Extras-testing QA Checklist and Quarantine Period
http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing/QA_Checklist
Feedback please. This checklist is common for developers (before promnoting their applications to extras-testing) and betatesters (before giving them farewell to reach Extras). It would be good to have more specific instructions to measure performace and power management, since sometimes the problems are not obvious specially in only one session or even a couple of days of casual testing. |

Are the promotion/demotion criteria shown there up-to-date (10 days, karma >=10) ? At least I can't see voting down an app actually resulting in a karma loss of 4. The pages also seem to be a bit redundant. |

Re: extras-testing QA Checklist
There must be a way to discern intended from buggy compromises in performance.
One thing is when one app of dedicated use takes a lot of CPU to perform an action understood and desired by the user (render a 3D graph) and another is to have some widget scrolling in such a buggy way that the system becomes sluggish. And no matter what, Octave just paused in some inactive window should let the system work as usual, 5 minutes same as 5 days after booting the program. Icon optional for CLI programs sounds reasonable. |
Re: extras-testing QA Checklist
I think we should provide a standard icon representing the command line that can be used by all CLI applications. Something simple like a zoomed out black screen with a command prompt, for example.

I had forgotten the optification. Please check: http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing...root_partition
Can someone explain in that section how to look whether an installed package is optified or not? |
Re: extras-testing QA Checklist
Tero (I think) started dumping his thoughts at http://wiki.maemo.org/Talk:Extras-testing already - would be good to merge them.

Re: extras-testing QA Checklist
Added a section about non-blockers based on comments read from QA testers these days.
