Article feedback/Testing June 2012

On Saturday 9 June 2012 from 10AM-noon Pacific time, WMF will be collaborating on a testing event with OpenHatch for the Article Feedback Tool Version 5.

This follows our successful testing event with Weekend Testing Americas on 5 May where we validated the new WMF strategy of frequent deployments of MediaWiki, and will follow roughly the same format.

As with the WTA event, the timing for the OpenHatch event is excellent. On 9 June, most of the public features of AFTv5 will be available. The AFTv5 project itself will be winding down, and our testing event will be a great opportunity to discover any issues or problems while the AFTv5 project is still fully staffed and prepared to address them.

We'll be publishing details of the Test Plan and such in the very near future.

Topics, Goals, & Outcomes


Some goals for the event: Stretch Goals - if we make these, we'll be thrilled
 * 1) About n people are able to successfully participate (defined as: arrive in the communication channel, follow our directions to test the Article Feedback Tool, and understand whether they've found a bug or not)
 * 2) Approximately n legitimate bugs filed (even if some of them are duplicates or need to be moved to other issue queues)
 * 1) n participants motivated to start editing (what?)

Here are the things we aim to focus on for our day of testing:


 * Article Feedback Tool, version 5

Volunteers

 * Chris McMahon
