Write simple test scripts for basic regression testing on updated code #121

Someone on the team may already have experience in this, or want to gain experience, or some combination thereof...

We've got automated testing set up but we also need a set of instructions for manual testing e.g. make sure that sample text still produces good (as defined by...) results on the second screen with images from all the expected sources (as listed in...) and appropriate query words, some basic accessibility tests, etc, with items for both functional and style issues. There's more information at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_script (of course) but we can probably also pool together sample scripts or more background information.

It'd be good to have this for the push to live - perhaps people testing on dev now could start some? @mfrazer what do you think?

@mialondon by test script do you mean a documented set of steps for a person to go through on the site to verify that everything is working normally?

Ah...I see now. I should have clicked on that wikipedia link sooner. I can try to jot something down as I'm testing, but I will want to flesh it out more for testing the November release. Regardless, I re-assigned the ticket to me.
