Hi, Unearthing this old thread as today I stumbled on the issue that Ismael reported. It looks like this was never fixed!
The "Test Plan" section was only added in the KIP-template page [0] and not in the actual KIP-template template [1] that is used when doing `Create -> KIP-Template` or by clicking on `Create KIP` on https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Improvement+Proposals I think this new section makes sense and it's very easy to add it to the actual template. Before doing it, I just want to ping the dev list to see if anybody has suggestions or concerns since this was discussed many years ago now. 0: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-Template 1: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/templates2/viewpagetemplate.action?entityId=54329345&key=KAFKA Thanks, Mickael On Fri, May 27, 2016 at 10:55 AM Ismael Juma <ism...@juma.me.uk> wrote: > > Hi Gwen, > > Thanks for adding the "Test Plans" section.
