The meeting started on Slack here.

@hellofromtonya made a summary of last week in Test:

  • Team agreed to first prioritize getting the @covers reviewed and committed as quickly as possible
    • @costdev and Tonya planned to do a deep review of @pbearne‘s PR
    • Then 6.0 took priority last week as Colin joined the 6.0 Release Squad
  • @Puja‘s e2e test was committed
  • Test Handbook – Team agreed to plan out how transform the handbook into a tool that empowers contributors to quickly get started testing.
  • PHPUnit Test Suite Restructuring – Team agreed to plan out how to restructure

@Ugyen asked if there’ll be a 5.9.3 release before 6.0, @audrasjb confirmed 5.9.3 release in the upcoming weeks.

@pbearne refreshed the @covers PR

@hellofromtonya agreed to move forward with the batch approach to make a review and commit process easier for this big PR

@tykoted joined his first meeting

@hellofromtonya reminded about the need of having one or two people that would lead the Test Handbook project. Together with @boniu91 agreed that summary post will be a good place to promote this opportunity.

@justinahinon described that moving e2e tests to Playwright in Gutenberg is going quite well. He’s also working together with @juhise on moving existing tests to Playwright

@hellofromtonya reminded why we are in the process of switching to the Playwright

@pbearne offered Tugboat as a tool that could help the Test Team, he’ll provide more details soon.

Test Team is looking for a volunteer or two as lead(s) to shepherd Test Handbook forward. If you’re interested in this role, please leave a meesage.
