Manual Release Testing
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following document outlines some steps to follow to manually test
|
|
for bugs in a release candidate.
|
|
|
|
When reporting bugs, please use <http://bugs.koha.org/>. Please
|
|
include information about: What OS, release, and distribution you're
|
|
using. Also, which webserver (including version number), which RDMS
|
|
(including version number), and the version of Perl you're running.
|
|
Do not be too suprised if a developer gets back to you with a request
|
|
for more information about your environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1) Installing Koha.
|
|
You should be able to install Koha using installer.pl. We're
|
|
hoping that this method works cleanly with RedHat and Debian Linux
|
|
(at least). We'd like to hear problem reports about any OS you're
|
|
using though.
