As our association -grows, we strive to ensure that we uphold the standards of the -distribution as a whole. - -The goal of the Quality Assurance group is to ensure not only that bugs -do not make their way to the public through testing and standards, but -that they may be easily resolved through triaging to their respective -packages and maintainers. - -These are not meant to be perfect statements that dictate our work; -rather, guiding principles that govern our work. We do not extensively -test items like individual packages, as those are left up to the -maintainers (though we do monitor every single update that goes through -the system); rather, we make sure that **the system as a whole functions -properly**. - -Breakdown ---------- - -- Cooperating with Cooker maintainers to assign bugs to those that may - be able to resolve them. -- Providing for the testing repository and ensuring that migration to - the stable repositories will not cause harm. -- Verifying the integrity of standards within the distribution - releases. -- Coordinating and prioritizing major tasks that maintainers need to - be aware of. -- Determining, with the help of Cooker maintainers, the release - priorities and criteria that must be upheld for any release to - happen. - -Joining QA {#joining_qa} ----------- - -We welcome everyone to help us test OpenMandriva Lx! You can see our -[Getting Started] page for more information about the tools we have at -our disposal, and future plans. - -Active Members {#active_members} --------------- - -- Ben Bullard -- Colin Close -- Chris Tanner -- Cristina - -*(Is this accurate?

However, none -compare to the actual task of checking by hand and doing it with actual -computers, as those are the true use cases.
