First LibreOffice 5.2 BugHunting Session31 March 2016, 10:52 amLibreOffice is approaching the 5.2 release season with the first bug hunting session, on Friday, April 22, 2016. Tests will be performed on the Alpha version of LibreOffice 5.2, which will be available on the
pre-releases servers a few days before the event. Builds will be available for Linux (DEB and RPM), MacOS and Windows, and will run in parallel with the actual installation.
Mentors will be available on April 22, 2016, from 8AM UTC to 10PM UTC. Of course, hunting bugs will be possible also on other days, as the builds of this particular Alpha release (LibreOffice 5.2.0 Alpha) will be available until the end of May.
During the day there will be two dedicated sessions: the first to chase bugs on the four main LibreOffice modules – Writer, Calc, Impress and Draw – between 3PM UTC and 5PM UTC, and the second to test the top 10 features between 5PM UTC and 7PM UTC. The list of the top 10 features will be decided during the week before the session, and will be added to the wiki page.
During the dedicated sessions, we will concentrate all efforts to chase and reproduce the bugs, in order to confirm and file them in a more comprehensive way. Of course, the more comprehensive will be the bug report, the easier will be for the developers to solve the bugs in time for the final release.
As usual, there is a
page on the wiki with all the details about the bug hunting session. You should visit the page before April 22, 2016, as further details will be added while getting closer to the date of the event.
