Quim Gil <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #3 from Quim Gil <[email protected]> --- This list is being proposed as a way to integrate and retain people primarily interested in testing / qa, especially those that are new or are in the periphery. No teams comfortable with the status quo will be encouraged to change their current communication practices because of this list. I wouldn't be too rigid with our own org structure. What is relevant is to keep an outsider's perspective here. For instance, at the beginning Chris was a bit reluctant to include bug triaging under the QA umbrella since he and Andre were in different teams. I convinced them (without much resistance) ;) that people out there don't care: they see that by testing you file bugs, and at some point you have so many that you need to start paying attention to triaging. Something similar can be said about unit testing, continuous integration, etc. Sure, they are very different areas but well, all of them get the primary attention from people that care about the quality of the software we ship. We are seeing many people interested in "testing" from different angles. Some people are current developers willing to learn and discuss more about this topic, best practices, etc. Some are people new to the community that see testing / QA as a way to contribute in technical tasks other than development. We have already little lists for design or analytics, which are proving to be useful for people focusing on those topics and not really comfortable about following the volume of wikitech-l just to find now and then a thread that fits with their core interests. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
