Test of video viewer behavior with recorded stream during disconnection

Objective

Verify the video viewer client's behavior when the connection is interrupted between the Netsocs client and the device providing the recorded video stream (e.g., DVR).

Test Steps

  1. Start the viewer and play a recorded stream
  2. Interrupt the connection between the Netsocs client and the device*
  3. Wait for interruption signaling
  4. Restore the connection

Expected Result

  • The interruption is indicated visually to the user
  • The object generates a disconnection event
  • The video channel state must be "Disconnected" during disconnection
  • The video channel state must be "Connected" after restoring the connection
  • After restoring the connection, stream playback resumes

Important Notes

  • It is acceptable (though not ideal) for the viewer not to automatically resume playback after a disconnection. The test will be considered passed if this limitation is explicitly documented in the integration manual test notes.

  • If the user closes the recording interface, the driver must stop retrying the connection.

Implementation Notes

*The interruption must be simulated so that:

  • The Netsocs client loses communication with the device
  • The underlying network connection may remain active
  • The scenario must test both brief and prolonged disconnections
