QATeam - Introduction

[Nicholas Skaggs]

JR, welcome to the team! Let me provide you with some links to 
opportunities that exist.

You can break down our work into contributing testcases, or contributing 
results for those testcases :-)

For contributing testcases, since you have programming skills, check out 
this page: 
http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/cookbook/mobile/how-to-write-autopilot-tests/. 
Look interesting and cool? It's called autopilot and we could use more 
testcases written! Let me know if this interests you!

That said, it's not a bad idea to try contributing some test results 
first before diving into contributing testcases. For learning about 
contributing test results, testing a daily iso is a great first start 
for learning how to submit test results and use the QATracker. Follow 
the tutorial:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Walkthrough

 From there, look at dedicating a machine (real or virtual!) to testing 
the development release. You can install and update your machine as 
saucy is developed, and you can use it for testing as we track packages 
throughout the cycle. We call this cadence testing and we're currently 
inbetween weeks. Each testing week is announced and has a different 
focus for an application for you to test.

Here's a few other links to look at to help you understand what we do 
and how we work as a team:
