Testing plans

0.88 Features

We use the section "How to test" of the Feature page.

  • Enhanced Gettext Testing plan - Enhanced Gettext adds an extra search path for translation files for Sugar activities. This would allow deployments to add and update activity translations independently of the release process.
  • Font configuration - Distributors/deployers need a way to be able to customize the Sugar font size.
