Hey folks! So I had an action item from the meeting on Monday:
"adamw to draft up changes to the test day process docs to
accommodate
test days being on any day, test day co-ordinator to ensure they're
balanced out"
In fact, though, looking at the wiki, it only really made sense to
make
a couple of minor changes for this cycle. So I just went ahead and
did
it, since they're so small:
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=QA/Test_Days&diff=325623&oldid=307684
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=QA/Test_Days/Create&diff=325625&oldid=146399
For F20, it'll be a bit more complex, because we'll want to create
the
initial Test Day calendar without creating 'slots' each Thursday, but
somehow make it friendly enough for people proposing test days to
pick
days, and for the co-ordinator to fill out the schedule. But we can
burn
that bridge when we come to it. :) As F19 test days are mostly
scheduled
already, I don't think it makes sense to poke the calendar too much;
we
can just let people know when they request test days that they can
pick
any date.
Btw. speaking about schedules of Test Days - other teams (mostly
Ambassadors) asked me to add it to the main schedule (so they can help
with marketing of Test Days etc.). Looking on history of Test Days, it
starts right after Feature Freeze (pretty clear) and ends with GA (does
it make sense to run Test Days right before release?). In case of no
objections, I'll add it to the main schedule (and even with end around
GA - hope it will be possible;-).
As discussed at the meeting, sounds fine to me. It doesn't usually make
an awful lot of sense to run a test day right before GA, but there are
cases where it is reasonable (say, we want to check how well a new
feature really works for documentation and post-release update
purposes), and the practical consideration that what's 'right before
release' when we set the test day schedule may well be 'three weeks
before release' once we actually get there ;)
