Agenda

Topic: Moodle LMS QA cycle - How community contributions to QA testing ensure smooth major releases and strengthen Moodle LMS for us all (and how to get involved)

Speakers: Simey Lameze (Moodle)

Quick topic summary: The QA cycle is an integral part of every major Moodle LMS release, as it ensures all of the major features are stable and working as expected before we finalise and ship the release (and gives us an opportunity to fix any identified problems early).

For developers and non-developers alike, the QA cycle is a great opportunity to be involved in an important part of LMS releases, where you get to both see the new release before it is officially launched, and to play an important role in checking different parts of Moodle LMS continue to work smoothly for everyone upgrading to or installing the new version. Best of all, it's really easy to get involved (in many cases, you don't even need your own Moodle site!).

By the end of this session, you will have some insights into what the QA cycle is, how it works, and how you can get involved right now for the 5.3 release if you are interested.
