RC test: pH Scale 1.5.0-rc.1

[pixelzoom]

@KatieWoe, @kathy-phet, @arouinfar, ph-scale/1.5.0-rc.1 is ready for RC testing.

Document issues in https://github.com/phetsims/ph-scale/issues and link to this issue.

This is a full RC test, including general and PhET-iO features, but not a11y features. This is the first PhET-iO version of this sim, so there is no previous version with which to compare.

Assigning to @kathy-phet and @KatieWoe for prioritization.

General RC Test

What to Test

• Click every single button.
• Test all possible forms of input.
  • Test all mouse/trackpad inputs.
  • Test all touchscreen inputs.
• If there is sound, make sure it works.
• Make sure you can't lose anything.
• Play with the sim normally.
• Try to break the sim.
• Test all query parameters on all platforms. (See QA Book
  for a list of query parameters.)
• Download HTML on Chrome and iOS.
• Make sure the iFrame version of the simulation is working as intended on all platforms.
• Make sure the XHTML version of the simulation is working as intended on all platforms.
• Complete the test matrix.
• Don't forget to make sure the sim works with Legends of Learning.
• Test the Game Up harness on at least one platform.
• Check this LoL
  spreadsheet and notify AR or AM if it not there.
• If this is rc.1 please do a memory test.
• When making an issue, check to see if it was in a previously published version
• Try to include version numbers for browsers
• If there is a console available, check for errors and include them in the Problem Description.
• As an RC begins and ends, check the sim repo. If there is a maintenance issue, check it and notify developers if
  there is a problem.

PhET-iO RC Test

What to Test

• Make sure that public files do not have password protection. Use a private browser for this.
• Make sure that private files do have password protection. Use a private browser for this.
• Make sure standalone sim is working properly.
• Make sure the wrapper index is working properly.
• Make sure each wrapper is working properly.
• Launch the simulation in Studio with ?stringTest=xss and make sure the sim doesn't navigate to youtube
• For newer PhET-iO wrapper indices, save the "basic example of a functional wrapper" as a .html file and open it. Make sure the simulation loads without crashing or throwing errors.
• Load the login wrapper just to make sure it works. Do so by adding this link from the sim deployed root:

  /wrappers/login/?wrapper=record&validationRule=validateDigits&&numberOfDigits=5&promptText=ENTER_A_5_DIGIT_NUMBER
  

  Further instructions in QA Book
• Conduct a recording test to Metacog, further instructions in the QA Book. Do this for iPadOS + Safari and one other random platform.
• Conduct a memory test on the stand alone sim wrapper (rc.1).
• Test one platform combination with ?phetioDebug on the Studio and State wrapper.
• If Pan/Zoom is supported, make sure that it works when set with PhET-iO State.
• Test that the sim works offline:
  • Go to https://phet-dev.colorado.edu/html/phet-scale/1.5.0-rc.1/phet-io/ph-scale-phet-io-1.5.0-rc.1.zip
  • download it
  • unzip it to a spot locally
  • Open index.html by double clicking it on your desktop or in a finder-view.
  • It should look like the standalone version of the sim in PhET-iO brand.

LoL, GameUp Harness, and both memory tests all look ok.

Thank you @KatieWoe and QA team.

This RC test resulted in 2 PhET-iO issues, 1 common-code issue, and 1 sim-specific issue.

We'll need another RC test cycle, and I'll leave this issue open until that issue is created.
