Also increased and explicit awareness about release dates and versions
should help stabilizing what we put out.
We started last week and I think it's going pretty well.

We're currently lining up work around improving our development, testing,
and release processes. In fact, work on improving our browser testing
infrastructure has already begun [0]. This work is all about reducing the
size of a critical feedback loop: from a developer submitting a patch to a
bug being reported. Taking a day every sprint to QA each others work on
the beta cluster isn't ideal but it does help us to reduce the size of the
feedback loop until we're finished improving our workflows.
Here's what I sent out to the team members in the QA Day invite:
According to the deployment schedule [1], our latest and greatest code
will be hitting group 0 wikis on a Tuesday. I
strongly encourage you to
take the time to test a few common and uncommon workflows across the myriad
features new and old and report any bugs you uncover before the train
starts rolling. You might also want to take a look at a few of the group 0
wikis on Tuesday too while our development environments don't replicate
that of production. If you find the time after all of this, then perhaps
you could try translating one or two workflows into browser tests (!!!)
