密码: demo-annal

Anna 在瑞典的进口商工作。

Elin Johansson — Hemmabord

登录名: elinj
密码: demo-elinj

Elin 在瑞典的零售商工作。

测试 1 — 开始使用

第一次测试请使用以下账号登录:

登录名: liwei
密码: demo-liwei

登录后先简单看一下屏幕。

左侧应该有一个菜单。主区域应该显示 Message of the day。下面可能还会显示一些蓝色信息。

向下滚动左侧菜单,然后选择 Preferences。

页面中会显示一些设置。您不需要修改这些设置,可以向下滚动页面,简单看看有哪些选项。

找到 Language。

最初显示的是 English - English。点击它可以查看其他可用语言。

如果您只使用英语,请保持不变。

如果您使用中文,请选择 Chinese - 中文。

Rodex 应该会切换为中文。

切换语言后,请随意查看一下各个页面。如果您发现文字有错误、表达奇怪、不容易理解,或者显示了错误的语言,请告诉我们。

完成后,在右上角找到 Log out 或 退出,然后点击。

现在您已经退出 Rodex,但仍然登录在单独的测试员系统中。您可以让该页面保持打开,也可以关闭对应的浏览器标签页或窗口。

完成!

测试 1 到这里就结束了。

今天不需要再进行其他测试。

问题、反馈和错误报告请发送至 testing@rodex.ai。

当我们通知您下一项测试已经可以开始时,请重新打开本页面,并按 Ctrl-R,确保看到的是最新版本。

确认页面顶部的版本号已经更新,然后继续阅读 测试 2。
