G1G1: What can we do to help?

  • Caryl's Test Jam idea

Activity testing instructions

Feedback on How to test an Activity? Volunteers to help build/test/maintain?

Excellent point brought up by Caryl and Greg via email: We are building a community of testers who are dedicated to keeping their individual Activities well-tested and properly functioning, and one part of this is making sure that the documentation matches with the product under test, and that they're both ridiculously good. ("High-quality" might be the, ah, more proper term.) The product under test includes documentation.

Activity testing automation

Mission/scope/focus of Community testing

What are our goals? See Community Testing#Introduction for the current strawman. After we agree on goals, we can figure out how to measure whether we're meeting them. We're already working towards these goals (or a very similar set), and should continue to - it's just sometimes useful to state these things explicitly.

Action items

  • mchua to talk with sj, kimquirk, and others about what kinds of brib^H^H^H^H resources we can offer to motivate and reward testers, both tangible and intangible. (Deferred from last week on account of SJ and Kim's G1G1 workload.)
