Overall Test Goals
The goals for testing the SmartSite v2.3 upgrade are:
- to ensure that current UCDavis modifications to the "plain vanilla" Sakai version 2.3 are merged properly and produce the desired results/functionality,
- to ensure that new features and functionality introduced in version 2.3 are functional and produce the desired results,
- to identify new issues or changes to functionality that may influence UCD's decision to upgrade and/or require notification of faculty and other users.
Testing is organized into the following areas:
#Upgrade Tests - UCD-specific Functional Modifications
#Upgrade Tests - Sakai v2.3 Enhancements
#Upgrade Tests - UCD-specific Look 'n' Feel
#Post-upgrade Implementations
Testing Schedule
Testing will begin after a V2.3 SmartSite is available on sakai-test.ucdavis.edu or another server specified by the team.
A testing schedule will be posted once the details are worked out.
