halfwhole edited this page Jun 17, 2025 · 70 revisions

Before we roll out new features and/or fixes, we need to do some regression testing to make sure the core functionality of our app is still working as intended. This page provides a template list of tests that needs to be conducted before the release.

The checks that are strike-through are either covered by end to end tests or unused.

Hint: Copy this template to your release pull request.

Before going through the tests, please clear your cookies
