Generate a list of needed testing documentation, guides, tutorials, and execution instructions #39

Closed AMZN-Dk closed 1 year ago

AMZN-Dk commented 2 years ago

This issue will be the starting point for the Testing SIG to identify test ware artifacts which are needed to be hosted in a public facing location such as this repository or the O3DE.org documentation guides.

Examples of test ware that are needed include:

  1. How to run automated tests locally
  2. How to write automated tests for each component or test suite
  3. How to execute user workflow testing manually prior to submitting work

The output of this will be to turn each needed item into its own issue to be assigned and prioritized for publication.

We have some existing documentation already that should be factored in when making this list.

Recent call-out from @tonybalandiuk in discord that may be relevant to process documentation:

in the retrospective for the 22.05.0 release, someone mentioned "More regression / adhoc testing early in process" as something we should change. Wanted to mention that here. Our next release is in October 2022. As we get closer to that release it might make sense to broadcast the testing plans so everyone in the project understands what is/isn't being tested.

We have already started this process on the individual SIG level, workflows and automated test instructions are being generated and published in each SIG repository. For identifying future missing testware, we will allow contributors to cut bugs or issues to identify the docs which need to be written.

We will not be maintaining a master list of the required docs in SIG Testing, however we will be having a master list of published testware such as https://github.com/o3de/sig-testing/blob/main/manual_test_guides.md
