Would like provide some perspective on testing efforts done. All test plans, results, automation has been posted to community and I took the data from that only[1].
Thanks for raising the issues around testing before code check-in. This would help in all fronts esp frontloading quality. Enabling development to run tests require good test suites and community has been helping with patches to fix failing test cases and adding new test suites. I hope this would be taken seriously and feature owners check in test code religiously. -New test plans developed and posted on cwiki Around 5500+ test cases ran manually [1] Another 2000+ test cases ran through automation across all HV, with multiple configurations [2] - Logged defects and verified defects. Created 2200 , resolved 1850, verified 1650 Defects. - several have helped to run automation 6 configurations for BVTs with Xen, KVM and VMWare on various configurations and 6 more additional configurations are being run for regression covering HVs and various configurations [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/QA+-+4.2+Test+Execution+Results [2]https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/ACS+4.2+Automation+Results+-+Baseline Hope these discussions would help to put focus on quality and bring in contributors for automation efforts. There are several features which people can just pick up and run with it. Even today there are several automation patches pending on review board. If people can pick these up and help to review , fix and submit it would help everyone. -----Original Message----- From: Daan Hoogland [mailto:daan.hoogl...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2013 1:48 PM To: dev Subject: Re: [VOTE] Apache CloudStack 4.2.0 (fourth round) Why can't we cover every use case, Marcus.
