Dear [XXX],
As per our conversation, I am looking for bugs OR approval to release
this version. Note: it's helpful for me to be able to work on a chunk
of issues rather than just 1 at a time (this generally takes longer as
I'll have to get my mind in the right space again)
I have checked:
-
SSW Code Auditor - it has [XXX] errors [If skipping, don't delete,
and instead put the reason here eg. As per XXX, I]
-
SSW Link Auditor - it has [XXX] errors [If skipping, don't delete,
and instead put the reason here eg. As per XXX, I]
-
SSW SQL Auditor - it has [XXX] errors [If skipping, don't delete,
and instead put the reason here eg. As per XXX, I]
-
SSW Exception Manager - it has [XXX] exceptions [If skipping, don't
delete, and instead put the reason here eg. As per XXX, I]
FYI, I aim to get all these errors and exceptions to zero -
Web Test(For Web Applications) - it has [XXX] errors [If skipping,
don't delete, and instead put the reason here eg. As per XXX, I]

Specific issues to look out for are:
-
[XXX]
-
[YYY]
CC the project manager [xxx@yyy.com] and the client [xxx@yyy.com] on
new incidents
The latest version of [XXX] has been uploaded to
\\frog\SSW\Download\[Application_verX-XX_beta.exe
or
http://www.ssw.com.au/Northwind/
-
Keep in mind that a test-please is an urgent task and that it should
start within the hour
https://www.ssw.com.au/rules/request-a-test-please
-
(For Win Form Application)Test on a fresh VPC image of Windows XP.
-
(For Win Form Application)Test on a fresh VPC image of Windows
Vista(32bit and 64bit).
-
(For Win Form Application)Install into a non default directory
-
(For Win Form Application)Check the installation folder for
misplaced items
-
Test Unit Tests via "Help - Run Unit Tests"
-
(If Applicable)Test the "Create" and "Reconcile" buttons
-
Test open and closing forms and saving values
-
Test most buttons and menus and links
-
Disable your network connection and test again (check for unhandled
errors)
-
Send suggestions/bugs one email at a time (in a new email) because:
-
It wastes space (due to the large table of incidents below)
-
It affects MSN Desktop search results as the email will contain
all the incident's subject below.
-
Know the definition of a bug
https://www.ssw.com.au/rules/definition-of-a-bug
-
Know what are good subjects
https://www.ssw.com.au/rules/good-email-subject
-
Do not reply to this message until you can say
"Test Please Succeeded (as no Critical bugs). You are ready to deploy."
or
"Test Please Failed (as per Critical bugs reported)" -
If your test fails, please rename the executable to
[Application_verX-XX_failed.exe]
Note to developer: If this version is better than the last version you
can release (even with a test fail) as long:
-
The bugs reported in the test fail existed in the old version
-
Two people have tested it
-
The changes in this version are fairly important to get out
-
You get to work on the failures ASAP
For clients on fixed price contracts, this email marks the start of
the 30 day warranty period.
