Disclaimer: I am one of the QA people.

We are testing all the time, but there are just 3-4 of us, as far as I
know. We are looking for help. As far as I know, there will be "Write your
first Test Scenario in plain English" event[1] on the week of March 11, if
you would like to help.

Feel free to add features/scenarios to the backlog[2] in the meantime. Let
me know if you need help with that. (Test results for our browser
automation project are available[3] to everybody, by the way). As an
example, Siebrand provided a few features and scenarios[4] today and Chris
and I have automated them[5][6]. (I have just noticed that the tests that
we worked on today all failed because we make a mistake. It will be fixed
probably on Monday.)
