Test Review and Approval Process |
The general workflow for test reviews and approval follows the GitHub contribution model and is summarized here:
-
Pre-condition: we assume everyone that is interested in reviewing and/or approving W3C's tests will set a "Watch" at GitHub so they will be notified when a Pull Request (PR) is made.
-
To initiate a review, make a Pull Request to the main
web-platform- tests/master
on GitHub. This will notify all subscribers of the PR. The review initiator can also notify the group of the PR via the mailing list in our communication channels. -
Reviewers should review the test code and reply accordingly. If no issues are found, the reviewer should state that so there is a trail a review was done.
-
After all of the review issues are addressed, the PR will be merged into the repository. The merge may be done by the spec's Test Facilitator or someone that is overseeing the test repository.
-
The merged tests are considered Approved.
