== Testing teams ==

The Activities on the XO have been developed by community members. Many of them are not well documented and there may not be much information on how to use them; so this testing can be described as 'Descriptive Testing', where you are helping to provide and/or correct the wiki pages that describe how an activity works. If you want to help, please refer to the '''[[Community_Testing|Community Testing]]''' page for more details.

===Testing at OLPC===

====Test Plans====
To report results from a set of test cases, add a line to the appropriate table in the test case pages below with a quick summary; and include details, including setup and test team, on the talk page.

* [[8.1.1_Features_to_Test|8.1.1 Features to be Tested]]
* [[Update.1|Update.1 test cases]]
* [[Ship2.2|Ship2.2 test cases]] - complete
* User-focused test plans:
*: User-focused test plans are being developed for all the basic features of the laptop, for many of the activities, and for the interaction with the school server, collaboration, connectivity, etc. Please follow the [[User Stories Testing|User-Focused Test Plans]] page to read, review, and help create test plans.
