Contributor Status

  • Name

Roundtable

General
  • QA Automation (recruiting) video
    • Finalize details (please send Henrik the presentation proposals so we can draft what we want to say)
    • Re: presentation, who-what-how-why is great outline, also how do people get involved?
Issues

    • Easy to get good basic functionality from CouchApp, but flexibility concerns?
    • Henrik can amplify when back from CouchCamp
Other
  • Tab Candy Automation?
    • Goal w/ strong impact on current testing strategy
    • Good group project for team, can we achieve by end of WW?
    • Anthony: in-litmus tab candy + tab candy automation synergize well
