XO Roll Call: Sign up for XO Testing Teams!

[Steven Salevan]

Greetings fellow XO testers,
It appears that with the new GNOME build the XO has reached a testable 
state so it's time to start pulling together testing groups.  We will be 
focusing on 6 major feature areas over the next two weeks:

 - Performance
 - Built-in Camera
 - Power Management
 - Networking
 - Display
 - Audio

Since there are ~100 volunteers participating in this project, we 
realized that some structure might help to both resolve leadership 
confusion and streamline the test process; hence, we're organizing 
testing teams for each individual feature area.  There are two major 
roles in each team:  that of the team lead and that of the team member.

As a team lead, you will have several responsibilities:
 - Coordinate your team's testing efforts
 - Establish a time for and lead regular team IRC meetings
 - Establish some _very_ basic focus point stubs for your feature area 
on your Wiki page (for a good example, check out 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestPlans/XO_Performance)
 - Report testing status bi-weekly for your respective feature area page 
on the Wiki
 - Ensure that all defects/bugs are filed and those that are already 
filed block the FedoraOnXo tracker bug

If you'd like to be a team lead, send me an e-mail (ssalevan at redhat.com) 
with your top 3 feature area interests.  These roles will be meted out 
on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure and get those e-mails 
out as soon as you can.  I'll be heading up the Audio team (known 
henceforth as 'The Phil Collins Experience'), so if you thoroughly enjoy 
both the production and generation of sound, you should join my team.  :-P

As a team member, you will have the following responsibilities:
 - Fill in the stubs that your team lead has provided on your feature 
Wiki page with test cases and append your e-mail to each one you create
 - Test each test case you create on each new Fedora XO build
 - If a test case fails, file a Bugzilla (for a refresher on how to do 
this, visit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugsAndFeatureRequests)
 - If you file a Bugzilla, notify your team lead and update the test 
case on the Wiki
 - Attend IRC team meetings
 - Come up with a kickass name for your team

So!  If you are part of the XO testing project, you should sign up for 
one of the groups here:

If you have any questions or comments regarding this new process, jlaska 
or I would be glad to answer them.  Otherwise, fire up your new XO, load 
up the new build, and start rocking out some tests!
