Sakai 10 QA04 Testing
Sakai 10 qa4 Testing corresponds to the first round of QA testing for Sakai 10
Sakai 10 Test Fest
Sakai 10 - QA04
QA04 testing is now active. We are targeting one or two QA releases away from our first release candidate. We are releasing a QA about every 2 weeks.
The job of QA testers is to break Sakai. We want to find as many bugs as possible so that they can get fixed before a community release.
QA04 server - Longsight QA server more expected soon
Nightly trunk server - for verifying Jiras so that they can be merged into the Sakai 10 branch. Please note: the nightly server is refreshed every 4 hours starting at midnight Eastern daylight time, and all data will be lost. Please time your testing accordingly.
How to use Google docs for testing (generally)
How to do deep regression testing (as opposed to do-it-yourself, check list or JIRA testing, which may be more self explanatory)
