Tomás, as someone who still is very much a newbie on testing, but comfortable filing bug reports when I find stuff, I'd like to participate in the testing, but want to know WHAT to throw at the test system. What bugs are you all looking for related to plack? Specific parts of the system? Regular tasks? What exactly does Plack change? Links? Behavior? 

Give me some guidelines/direction, and I'll gladly pound away at it. Or if just generally walking through my own internal pre-upgrade testing list works, where we touch everything from basic circ to cataloging to holds to reports, I can just walk through that process, too.

Thanks,

-Heather

Hi everyone, as we mentioned on yesterday's dev meetings, ByWater provided a VM with good specs with the idea of testing Plack on packages in real life.

I've set a plack-enabled instance on the server, with all the default data loaded, and created 100 superlibrarian users named test_1, test_2 and so on. You can login with the user name as password.

The goal is to find all the bugs :-D So feel free to go and break it. The compromise is that you HAVE to fill a bug for each thing you broke or found broken :-D Bonus points if you provide a patch ;-)
Remember you can use the kohadevbox branch that was created to test this on your box [1] (suitable for writing patches).

The instance can be accessed on:

Intranet: http://test-intra.plack.bywatersolutions.com/
OPAC: http://test.plack.bywatersolutions.com/

PS: It is set to use the indexer daemon with a 5 seconds frecquency, please try it, and try cataloguing, importing records, etc.
