Vanguard Testing

3:00-3:50

Christine, Xiaoli

From the SILS Chairs meeting:

1. FG Chairs will be spearheading systemwide testing, and will be requesting VG instance accounts for non-VG FG members as needed on this form https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TdOXbR7E13UUZPWsx2NYkfP-jCkNq3TDgsmxZQYOKQo/edit#gid=0

   1. FG members who are from VG campuses will have accounts at their home campus in addition to any necessary non-VG accounts.

2. All accounts will be given “admin” level privileges in the appropriate modules, unless instructed otherwise.

3. VG campuses are targeting early October for adding non-VG members/guest accounts. They want to give local testers a chance to run tests before giving out guest accounts.

   1. One possible work-around for this is for FG members in the VG to run testing for FG test scenarios.

FG testing:

• Xiaoli’s testing template: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZuDgH9Z952ZZA4utwsZx0yMg8NG_HV3viD7gQAcOzcQ/edit#gid=0

  • The PPC Steering Committee would like to have all groups complete documenting their testing scenarios by Aug. 28. If it's necessary, the SC will meet with individual groups to prioritize their testing cases after Aug. 28.

  • How long does each FG estimate testing will take? a few hours, a few days, 1 week, more?

• ICs are interested in inviting FGs to present their test plans at an IC meeting (not sure if any action has been taken yet on this..)
