| Robert Hensing (roberth) | awesome! Great to see y'all this soon after announcing the room. Let's get this going!
What do you think deserves attention wrt testing?
Do you have any questions about testing? | 14:23:19 |
| @davidak:matrix.org | what is the scope of this? package and module tests, manual testing, ...? i would like to have a QA team and contribute there. is this similar? | 14:25:39 |
| @davidak:matrix.org | i do a lot of QA work, but at times it can feel as if i'm the only one. so i would like better coordination and community (but can't organize it myself) | 14:27:52 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | For this room I had mostly automated testing in mind. I think a team that performs manual testing would be a slightly different audience(?) | 14:31:33 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | what sort of QA work is it that you refer to? | 14:31:56 |
|  Winter (she/her) joined the room. | 14:32:17 |
| @davidak:matrix.org | i guess everything. improve quality with any method
i established the term "package tests" in the manual, i do manual tests before release, i test prs like the gui installer, i test pantheon as part of it's maintainer team, i review prs, i create automated test, i improve and extend the manual, i try to establish a vision for nixpkgs, ..... | 14:36:31 |
| @davidak:matrix.org | i professionally work in QA and our team does manual tests for release und automate testing where possible. i think that belongs in one team, to have a common goal. there can still be people that only work in one area and maybe separate chat rooms if it helps decluttering, but we should coordinate the efforts more | 14:42:14 |
