Session Title

Optimizing Release Testing

Session Leader

Tim Riley

Summary

There has been some frustration and confusion about what is tested when and why. This is a chance to get the issues on the table and explore options.

Agenda

• How we currently test milestone releases
• Ideas about more pre-testing or releasing to the community and then completing the testing
• Where we can get the biggest bang for the buck by automating portions of the testing
• Focusing testing on key areas changed using exploratory testing
• Quality metrics? This is a goal for Q4!
