Hello. My name is Joe Murray (@JoeMurray), and I’m the release-manager for the upcoming version of CiviCRM (v4.7.10; scheduled for Wed, July 6th, 2016).

Eileen and I have a few changes this month - we are using a google calendar to track the relevant dates:

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/render?tab=wc&pli=1#main_7%7Cmonth

Or here it is as an included image

And in keeping with our efforts to streamline our technology we are tracking the issues to be tackled in JIRA through this board. We are looking for working groups to sign up to the various sprints on the board and work together to QA the issues in the sprint. We will ensure each group is working with a more experienced lead.

Next steps for you
Check if your PR is on one of the sprint boards. If it is not but you feel it is ready please, make sure there is a JIRA issue for it & in the issue set the fixVersion to 4.7.10 and the status to Quality Assurance

Please register your name against the working groups you are interested in taking part in at https://docs.google.com/a/jmaconsulting.biz/document/d/1UAFOy0gXar_ouzWgOpCdbMA2r6_sIyO_KPiZey9jVDE/edit?usp=sharing

Perhaps you’ve submitted a PR to CiviCRM’s master branch which is still open, or perhaps I've lured you in on some other grounds (mwha-ha-ha!). Thanks for preparing your PR(s) and having some patience with them being merged! Following Tim Otten's (@totten) example, I want to talk a bit about how we can get it merged for the upcoming release.

CiviCRM developers have recently decided to organize stronger peer-review before accepting incremental changes. We believe this will produce higher-quality releases for all our users, but review isn't free -- for every patch submitted, one or more people has to spend more time doing review! We're also aiming to do more user testing through browsers based on our ability to spin up instances including PRs.

Here's the tricky part: you can't review your own patch. You need to partner with someone else who can be objective. Fortunately, there are several developers (like the core team) who understand that peer-review is an important responsibility in our profession -- we just need to get matched-up with like-minded folks. So your part is to review PRs from others, and to respond to suggestions / requests / questions about your PRs.

If you have comments, ideas, or issues about the process, please feel free to reach out through:

Developer chat: https://chat.civicrm.org/civicrm (dev channel on Mattermost)

Thanks!

Could you reach out to the members of the Working Group (WG) that you are facilitating this month as per https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UAFOy0gXar_ouzWgOpCdbMA2r6_sIyO_KPiZey9jVDE/edit

Proposed role description for WG facilitators

The primary role of the facilitator is to ensure that the other people in the group have everything they need to be productive. The facilitator is also likely to do a bunch of QA themselves as a team member but they need to check that the other people in their team know what they need to do and have issues assigned appropriate to their experience. The WG should do some of the following
Contact the people in their team & make themselves known
Suggest tickets the other people might like to QA based on which are most appropriate, and point them to information about what QA involves
Answer questions & provide help to team members
Evaluate the QA done by the other team members (ie. ask questions as to what testing was done if not sure and if the person if inexperienced or the issue is complex provide a second pair of eyes)
Ensure any PRs ready for merge are merged
Ensure all the tickets in the sprint are appropriately updated in JIRA - set to closed if resolved or if they ‘just missed’ the sprint then the next point version. If they are basically stalled they should be unscheduled. Take a look at titles for usefulness too.
Take on some of the harder tickets :-)

Please reach out to me if you are unsure of anything. Also, other core team members may be available to assist through coding or advice, such as @jitendrapurohit or @kurund

Proposed QA goals & priorities

While the process is about QA of PRs that are supposed to be ready for review it is important to try to get the issues actually resolved - so QA may also involved writing tests for the issue and providing an alternate fix - especially if the PR has been lingering a while so general principles
Quality not quantity - not all PRs need to be reviewed - it is better to fully resolve some issues (& preferably add tests) than to add comments provoking action on several
Be aware of the submitter - if an issue has been waiting review for a while the submitter is unlikely to be prepared to make minor adjustments - it may make more sense to do a replacement PR

A key part of improving the stability of our releases comes from testing the RC (release candidate) version in the last 10 days before the final version is published. This is the phase of our release testing where the code is tested on real-world data. By you. But only if you get around to it.

Please help out this week by testing the RC. It's packaged into a tarball for easy use by non-developers the same as any other upgrade or install. Note that if you catch reversion bugs that your site has, we'll be sure to fix it.

4.7.10-rc includes changes from 72 pull requests
https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Apr%20merged%3A%3E%3D2016-07-06
that address 48 issues
https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-19108?jql=project%20%3D%20CRM%20AND%20resolution%20in%20(%22Fixed%2FCompleted%22%2C%20Done)%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%204.7.10%20AND%20status%20in%20(Resolved%2C%20Closed%2C%20Done)

Testing for 4.7.10rc started with the release of the tarball yesterday (http://dist.civicrm.org/by-date/latest/4.7.10-rc/) and proceeds until next Thursday, July 29th. As fixes are made to the changes, and some pull requests only partially reviewed by Tuesday may continue to be merged during this week, there will be nightly updates to these tarballs. Please take the latest, and retest if you have reported a reversion.

We don't have a good sense of how much testing is being done each week, but we suspect it is less than hoped for. Please let me know if you do an install of the RC. Thanks!
