* [[User:Jlaska|jlaska]] 23:03, 21 December 2010 (UTC) - During discussion of critical path test case creation, [[User:Adamw|Adamw]] noted that it would be nice to be able to write tests that can be used for testing multiple packages. For example, some ''yum'' tests might be used to test both {{package|yum}} and {{package|PackageKit}}. I think nitrate allows linking tests to the packages they are designed to test, and therefor would allow this type of query when creating a new test run. That might be something to list in the features. Theoretically, Categories could be used on the wiki to organize this data, but that's starting to get messy! |

Comparing discrete features
- jlaska 21:27, 16 December 2010 (UTC) - Workflows - I like that you are identifying and comparing the different workflows in each solution. Let's continue capturing how we are using the wiki now (e.g. creating a test, posting a test result, Adding a bug to a result, initiating a new test run, finding remaining untested cases, Submitting a test summary, etc...). I'm not sure of the best way to compare workflows ... I'd have to play around with different options. The important thing for now seems to be capturing them.

Tests that impact multiple packages
- jlaska 23:03, 21 December 2010 (UTC) - During discussion of critical path test case creation, Adamw noted that it would be nice to be able to write tests that can be used for testing multiple packages. For example, some yum tests might be used to test both
yum
andPackageKit
. I think nitrate allows linking tests to the packages they are designed to test, and therefor would allow this type of query when creating a new test run. That might be something to list in the features. Theoretically, Categories could be used on the wiki to organize this data, but that's starting to get messy!
