Hello,
In an earlier FLP Meeting on 5th February 2008 [1], a proposal was put forward to create
a set of
test-cases that would aid in testing the Translated User Interface, prior to a release. A
basic
outline of the proposal would include:
# Identification of the essential packages that would require User Interface testing
# Identifying the testing areas (e.g. translation context, widget length etc.)
# Listing specific and easy-to-follow test-cases for the testing areas, that can be used
by the
Translation teams
# Test Result collection mechanism, that would help the Translation teams to share/archive
the
information
Since, Quality Testing is a highly specialised domain, we would require inputs from
Subject Matter
Experts before a plan can be chalked out. Existing testing mechanisms used by the
Translation Teams
can also be listed and based upon inputs we all could determine the feasibility of the
proposal.
There was a /L10N/Testing Page listed earlier, but I can't seem to find it. vpv, can
you point out
the correct page please, if it still exists somewhere. :-)
Thanks
cheers
Runa
