    Intro

    The LibreOffice community is preparing the release of 3.6.0. There is a load of good new stuff prepared (more below...) and we want to make sure that it is well tested. You can now help to make version 3.6.0 a great one! At July 6 and 7 we have an international bug-hunting session with the third beta for LibreOffice 3.6.0. Join :-)

    How to join

    When: July 6 and 7

    Any time you want ... however:

    • Mentors are supposed to be available from 08:00 UTC to 22:00 UTC on both dates.

    When you are not able to join this session, you're of course always welcome to hunt bugs at other dates/times ;-)


    What to test

    We aim at

    • doing as much testing on the 3.6.0 as possible
    • triaging all already filed issues, so that it's as clear as possible for the developers to step in!

    There are always more ways to test: do your regular tasks, structured tests, or playing with the new features..
    Choose what suits best for you  :-) All testing is great and important!
    So take one of those:

    • your own favorite features
    • look at the new 3.6 features
    • pick up a test case from the standard regression test
    • Soon we will give some useful queries at this place, what will lead you to bugs that need some checking:


    Find a bug?

    When you are really sure: add it to our bug database. When you want to discuss it, use chat or mail, fast and direct.
    So:

    If there is a bug that you want to pin point as clear as possible, then bibisect (explained by Bjoern Michaelsen) will be a great tool for you!
