The test areas are fine on the wiki, but documenting all tests twice is too much overhead 14:44:14 #info what we use to document the test lists seems to be an open issue, e.g. the list of cases in the file in git, etc... 14:44:37 #info ChrisP suggests we may not be ready to ID test cases when we have not defined the test areas yet 14:46:03 #info Bryan suggests that having to maintain all the needed info on tests in git flat files is not the way to proceed 14:46:33 #info agreement seems to center around test case requirements and need to develop the test areas first 14:47:04 #info with drafts on the wiki and rst in git when ready 14:47:06 So - for document: 14:47:13 1.
