| |
| | |
| # Select a test from the [http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDLQA-150 Moodle 2.0 QA Cycle 1] list (or the [http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDLQA/fixforversion/10422 Moodle 2.0 QA Cycle 1 overview])
| |
| # Using either the [http://qa.moodle.net/ Moodle QA Testing Site] or your own test site running the latest Moodle 2.0 version, perform each of the steps listed in the test
| |
| # Choose an appropriate workflow action:
| |
| #* ''Pass'' - Test runs perfectly :-)
| |
| #* ''Fail'' - Indicate in a comment where the test fails and include a MDL issue link to the report of the problem ([http://tracker.moodle.org/secure/CreateIssue!default.jspa creating a new issue] if necessary)
| |
| #* ''Obsolete'' - Test is no longer relevant in the current Moodle version (unlikely for Moodle 2.0, but may occur when testing Moodle 2.1)
| |
| | |
| If in doubt whether to pass a test, give it a fail and perhaps ask someone else to have a look by adding them as a watcher then adding a comment.
| |
| | |
| Note: Always use today's version of Moodle 2.0 for testing. The [http://qa.moodle.net/ Moodle QA Testing Site] is updated daily.

Quality Assurance (QA) tests look at the functionality of Moodle from a user's point of view.
Real users systematically try each feature in Moodle and test that it works in the current version of the Moodle code.
These tests are repeated in series of cycles, usually just before major releases. Developers and volunteer testers communicate through Tracker on what they find. More information can be found in the Development page also called QA testing.
