Hello Mr. Joe.

I noticed you put a lot of tests in [[Testing#Testing_at_OLPC]].

Here's a tip: use <nowiki>----</nowiki> to separate items with horizontal rules. If you use <nowiki>====...</nowiki>, MediaWiki thinks you're entering a section heading.

You created tables for some of the tests.
FYI, I'm helping [[User:Femslade]] and charlie to automatically query for test case semantic information (e.g. "All tests for Stream 'Joyride'), and display the test info in a useful format. I hope this will mean info doesn't have to be copied and pasted around so much.

The "Testing" page and lists of tests

Hello Mr. Joe.

I noticed you put a lot of tests in Testing#Testing_at_OLPC.

Here's a tip: use ---- to separate items with horizontal rules. If you use ====..., MediaWiki thinks you're entering a section heading.

You created tables for some of the tests. FYI, I'm helping User:Femslade and charlie to automatically query for test case semantic information (e.g. "All tests for Stream 'Joyride'), and display the test info in a useful format. I hope this will mean info doesn't have to be copied and pasted around so much.
