Document how to test with 2GP packages, with GitHub actions

[RupertBarrow]

Feature Type

I'm interested in extensions to existing CumulusCI functionality (e.g., broader applicability of an existing Task or Flow).

Does your feature request solve a current problem?

Your documentation article about testing with second generation packages (https://cumulusci.readthedocs.io/en/stable/2gp_testing.html?highlight=ci_feature_2gp) is great but not totally practical : we need a working example.

Describe the solution you'd like

You provide a great practical example of implementing using Cumulus CI with Github Actions : https://cumulusci.readthedocs.io/en/latest/github_actions.html

It would be great to see this example extended to support the use of testing with 2GP.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'm trying to implement it myself ...

You could also write a follow-up on the excellent Salesforce Architects Medium article "Find Bugs Earlier with Second-Generation Packaging" (https://medium.com/salesforce-architects/find-bugs-earlier-with-second-generation-packaging-f7c7a0b5300a), explaining how to implement this with CCI and Github Actions.

@RupertBarrow I have a full-scale example coming in the very near future that is currently tested and working. I'd be delighted to run it by you.

Hi David, you want me to read your doc through for comments : ok !

Thanks @jstvz ! Maybe you could add a paragraph on testing package upgrade deployments for regressions (regression_org, install_regression and config_regression) ?

Also, maybe point out how these examples differ (or not) between 2GP and Unlocked Packages testing.

Thanks, Rupert
