[Koha-devel] [QA] QAing and signing off

[Marcel de Rooy]

For me it feels more work. If I add a signoff, I must have tested the patch more extensively. But if I do not need to add signoff and I can rely on a solid signoff already, the QA process will be faster. Note that I do not oppose this step, I am just warning that it takes more time. I do not favor only adding a signoff line without more testing. This would create a "false feeling of security".

Of course it is, but you can hardly QA something if you haven't even applied it. My point is, applying a patch then doing your QA then signing that patch off ... the only change is adding the sign off.

All Jared is asking is, that if you mark a patch passed-qa you add a sign off to it.
