Hi devs,
I am +1 for this strategy because it makes QA job more visible and more
easy to see. Instead of having a separate page on Incubator or on
another Wiki, everything goes to JIRA, which is much more easy to follow
than other sources because it is also a centralized source of bugs.
I am also +1 for what Marius said, IMO it is the most natural approach.
Thank you Vincent for proposing this, I think this has benefits on all
sides and eases the work of devs.
Regards,
Sorin B.

Hi devs,
Sorin and Silvia are helping us in term of improving the quality of platform/XE/XEM by
systematically testing milestones/RCs/final versions.
They've started a TestReports space on
xwiki.org where he's going to put all his
test reports from now on:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/
In those reports, when a test fails they'll need to create a JIRA issue (instead of
pointing to a page on the incubator). This would make it much easier for reporting
purpose, to see all the issues they've created and for us to see all issues found by
the Q&A team.
The problem is that our current JIRA strategy is to NOT create jira issue for issues that
haven't been "released" already (instead the strategy is to comment in
them).
I'm proposing to relax this rule in the following manner:
* Allow to have "affects" and "fix for" be the same value in JIRA
* Automatically exclude from our release notes issues where "affects" ==
"fixfor"
In addition IMO it would be good for Sorin/Silvia to:
* Link the newly created jira to an existing jira
WDYT?
+1 provided it is used as a last resort, after:
* making sure the issue is not present in the latest release
* making sure there aren't any automated tests failing for the same
reason (-> devs are already notified)
* asking on IRC or mailing list if there were recent changes to the
module affected by the issue (-> comment on existing issue)
Thanks,
Marius
Thanks
