User:DWalden (WMF)/Test2wiki k8s migration/Caching
SRE and the Performance team already have some metrics in place to monitor the test2wiki roll-out (see phab:T308763#7954957). Therefore, it is not expected that QTE will have to do any extra testing of this.
| Feature | Need testing? | What are the risks? | Does it have dependencies? | Existing regression or smoke testing strategy? | Does the regression/smoke testing strategy cover the dependencies? | Can it be tested on test2wiki? | Feasible to make it testable on test2wiki? |

[edit]Definitions
[edit]- test2wiki
- https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page. An environment hosted on production servers but with test data, so is appropriate for testing. The code it is running is updated every Tuesday.
- To find a list of extensions already installed on test2wiki, see https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version.
- Need testing?
- Features may not need testing. For example, this might be because:
- it is not hosted on Production
- it is mainly a UI feature
- it is considered low-risk
- External services?
-
- Inside our ecosystem like database, APIs, Parsoid
- Outside our ecosystem like third-party APIs
- Back-end processing?
- Including DeferredUpdates, job queue. See How_to#Find_out_if_my_feature/extension_does_back-end_processing.
- External binaries?
- See How_to#Find_out_if_my_feature/extension_uses_external_binaries.
- Existing regression or smoke testing strategy?
- This could include:
- Selenium tests (see How_to#Find_pre-existing_Selenium_tests)
- API tests (see How_to#Find_pre-existing_API_tests).
- Documented test procedures
- Exploratory testing
