Hi Everyone,
So I started looking at the packages for the various metas and the list
of bugs already created for testcases.
Now, the majority of the applications used for the metas don't mean a
great deal to me. I /think/ I've got the bulk of them using apt-cache
show and synaptic ;) but I am in no doubt that things will be missing,
there that don't need to be. You get the picture.
What I'd really like is for people to check the wiki [1] I created for a
few things.
1 - do apps with testcase bug missing NEED one - if so please create a
suitable bug ( a link to the right place is on the wiki)
2 - if there is an app on the list - that DOESN'T need a testcase -
please remove it from the list
3 - do apps that have a bug - NEED one - if they don't please mark the
bug INVALID - if you can't then let me know
Next - we'll need to try and set some sort of priority for them all.
I can't do that.
*Writing testcases*
This is the crux of the issue, we can create all the lists we want, we
can create the tracker - but without the testcases that is all
completely pointless.
What I would like to know is who can help to write them, they aren't
particularly complicated to write - but they do need a knowledge of the
application - I could write a testcase for each one in an hour or so -
but all you'd be checking is does it start - does it close :)
So - if you'd like to get involved with pushing this forward - and, like
me have always wondered how you can contribute as you're not a coder,
then *now* is your chance.
It will be a fair bit of work to get them written - but it can be done.
If that is /you, /reply to this mail and we can make a start.
If there is a need to do so I can run a quick IRC session on the basics
of what you'll need to know.
Any questions feel free to ask.
Regards
Elfy
