  • We went over the high level schedule: We are one to two weeks behind where we want to be, but Quanta is 2 weeks behind in MP production, so we are ok right now.
  • There are many blocking bugs. This weeks big push is bug fixing. So the test group needs to take builds, load them, get through the smoke test, and write up some notes on things that aren't working well in the Test Group Release Notes.
  • Alex is going to create a test plan for the International laptops in my office. He has already found some problems so we suspect we will have to do more detailed testing on these laptops.
  • When creating test plans, Zack recommends the Record (or Camera) test plan as a template.


Trial-3

  • Zack will act as the lead for Trial-3, to help ensure all our test plans have coverage for both updating and execution. Please send him the list of test plans you want to update; and he will make suggestions to the rest of us to try ensure that all of the plans get covered.
  • Think about the most important activities and capabilities of the laptop and if there is no test plan placeholder, please send that to Zack and me and we will try to get the placeholder into the test plans page.
  • Here is a link to the test plans we are focused on: Test Plans
