Discussion

3.5 Regression and Release Candidate Test Plan

• Do the members of the Bug Triage team know that they are on the team? (Specifically thinking of Craig and Ashraf)

  • No, they don't.

  • The question now is who should be on the team

    • JSI: Elias?

    • Ona: Antonate?

    • Parrot/MtG: The Joanna's

• Is meeting twice a day really required? Can this be a morning meeting and an afternoon check in on Slack?

  • This appears to be what we're already doing

• Do not use the Performance Metrics page to enter perf data, use this spreadsheet instead:

Schedule

  • Thursday 22nd, Friday 23rd: Available team members (not on vacation) start testing

  • Friday: Maybe bug triage with people available

  • Mon 26th-Fri 30th: Testing, bug fixing, triage, etc

Responsibilities

• Sam to take lead with testing, especially while much of the team is in Zambia

• Wes is "Release Coordinator", will need to coordinate work once back

  • Will need to ensure that the expectations for this role are clear

• Release Notes:

  • Who will write release notes? Should we separate them by section: Mary Jo - features, Wes - performance testing, Sam - manual testing, Sebastian - functional testing?
