We run full regression test during Q4 Bug Fest. 89% of the test cases has been marked as PASSED. It is 12% higher compare to Bug Fest 3.2. Also, we had a record test case count of 689. Q4 release was delayed due to P1 and P2 defects that were found during Bug Fest. That being said, the Testing Community did a great job of finding blocking bugs and prevented them slipping into the release. We expect Q4 release to be finalized in the fist half of January.
Bug Fest notes:
We had fewer testers to participate in this Bug Fest: 39 vs 43
Testing community has been a great help again! 31 testers from different institutions helped us to complete this test cycle.
It was much better executed test cycle compare to Q3.2:
Not executed 1 vs 33
Blocked 4 vs 12
Retest 8 vs 40
Failed 66 vs 50
Passed 610 vs 464
Total 689 vs 599
Prior to the test run, small team of testers worked to create descriptions and steps for 425 test cases. Many thanks to everyone who contributed:

There is a positive trend in terms of balancing test case between Testing Community Members and Folio Staff:
Community members executed more test cases in Q4 vs Q3.2: 545 vs 395
Folio staff executed less test cases in Q4 vs Q3.2: 137 vs 180
We had several environment issues related to data migration and configuration of the reference data.
Overall, system performance was good. However it suffered due to the fact that some table indexes were missing during data migration.

Highlights of the results:
70 defects has been logged.
13 defects has been closed as "duplicate", "cannot reproduce", or "won't do". It is much lower percentage compare to previous BugFest Q3.2.
Defects were created by 24 different participants.
Holly Mistlebauer is the Bug Fest Champion with 18 submitted defects.
Testers logged the most number for defects against ui-users (25).
ui-inventory and mod-inventory-storage did much better this time. Only 4 defects has been filed.
ui-orders (5), ui-finance (6), and ui-organizations (5) received the highest defect count.
All 7 P1 defects were addressed before release.
There were 21 P2 defects. 18 of them has been fixed. The rest has been assigned to the future releases.
