We have automated source and binary package checking (lintian), automated build testing (thanks to lucas), automated build-time testing (thanks to upstream test suites), automated package install testing (piuparts), automated system install testing (BabelBox), automated font linting (pkg-fonts review) and now automated source code analysis (daca). One thing we currently lack on the automated testing front is automated post-install testing of individual packages and I think also automated post-install system testing. lintian: http://lintian.debian.org/ piuparts: http://piuparts.debian.org/ BabelBox: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/BabelBox pkg-fonts review: http://pkg-fonts.alioth.debian.org/review/ daca: http://qa.debian.org/daca/ On the side of non-automated testing we seem to not have any organised. If you would like to start organising regular Debian testing days, that would be great. Fedora has test days too. I planned to organise something similar for the Debian games team but never got around to it. fedora: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days games parties: http://wiki.debian.org/Games/Parties > I was/am involved with Gnome-Shell for the last couple of years & know most > of the > stack..... I'm sure the Debian GNOME team could use some help processing incoming bugreports and triaging old bug reports. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
