Ideas for testers (what needs testing?)

[Martin Langhoff]

[resend - now via the list properly]

This Sunday I will be hosting a small Happy Dev House event in
Wellington (NZ) and an ex-colleague who is a top-notch professional
software tester will be coming around with possibly some more testers.

Are there areas or builds that needs special focus? I have given Shaun
links to the Testing pages in the wiki, and what we have available is

 - 1 B4
 - 1 MP
 - As many qemu VMs as we want ;-)

Should they go through the smoketest on joyride? Or faster? Note that
they are new to the XO+Sugar, though familiar with linux.

For testing on the XOs I need to know what image they'll need to have
on the XOs so I can prepare them beforehand ;-)

(Of course I'll bring an XS with me to the event ;-) but it doesn't
have that much "test surface" specially for new testers.)

cheers,
