Moodle 2.8 is due for release in four weeks from now, so it's time to run another Quality Assurance (QA) testing cycle, starting today: Moodle 2.8 QA. The list of over 400 tests includes tests covering new features and improvements in Moodle 2.8.

If you'd like to have a play with Moodle 2.8 on our QA testing site and at the same time help with QA testing, please read the QA testing guide and send me a message if you'd like to be added to the testers group in the Moodle tracker. New testers are always welcome. smile

We're aiming for a 100% pass rate of QA tests within the next three weeks, so all help is much appreciated!

Helen,

"Nobody" is tests assigned to nobody. But, so, who is "other"?

"Other" is other people assigned to less than 9 issues. If you click on the Maximize icon of the stats pie you will see the full list with the names of those "other" people. They are the "minor testers", I am in that list.blush

Hi Clay,

To someone with a very basic knowledge of (British) English, "on Fall Break" sounds as if you fell and broke something (e.g. a leg), so that now you have to stay at home and have plenty time on your hands for testing Moodle.wink

Enjoy your Autumn holidays, and happy Moodle testing,

Joseph

Being a British English speaker,  I use Autumn and avoid the use of "Fall". However, the one time when I find it really valuable is in the phrase Spring Forward, Fall  back as I can never remember the way the clocks go twice a year, and this does helpsmile

OK - back to QA testing now!

Thanks Martha and others who have messaged me. You're all included in the testers group.

We're now up to 410 issues (91%) passed after 10 days testing. Great work everyone and special thanks to those of you who have been running lots of tests. smile

If you've not yet tried running a test and would like to explore a new feature in Moodle 2.8, scroll to the bottom of MDLQA-7170 where you'll find a few new tests.

PS Thanks Ben for the pom poms!

Hello Everyone,

I've come along and spoilt the 100% passed party. I'm sorry - i'll bring presents to the next one..

I've just integrated some improvements to the quiz editing pages (MDL-47368) and we'd appreciate some extra testing with this new change. It means that the rearranging of questions and other edit operations works without page reloads and generally is the last remaining piece of the wider quiz editing improvements in 2.8.

There are ~10 quiz related QA tests which are available for testing again.

thanks!

You are right Séverin - the last of the quiz-related QA tests that Dan reset was run and passed today. Thus, assuming no more tests are reset, our 2.8 QA testing is now complete. Many thanks again to everyone who helped.
