No-sweat expansion of Oracle VirtualBox virtual disk

In VirtualBox 4.0 disk size expansion is supported ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) Run this command on the host machine, with due consideration to the actual paths applicable: d:\> vboxmanage modifyhd winXP.vdi -resize 25600   where, 25600 is the absolute final size desired ( not an incremental value) 2) Once this command has run successfully, invoke the virtual machine 3) Now, download/ install/ run the "EaseUS Partition Master" utility in the virtual machine 4) Create a partition from the unallocated disk space 5) Merge this partition to the main drive in virtual machine 6) Boot the virtual machine couple of times, as directed by the UI messages. That's it!

Google Calendar - High Level Design of tests

Please note that: 1. Bullet marks are not accurately reflected in uploaded word documents. 2. UI specific Images have been posted in automation scenario document only for ease of reference, in usual cases one should refrain from doing this in a running test automation project, because UI can undergo changes!
