Quality Assurance Milestone¶
Due Date¶
Sunday, April 14
Grading: Team
Description¶
Each team will get a copy of another team's project and do extensive testing of it. You will be added to the other team's github project as a read-only member which will let you create new Issues on their repo. Add all the bugs you find on the project as github issues. The other team will label them.
A-teams will find at least a dozen bugs, typically, and clearly explain how to reproduce the bug.
To capture screenshots, videos, and make animated gifs, I recommend monosnap. Free for macs and windows.
Deliverables¶
When testing the other group's project you need to:
- Add every bug you find to their Issues list. Use screenshots whenever useful. Explain clearly how to reproduce the problem.
- When you are done testing, tell the other team.
When being tested you will assign labels to each issue the testers submit. Namely:
- Add the qa label to all their Issues. This is a new label to help us distinguish the other teams' Issues from yours.
- If it is a bug, give it the bug label. Add it to the 1.0 Milestone.
- If it is not exactly a bug, but something that really should be added, you can add an issue about it with the enhancement label.
- If it is a duplicate of an existing Issue, write a comment pointing to the Issue you want to keep, add the built-in duplicate label and close it.
- If you decide that fixing it is outside the scope of the project then add the wontfix label, explain why, and close it.
