[Geoserver-devel] Pre-release testing checklist

I created a spreadsheet as a checklist for testing GeoServer. It covers most areas (everything in the web interface) but needs some more added to it.
It is an attachment on this page: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDOC/Pre-Release+Testing+Walkthrough

It should probably be gone through once for each OS, I will do it for windows, if someone can do it for Unix and Mac. I know it is boring and tedious, but it should be done before 1.3 goes gold.

Sweet, I think a formal test plan is a great idea. Its a little less ad-hoc then "hand-testing".

However, I dont see much content on the page?

My bad, i missed the attached spreadsheet. Any chance this can just become a table on the actual page? It would be a little easier for users to update and contribute with it inline.

There isn't so much on the page, it is all in the excel file attached to it.
We should probably add some more. I would like to, when we think the checklist is nearly complete, have it displayed on the page.

Yeh I will try to translate it over. I hope it is printable in the wiki form.
Any ideas if confluence can import spreadsheets and display them? I might be asking too much :stuck_out_tongue: But it would be a cool feature.
