Notes
Onboarding document –
- Please feel free to take a look and comment on it; it is linked in the agenda
- Jana will provide it to new members, but encourages new members to continue engaging and asking questions
Bugfest –
- There are still ~300 unclaimed test cases; quite a few in RA areas (notices, fees/fines)
- Erin gave an overview of what Bugfest is and how it works
- There are 30% more tests for this Bugfest than last, which is contributing to the higher level of unclaimed tests.
- There is a Slack channel that people can be added to; need to be signed up for Testrails
- Bugfest will happen for every release and new community participants are encouraged to hop in as it is a great learning opportunity.
- Cheryl pointed out that this is not just testing new features but also regression testing for existing features.
- Bugfest environment allows testing at larger scale than Snapshots (more patrons, greater collection size in Inventory)
- Some of the new functionality will not be available until Monday (Bugfest is 2 weeks for the first time)
- Jana would like to have a recap meeting after Bugfest to discuss experiences and findings.

Documentation Update, Erin Nettifee
- Extensive updates in the agenda.
- Erin is excited for the Inventory documentation (Jesse leading this effort) and User Management (Christine leading this effort).
- Glossary being developed to act as central repository for platform-wide definitions: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c2NkqJ0amsorBBWB8MuvSqXaQSIwqhL4t3i2zxEFR5I/edit
- RA Season of Docs intern already did a significant amount of documentation reviewed by SMEs, but we do have a fair amount of additional documentation to build out.
- Erin has been organizing outstanding documentation needs into distinct categories
- Fees, fines, blocks
- Cornell could contribute here
- Notices
- Goldenrod version of document by Darcy: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BO4HgW4d8gah6dpozpnucJ1zulfkBA2ASdL7HXuzZEo/edit?usp=sharing
- Have not yet done a Honeysuckle version but would like to update for Iris with aged to lost notice documentation.
- Darcy is happy to be involved but encourages writing/editing from adopters.
- Circulation rules and policies
- Cheryl has some documentation but would be helpful to see adopter rules.
- Cornell is beginning to build their circulation rules and would be happy to document the process.
- Molly volunteered for this group.
- Would like to form groups which may include the PO but does not shoulder the POs with the responsibility of writing the documentation.
- 3-4 people for each topic
- Brooks is happy to be available but cannot commit to any writing responsibility right now.
- Erin will post to the RA Slack channel to gather other participants.
- This effort is essential to implementers so the effort now will translate to efficiency later.
- Most of the efforts will be done via Google doc collaboration; avoiding supplemental meetings if not strictly necessary.
- Fees, fines, blocks
