Testing strategy information from Tom on next steps for MFTF and Special Projects:

  • Going forward immediate wins: bugs resolved, locating critical bugs, adding test coverage, and managing skipped tests.
  • Bigger picture: requirements coverage, test scope, cohesive list of tests, catalog and cart critical coverage, test stability and tech debt especially with updates from MFTF, Selinium, CLI, etc.
  • Key pillars bigger push in getting automated tests in with Community: helping build tests, getting tests added to repositories, and much more.
  • Events will be promoted on how to get started with MFTF and testing in projects for issues and PRs.
