- Where is QA? I mean, I know somewhere somebody is
probably doing some
sort of testing, but having worked as a QA engineer I haven't seen
anything
in MW that would resemble proper and traditional testing (excluding the
unit testing). Where's the list of test cases that need to be performed
for
each release? How can one make new test cases and add them? etc. Maybe
this
already exists, but if it does it's definitely not documented well
enough.
Disclaimer: I am one of the QA people.
We are testing all the time, but there are just 3-4 of us, as far as I
know. We are looking for help. As far as I know, there will be "Write your
first Test Scenario in plain English" event[1] on the week of March 11, if
you would like to help.
Feel free to add features/scenarios to the backlog[2] in the meantime. Let
me know if you need help with that. (Test results for our browser
automation project are available[3] to everybody, by the way). As an
example, Siebrand provided a few features and scenarios[4] today and Chris
and I have automated them[5][6]. (I have just noticed that the tests that
we worked on today all failed because we make a mistake. It will be fixed
probably on Monday.)
