Test Scripts

The primary purpose of the test scripts in this initial round is for all participants to become acclimated to the test process and confirm that results are expected and where not, take notes and analyze offline. As we move forward with testing, the test structure and execution will become more rigid culminating in a traditional UAT process.

We will record this session and make it available as a link from this page.

No changes to configuration on Sierra is expected. Any required mappings will be managed on the hub by Ian.

Each tester will share their screen when executing a step.
