As you know Kiwi TCMS has been around for a while and it has +gone through some big changes in the last year! It started as an abandoned +Django 1.6 project with broken test suite and is now currently running on the +latest Django 2.0.1 with Python 3.5! It is clearly a legacy code base! + +We, the Kiwi TCMS team, have learned a lot more about the project and this +blog post describes our roadmap for 2018 in terms of technical work and community +engagement. The general technical direction is cleaner/simpler code, +improved UI/UX and more tests! + + +Make code easier to maintain +---------------------------- + +The current code is a bunch of very large modules and functions and classes +bundled together. It is also old and sometimes looks like spaghetti code. +[CodeClimate](https://codeclimate.com/github/kiwitcms/Kiwi) gives us a "D" rating +for maintainability with a 1 year estimated effort to fix that. There are 600+ +code smells and 600+ duplications detected by CodeClimate. Our goal is to get this +number down to zero! + + +Use pylint and pylint-django +---------------------------- + +pylint is the standard static analyzer for Python and currently it reports over +4000 errors and warnings when executed against Kiwi TCMS. This is a huge number and +it needs to become zero! We've also identified interesting patterns that will +make it into pylint and pylint-django plugins! + + +Render HTML, return JSON +------------------------ + +The current state of affairs is a mix and match of everything. There are views that +render HTML, others which return pure JSON, other which return HTML encoded as JSON string +and probably everything in between. Views that render pages need to do just that +and views that are used with AJAX calls from the UI need to return pure JSON! +A lot of these are hiding in plain sight and will come to light when we start +overhauling the user interface. + + +Submit forms, post JSON, GET clean URLs +--------------------------------------- + +There are lots of forms in Kiwi TCMS. Sometimes they are submitted by the user and +other times they are serialized and POSTed by some JavaScript code. This isn't +very easy to understand plus this entire home-grown utility code doesn't bring +anything useful to the project. All of these need to be identified and cleaned up. +JavaScript code needs to send or consume JSON, nothing else! + +There are also lots of places where Kiwi issues GET requests with a number of +query parameters. Our goal is to minimize these and where possible have the +parameters as part of the Django urls scheme, not as query strings. + + +API layer +--------- + +The current API module is a bit disorganized. API namespaces don't match the +names of the underlying DB models and the API client classes don't match any +of the other two! The way we pass parameters and what these parameters are +named should match between the client, the RPC method and the underlying model! + +In earlier releases we've removed duplicate or similar RPC methods and we +think there are more of these that need our love. + + +Documentation +------------- + +We've started producing documentation from doc-strings and most of the RPC +methods have such. However it is unformatted and barely readable, sometimes +even inaccurate. Previous releases made progress on this but there's a lot +more to cover. + +All RPC methods should be documented first and then the rest of Kiwi's +internals to make development easier! + + +No vendored JavaScript libraries +-------------------------------- + +There are 11 vendored-in JavaScript files that we carry around in Kiwi TCMS. +Most notable are jQuery plus a few addons and Handlebars.js. To the extent possible +our goal is to use jQuery provided by Django or installed via NPM dependencies! + + +Less HTML templates with better organization +-------------------------------------------- + +There are over 100 HTML templates in Kiwi TCMS. There are also email and even +JavaScript templates. For example there are `get_cases.html` and `get_review_cases.html` +which are essentially the same. This is kind of also true for templates used in +new and edit views! Such templates should be unified! + +Those JavaScript templates need to be totally gone! + +All templates are stuffed together in a single directory and their names +are not very predictable. They need to be split per application and follow +some kind of naming convention. + + +Modern interface with Patternfly +-------------------------------- + +The UI already uses the Patternfly library for some of its widgets. Most notably +the main navigation header. Our goal is for the entire UI to be ported to Patternfly +by updating widgets HTML and CSS where needed. +This will also help clean things up a lot. At the same time we'll be rethinking how +information is organized on screen and how the person interacts with it! Usability +suggestions are very welcome! + +This move will also help us get rid of the Handlebars dependency which is now +used for pop-up dialogs. + + +JavaScript updates and front-end testing +---------------------------------------- + +There's lots of JavaScript code on the front-end and honestly we don't quite know +what it does or how it is organized. There are also no tests on the front-end +whatsoever! + +It is our goal for this to change with the intention to not overdo the JavaScript +part and keep things very minimal. At the moment we're thinking about vanilla jQuery +that will act as a proxy between the browser and the back-end! + + +Community efforts +------------------ + +A year ago hardly anybody knew what Kiwi TCMS was, the project didn't even have +this name, there was 1 active contributor and hardly any users! Now the community +has started to slowly revitalize, we're seeing some contributions from our +junior team members (more on this in another blog post) and also seeing +folks installing and using Kiwi TCMS and reporting interesting bugs and feature +requests around it! + +For the upcoming year our goal is to seek active engagement with other open source +projects that could make use of Kiwi TCMS and work with them. Kudos to +openSUSE for being the first +[to propose such integration](https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/95)! +We're also planning couple of appearances at a few conferences but there's +nothing confirmed yet. + +Every other contribution in terms of bug reports, new users and feature requests +is of course welcome but we're very conscious of the fact that there's tons +of work to be done and the team is still very small! + + +Team wise we'd like to get the existing team members up to speed and tackle +the above tasks with priority. This will also help us introduce bug fixes +and new features more quickly! + + +Happy testing! diff --git a/content/2018-01-25-version-3.50.markdown b/content/2018-01-25-version-3.50.markdown new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c448fbc2 --- /dev/null +++ b/content/2018-01-25-version-3.50.markdown @@ -0,0 +1,71 @@ +Title: Kiwi TCMS version 3.50 +headline: and tcms-api version 1.5.1 +date: 2018-01-25 11:30 +comments: true +tags: releases + +We're happy to announce Kiwi TCMS version 3.50 +and the corresponding tcms-api version 1.5.1!

Kiwi TCMS needs your help! We are looking for developers who +wish to create plugins for popular test runners that will record test results +in Kiwi TCMS! Initially we are looking for plugins for Python's unittest, +[Django](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/testing/advanced/#using-different-testing-frameworks) +and [JUnit](https://junit.org/junit4/plugins.html)! + + +What is a test runner? +---------------------- + +When working with automated testing you have several components: + +* A test module (or test script), e.g. `test_models.py` which contains + tests for your software; +* A test framework, e.g. Python nose, which provides the structure + for test classes and methods and assert methods to use; +* A test runner, which knows how to discover your test scripts, load them, + execute the testing scenarios inside of them and report the results. + + +Very often all of the components above live together inside the testing framework +but don't need to. For example the standard `unittest` module in Python +provides a test runner but there are also `nose` and `py.test` and Django provides +its own test runner that knows how to work with the database. + + +Workflow organization +--------------------- + +Once you agree to writing a plugin we are going to create a separate GitHub +repository where you will be granted write privileges making you an independent +contributor to the Kiwi TCMS project! + + +Design and architecture of the plugin is up to you, following the practices +established by the testing framework in question. You will also have to create +a test suite for your plugin based on the specification below. + +You are expected to use +[public.tenant.kiwitcms.org](https://public.tenant.kiwitcms.org/login/github-app/) while working on the +plugin and afterwards. This is known as eating your own dog food! + +For Python we provide the `tcms-api` module which already takes care of the +communications layer. For other languages you will have to create this layer or +depend on other open source libraries that provide a XML-RPC or JSON-RPC +client! + +You can use +[this gist](https://gist.github.com/atodorov/f5aed028b6f254d97bcaf93453abe8d2) +for inspiration!

The most important pages +that still have a different look and feel are TestPlan view, TestCase view and +TestRun view. These are also the hardest to convert because they have lots of +tabs/components which pull information from various places.

The thing is integration is a specified +set of behavior which may or may not be desired in a particular team. As of now +Kiwi TCMS is able to open a URL to your bug-tracker with predefined field +values, add comments to bug reports and report a simple summary of bugs +inside a TestRun. + +We recognize this may not be enough and together with the community we +really need to define what bug tracker integration means! The broader domain +of application lifecycle management tools (of which TCMS is a sub-set) have an +integrated bug tracking system. We can add something like this and save you +the trouble of using JIRA, however many teams have already invested in +integrating their infrastructure or just like other tools.

User stories + are created +* Behavior specification may also be created +* Test plans and test cases are the immediate product of BDD specs and + desired user stories + +Later we iterate through the sprints and for each sprint something like +this happens: + +* Desired product features are planned for development. They must be *complete* + at least in terms of requirements, specs and tests +* Devel writes code, maybe some unit tests, testers can also write automated tests + and/or manually verify the current state of the feature being developed +* Testing, including exploratory is performed before feature is merged +* Rinse and repeat + + +Devel is also part of testing, right? Product owners, UX and interaction +designers as well. Producing quality software product is a team effort! + + +In every step of the way Kiwi TCMS can provide notification wizards, guidelines +and/or documentation for best practices, facilitate tooling, e.g. to write user stories +and assess them or map out an exploratory testing session, etc. The list +of ideas is virtually endless. We can even go into deep learning, AI and +blockchain but honestly who knows how to use them in testing ? + +Our team is not quite sure how this goal will look like 3 months from now +but we are certain that testing needs to happen first, last and all the time +during the entire software development lifecycle. By providing the necessary +functionality and tools in Kiwi TCMS we can boost engineering productivity +and steer the testing process in your organization into a better, more productive +direction which welcomes participation from all engineering groups. + +Let's consider another point of view: testing is a creative activity +which is benefited by putting your brain into a specific state of mind! +For example Gherkin (the Given-When-Then language) has the benefit of +forcing you to think about behavior and while doing so you are vocalizing +the various roles in the system, what kind of actions are accepted and +what sort of result is expected!

Once you can demonstrate progress and learn the ropes you +will continue working on more complicated tasks. + + +Experienced Python developer(s) +------------------------------- + +So you have some experience already, you've probably contributed code before and are +now looking for more green stripes on your GitHub profile. We've got you covered! + +There are many areas to choose from: issue tracker integration, GitHub integration, +GitLab integration, external API library, Kiwi TCMS plugins written in Python and +customized pylint linters! This is going to be where you get your hands dirty and +show your strengths. Our team is here to help if necessary but we expect you to +show progress by yourself. + +A challenge for you will be to review pull requests from other contributors and +be patient with less experienced contributors and team members. This is an excellent +opportunity to work on your people skills as well. + + +Experienced non-Python developer(s) (with Java) +----------------------------------------------- + +Kiwi TCMS is primarily looking for Java developers who will own our test automation +plugins. Currently we have a plugin for JUnit 5 and TestNG is in planning. Maybe +there will be a plugin for Jenkins as well. You are going to own these components +and work solely on them. Unless you decide to learn Python and Django that would +be a very easy job! + +.NET, PHP, Ruby, JavaScript ? We don't have a lot of code written in these languages +but you can help change this. The main thing we'd like you to know +(or become familiar with) are the internals of popular test automation frameworks +for these languages and how to create plugins for them. + + +QA engineer with Python +----------------------- + +You are going to test a lot! You are going to write test automation a lot! Ideally you +already have a medium level of experience in the software testing field and +want to improve your coding skills and/or get more experience into a different +application domain. We also have Linux and Docker in the mix, just for fun! + +Your responsibility will be to design test scenarios for various features (new or existing), +write test automation scripts and help improve overall test coverage and quality +of Kiwi TCMS. You will also check-in on non-Python developers and +help them with test design when necessary. + + +There are other things that can be tested as well, for example Kiwi TCMS +performance and scalability. Here you will have to get down to the nitty-gritty +stuff and do some profiling to pin-point where the root cause of the problem is. + + +Security freak +-------------- + +We've got [Coverity scan](https://scan.coverity.com/projects/kiwitcms-kiwi) and +[Snyk](https://snyk.io/test/github/kiwitcms/Kiwi) automatically inspecting our +code base. We do have some other tools as well and we know they can never be enough. + +You will be responsible for triaging the numerous issues being reported by these +tools and help us decide if they are a real threat or a false positive. For example +Coverity reports hundreds of issues mostly coming from our Python and Node.js dependency +stack. We haven't had the time to classify them and work with upstream communities +to fix them thus the majority of your contributions will be outside of the +Kiwi TCMS code base. + +Graphics designer +----------------- + +Your main job is going to be creating beautiful images for our website, +blog posts and promotional material. All the images we use are licensed under +Creative Commons which we then modify with the specific Kiwi TCMS look and +feel. This is not going to change, your work will remain under a permissive +license! + + +Marketing specialist +-------------------- + +You will be directly responsible for driving more traffic to our website, +interpreting Google Analytics metrics and coming up with creative ideas +how to boost Kiwi TCMS popularity. This means, but not limited to blog posts, +collaborations with other projects and/or bloggers, professional magazines, etc. +You will also be in charge of events and conferences that we go to! Whenever +possible you will be coming with us as well! + +A challenge for you will be to learn some technical jargon and learn more +about the software testing profession and software testers in general! + + +What's in it for you ? +---------------------- + +You will sharpen your skills! You will use Kiwi TCMS as a platform to +improve your career. You will experience the gratification of our community of users. + +This blog is the medium where you can share tips +and tricks and technical articles about interesting features in Kiwi TCMS. +If you'd rather have your personal blog working on Kiwi TCMS will give you lots +of topics to write about. + +We go to conferences and meetups too. If public speaking is your thing +you will have plenty of topics to talk about. We can also help you +deliver your first presentation! Everyone on the team has done it! + +Our existing team will help you learn and we will help you grow. Our personal time +is the most expensive item we can offer to you! In return we expect you to +fulfill your commitments and when you promise something will be done you will +make sure it is done! + + +How to apply ? +-------------- + +You can figure this out yourself. + +Happy testing! diff --git a/content/2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown b/content/2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b202ea53 --- /dev/null +++ b/content/2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown @@ -0,0 +1,276 @@ +Title: Legacy reports become Telemetry +headline: here's what is going to change +date: 2019-03-03 21:27 +comments: true +og_image: images/telemetry/social_image.png +twitter_image: images/telemetry/social_image.png + +As we've [promised]({filename}2019-01-10-2019-mission.markdown) Kiwi TCMS is +starting work on improving the legacy reports functionality. +After analyzing your feedback in +[Issue #657](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/657) here's what we came up +with. *Note: screenshots below are mockups.* + + +General tech specs +------------------ + +* Once a self-contained tarball is installed inside the Docker image (or inside local virtualenv) + Kiwi TCMS will be able to find it automatically and update the menu options.

A "test run" is the collection of multiple "test cases" which +will be executed against a particular product build and environment. + +The specific results are kept into what is now called "test case run". This will +be renamed to "test execution" (internally `TestExecution` class) to make it more +clear and easier to distinguish among other artifacts. + + +Feature: Better color coding for test execution status +------------------------------------------------------ + +As a webUI user I want to easily distinguish between PASSED, FAILED and other statuses +when looking at charts and graphical visualizations. + +TestRun progress + +This feature request comes from the TestRun progress bar. +Other charts should use the same 4 status categories and color coding standards: + +* IDLE - `pf-black-600` +* PASSED - `pf-green-400` +* FAILED - `pf-red-100` +* OTHER - `pf-orange-400`. This includes other statuses which are not PASSED, FAILED and IDLE. + +Here the percent value will continue to mean *percent completed, aka non-IDLE*. + +Implementation wise the `TestCaseRunStatus` class defines methods for the actual icons to be used. +The same can be done for colors and this can be used directly in the HTML templates. +For color definitions see [Status Palette](https://www.patternfly.org/styles/color-palette/). + + +Feature: Printable Test Execution Report +---------------------------------------- + +As a tester I want to have a nice looking TestRun execution report which I can present to +my managers, stakeholders and/or customers. The page needs to be printer friendly for +“Print to PDF” or print on paper! + +Kiwi TCMS already has this feature. Clicking the `[Report]` button +in the progress widget at [TR-625](https://public.tenant.kiwitcms.org/runs/625/) presents +TestRun execution information in a simplified format found at +[TR-625/Report](https://public.tenant.kiwitcms.org/runs/625/report/). +In order to improve the current implementation: + +* Convert TestRun page to Patternfly which generally prints better +* Add bug list at the bottom of the page, below all test execution rows +* Keep “View all in Issue Tracker” link (supported only for some bug trackers) +* The widget for TestRun progress must be kept +* Tweak CSS classes to disable printing for visual elements that we don't need. + This will be decided after the entire page has been converted to Patternfly +* Remove the existing `testruns.views.TestRunReportView` and associated templates, + JavaScript and CSS because they will not be needed anymore + + +Feature: Individual or team performance telemetry +------------------------------------------------- + +As a manager I want to know what the work-load/performance of individual teams and +engineers is. I can use this information either for performance review or for +capacity planning of future work. + +Individual/team performance + + +A new page will be available under TELEMETRY -> Management -> Performance which will: + +* Allow filtering by + * Group (multi-select) + * User (multi select, depends on Group) + * Start / Stop dates + * Product +* Show results per User or per Group (if no users are selected) +* Allow grouping per TestRun ID or calendar week number + +The backend will query `TestExecution.objects` and apply the selected +filters and grouping logic! +The returned data is the count of how many tests this person/team was able to execute. + +Further refinement: +Aggregate count by statuses (executed vs. non-executed or PASSED vs. FAILED vs. OTHER). +May be represented as a stacked bar chart if grouping of series is supported. + + + +Feature: Time-tracking telemetry +-------------------------------- + +As a manager I want to know how much time it took to complete previous testing activities. +I can use this information for predicting future capacity. + +New page under TELEMETRY -> Management -> Time tracking. + +* Filtering will be the same as performance telemetry +* Grouping will be the same as performance telemetry +* **Unknown:** total execution time is calculated as + * the sum of duration for each TestExecution (not available ATM, + automation plugins not sending this info) or + * the total time for the entire TestRrun (not supported by automation plugins) + +Visually this will be a line chart with one line for each user/group which have +been selected. It will be very good if the existing chart libraries allow for a +stacked line chart or a stacked area chart here! + + +Feature: Estimate TestRun completion time +----------------------------------------- + +As a test lead I want to know approximately when testing is expected to complete. + +This feature will utilize time-tracking data from previous executions and +display the approximated calculation in the web UI. The most obvious place for this +is the TestRun progress widget (under the progress bar) or the Test Run page +(near the Started at/Finished at fields). + + +Example text: + +``` +Started at: YYYY-MM-DD 10:38 +Status: Running +Duration: 1.2 / 3 hrs +Estimated completion at: 13:30 +``` + +**Unknown:** where does baseline duration come from? Either from the most recent TestRun +or an average from all of the previous Test Runs. Note that cumulative TestRun duration +is calculated between Start/Finish events while individual TestExecution records may +sum up to a different value! This needs to be clarified. + + +Feature: TestCase health telemetry +---------------------------------- + +As a tester and/or manager I want to be able to discover which TestCase(s) are the most +common source of problems, that is they fail all the time or from time to time. +This may indicate poor test design or bad practices when developing the product. +This is also known as test stability or flaky tests! + +Flaky tests + +New page under TELEMETRY -> Testing -> Flaky tests + +* Allow filtering by + * Product + * Test plan (refined by product) + * Start / Stop dates +* Show results in table form as shown in the image above +* PASS/non-PASS stats will be calculated based on `TestExecution.objects` +* 100% failing rate will be reported in the first table as ALWAYS FAILING +* Executions where failing rate is >0% and <100% will be reported as FLAKY TESTS + + +Feature: TestCase breakdown telemetry +------------------------------------- + +As a tester and/or manager I want to see a breakdown of tests so that I have an +idea how the existing tests for the product are distributed! + +Test case breakdown + +New page under TELEMETRY -> Testing -> Breakdown + +* Allow filtering by + * Product + * Test plan (refined by product) + * Start / Stop dates + +Shows combined bar/line charts with information about test case priorities, categories, +automation status and confirmed status. + + +Feature: Individual TestCase health widget +------------------------------------------ + +As a test engineer I want to be able to quickly see health information about individual +test case. This can help me visually locate TCs that need improvement so I can edit them +or will help me visually judge the past history of the TC I am looking at. + +Individual TestCase health + +This depends on the previous feature. Possible places where health status can be shown: + +* Test Case page, Executions card: info per TP +* Test Run page, Test Executions table - visual icon + % to hint the user + about expected TC stability + + +Feature: Execution trends telemetry +----------------------------------- + +As a test manager I want to see information if Product builds are getting better or worse. +In other words what is the trend in TestExecution number and status! + +Build status + +This is going to be a new page at TELEMETRY -> Testing -> Execution trends + +* Filter by + * Product + * Version (refined by Product) + * Build (refined by Version) + * Test Plan (refined by Product) + * Start / Stop dates +* Shows total count of `TestExecution.objects` (stacked area chart) with color codes for status +* Group by TestRun ID or calendar week + +You will be able to select TestRuns and/or weeks for detailed comparison. + + +Feature: TestRun status matrix telemetry +---------------------------------------- + +As a test manager I want to see detailed information about testing status for +specific test run(s) or a calendar period. I also want to be able to compare +the results between various weeks and/or test runs. + +Compare TestRuns + +This is a continuation of Execution trends telemetry but can be used on its own as well. +It will be accessible from TELEMETRY -> Testing -> Status matrix + +Filtering options are the same. Results are displayed in a table format where +columns are the filtered (or previously selected) TestRun objects or calendar weeks. +The rows are the names of individual test cases that have been executed. If a case +is missing the cell will be empty. + +Cells contain color coded information about status, timestamp of execution, +execution duration, links to the TestExecution object, latest comment in case +of failure. + +Links to bugs will be shown in each cell with a summarized bug table below the +charts. + + +Feature: Search and compare TestRuns +------------------------------------ + +This is complimentary to the TestRun status matrix feature!

The greatest +positive thing has been community and team development! + + +Complete the internal refactoring +--------------------------------- + +*Status: minimal progress, needs help* + +[CodeClimate](https://codeclimate.com/github/kiwitcms/Kiwi) progress is: + +* -30 code smells +* -40 duplications +* -30 other issues +* 4% technical debt improvement +* -200 hrs remaining until issues are fixed + +This is mostly the result of code reviews and minor fixes, not targeted work. + +We have not done any targeted work to resolve other issues reported by Scrutinizer, +Pylint, remove vendored-in JavaScript libraries, JavaScript refactoring or +classification of issues in 3rd party dependencies. + +There are new people onboarding in the team right now and our plan is for +them to start grinding at these issues very soon! + + +Redesign the UI templates with the help of Patternfly +----------------------------------------------------- + +*Status: 50% done, needs help* + +There are 27 HTML templates remaining to be redesigned (from 59). That's mostly +due to internal cleanup than targeted refactoring. More work on this item +will probably follow towards the end of the year after we get more priority items out of +the way and get more of the new team members rolling! + + +Modernize reporting aka Telemetry +--------------------------------- + +*Status: in progress, a bit behind schedule* + +The specs for the new [Telemetry]({filename}2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown) system +have been defined after taking into account feedback on GitHub issues. Anton Sankov is +the leading developer for this feature. So far we have 2 telemetry reports merged: +testing break-down and status matrix. The next one will be execution trends. + +There are lots of minor issues or missing functionality in these first iterations +(compared to specification). Our plan is to have the major use-cases satisfied first +and then work to refine all of the existing telemetry pages. + + +Plugins for 3rd party test automation frameworks +------------------------------------------------ + +*Status: good, needs help* + +Until now we have released TAP, junit.xml and native JUnit 5 plugins. There's also +a PHPUnit plugin which is more or less complete but unreleased yet. Both JUnit 5 +and PHPUnit plugins are developed by external contributors! + +We often get asked for plugins for languages and frameworks we don't use or don't +even know! Given that our expertise is mostly in Python we will gladly accept your +pull requests if you decide to maintain or contribute to one of the plugins. This +will also help us get insight into what automation frameworks people are using +and how exactly you structure a test automation workflow around Kiwi TCMS. + +Checkout the +[documentation](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html) for links +and more info. + + +Redefine bug-tracker integration +-------------------------------- + +*Status: no progress* + +Last week, right after OpenExpo, we did a check-up session and this was one of the +areas identified with zero amount of progress. I have a strong preference to work +on this feature myself but have not been able to due to various other items that +need my attention. + +The short version is that I'd prefer to remove all issue tracker specific code +and allow the tester to add arbitrary URLs to link to existing bugs. How to do +integration (even as simple as publishing a comment in the bug tracker) over +a generic interface still eludes me. In the next few weeks I will kick-off this +topic with a separate blog post/issue for everyone to comment on. + + +GitHub flow integration +----------------------- + +*Status: no progress* + +Our team spent some time making Kiwi TCMS the first open source TCMS available +on the [GitHub Marketplace](https://github.com/marketplace/kiwi-tcms). We will +continue this integration effort and flow integration will emerge from that. +There's also many things that need to be done to satisfy GitHub's . + + +Agile integration with Trello +----------------------------- + +*Status: no progress* + + +Improve engineering productivity +-------------------------------- + +*Status: no progress* + +Our mission is to transform testing in your organization by providing +the tools for that via Kiwi TCMS. It is astonishing that so far nobody has provided +any kind of feedback in [Issue #703](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/703) +wrt improving productivity in their teams! + +We have some ideas which have been blocked by lack of resources on the team and +refactoring tasks.

This is a fact and a good sized chunk of our user base +actually performs manual testing. Those that can write automation and probably +code decently well may not be familiar with Python and Django. At least in Bulgaria +these two aren't very popular, definitely not among testers. That is to say this part +of the user-base simply doesn't have the necessary skills to contribute and the majority +of what we need is code contribution! + +Another (fairly big IMO) group of users are coming from proprietary companies who +view open source and Kiwi TCMS as a zero cost option. Something that they take free +of charge and use it without ever contributing back. They don't understand nor really +care about the open source culture. + +To make things worse we receive requests every single day via +our private email addresses or questions via IM despite our website clearly stating +community engagement rules. On a few occasions we have received very rude comments +of the sort "our company demands you fix this", "is this going to be ready this year" +(context implying entitlement), etc. To make things more ridiculous we've even received +support requests (via contact form) from companies and start-up +who get their return address wrong so we can't get in touch directly! + + +In short: don't demand anything from us unless you are ready to pay for it, work for it +yourself or propose a mutually beneficial scenario.

The whole Internet got better in +a matter of seconds. + + +What are your contributions to Kiwi TCMS +---------------------------------------- + +I mainly contribute via translating the application into my native language, Slovenian. +Currently there are +[7 languages available](https://crowdin.com/project/kiwitcms) for Kiwi TCMS so you are +more than welcome to join and add another one. +[Translating via Crowdin](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contribution.html#translation) +is very simple and requires no additional technical skills. I've also dabbled into project +documentation and proposed a few updates to it. I'm also the culprit for some +[32 issues](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/Prome88) and counting, +the majority of them being proposals for future application enhancements and few UX/UI bugs +(dĂ©formation professionnelle :-)). + +Why did you decide to contribute to Kiwi TCMS +--------------------------------------------- + +> The guys and gals from the Kiwi TCMS team provided us with an application which solved +> our pain about building, maintaining and running manual regression tests. + +They did all of that for free in their spare time! So I've decided to give something back to +the whole community. This was indeed my first +contribution to the open source world but not the last. Since then I've also +contributed to other projects which I use on a regular basis. + +> In hindsight, Kiwi TCMS converted me from an open source user to open source contributor! + + +Was there something which was hard for you during the contribution process +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Contributing to the project, as a non-developer, is very easy and intuitive by +either opening issues on GitHub or translating via Crowdin or even committing +updated documentation to git repository through GitHub Desktop client. +All of the aforementioned was new to me and I've learned in depth how to use +these tools. I've also had the pleasure to familiarize myself with project documentation +- Sphinx and reStructuredText are my two new best friends. + + +Which is the best part of contributing to Kiwi TCMS +--------------------------------------------------- + +Being able to actively improve an application that we use on a daily basis in our +development process. Getting to know more people from all around the globe and see their +insights about software quality assurance thus learning something new every day. + +What is next for you in professional and open source plan +--------------------------------------------------------- + +Professionally I'm 100% committed to [Better (by Marand)](http://better.care) and helping us achieve +the best standard of quality for health care applications which also incorporates +using the knowledge gathered by following and/or contributing to open source. +I'm going to continue contributing to Kiwi TCMS and +Captura and if time allows maybe involve myself with some other interesting projects. + + + +*Thank you, PrimoĆŸ!

+ + Aneta Petkova - QA Chapter Lead at SumUp + + +

+ Aneta is a software engineer navigating the complex field of QA + since her first "grownup" job. She's been working in the area of + test automation for web applications using different programming languages and tools. + + Her mission is to inspire people to think about quality from the + very inception of ideas and to blur the line between developers and + QA specialists. +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
+ + +What is your professional background +------------------------------------ + +I have an engineering degree in computer science and I've spend the last 8 years in Quality Assurance. +Java, TestNG and UI automation with Selenium WebDriver are my strongest technical skills but +I use different programming languages and tools. + +> I believe languages and tools should only support an engineer and never define them. + +Currently I am the QA Chapter Lead at [SumUp](https://sumup.com/), +where I can work towards achieving my goals in an amazing team of people that do what they love. + + +When did you use open source for the first time +----------------------------------------------- + +The first time I remember was in 2011, but I've probably used it before and just didn't pay attention. +To me it seemed the same as proprietary, and I guess that means it was good. + + +Describe your contributions to the project +------------------------------------------ + +I created [kiwitcms-junit-plugin](https://github.com/kiwitcms/junit-plugin/). +This is a native Java library which you can install via Maven Central. It +will discover your automated test suite and publish test execution results in +Kiwi TCMS. This plugin is very simple and requires only minimal configuration +before it is ready to work. +Check-out the example in [TP-25](https://tcms.kiwitcms.org/plan/25/)! + +*editor comment:* Aneta and Ivo (Kiwi TCMS) hosted the +["Git crash course" workshop at HackConf 2018](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5sp0e7LsDc). +Kiwi TCMS will be hosting 2 workshops this year so stay tuned! + + +Why did you decide to contribute to Kiwi TCMS +--------------------------------------------- + +I had recently switched Java for Ruby and I was feeling nostalgic. +Also, I had spent my entire career so far in QA and I wanted to slip on +the developer shoes for at least a little bit. + + +Was there something which was hard for you during the contribution process +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +I'm used to working in a team and when I started working on this project +I was the only active Java developer. Luckily for me, I live in the time of StackOverflow, +so I managed to get most of my questions answered by strangers on the Internet. + +> I learned tons of stuff, but mostly I learned I can build software, not just test it! + + +Which is the best part of contributing to Kiwi TCMS +--------------------------------------------------- + +Doing something that has the potential to help others and that could be improved upon. + + +What is next for you in professional and open source plan +--------------------------------------------------------- + +My current focus is moving slightly into DevOps direction and I am really overwhelmed +by the amount of things to learn. I feel there is so much I want to experiment with. +I am not really planning anything related to open source - it has never been a goal for me - +but when I come across a project I feel strongly about, I'd probably be tempted to contribute. + + +*Thank you, Aneta!

It focuses on discovering +issues which may lead to security vulnerabilities. We have resolved all such +issues in our own source code but we also execute Bandit against the entire +Python dependency stack.

See +[patternfly-migration](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/milestone/3) milestone. + +**Goal:** where FE sends AJAX requests to BE views replace with JSON RPC API instead. + +**Extra:** start tackling the JavaScript mess that we have. This depends and is related +to Patternfly migration and overall refactoring. + +**Extra:** make it easier for downstream installations to extend and override parts +of Kiwi TCMS in order for users to adjust the system to their own needs. +The system is pretty flexible as-is but there have been requests, +both online and offline, to provide some extra features! We'll start looking +into them, likely making partial progress in the next 12 months. + + +Community +--------- + +Last year Kiwi TCMS had massive success at every single conference that we've been to. +Both project and team have been well received.

Expect new feedback to +become available under GitHub Issues. + +**Extra:** see what we can do about testing productivity! This has always been +part of our mission but we have not been able to produce anything worth sharing. +We do have ideas in this space but we are generally looking for partnerships and collaborations. +It is very likely that there will not be very much progress on this front +because it is hard to define it properly :-(. + + +Summary +------- + +At the end of the day most of these goals compliment each other and help drive all of +them to completion. Many of the still on-boarding people have expressed desire to +improve their Python & Django skills. Working to resolve issues in the above specific +areas will give them this opportunity!

He arrived just on +time to meet with new folks and have a glass of wine before taking his turn with the judges. + +Open Source Speed Dating is a format where projects pitch to a team of 3 judges who then +follow up with various questions. Their goal is to assess how suitable your project is +for the money they are giving away but also how would actually receiving an award help the project. +You do get guidance how to prepare and what sort of information the judges are looking for. +However you have no idea who the other participants are and who are you competing against! +All you have is a 15 minutes slot where you have to give the best of you and hope it is +enough. + +Afterwards we reunited together, did even more walking, played the SPACESHIP at +*Let Me Out* escape room and finished with a mandatory team dinner in the hearth of Brussels. + +Following an internal selection process and due diligence we finally received the award. +[$10,000 for open source](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms/transactions)! + +As a side note we also got to know who the other winners are, which can be seen from +[Open Source Speed Dating records](https://opencollective.com/open-source-speed-dating/transactions): +F-Droid, ossia, MNT Research GmbH and Kiwi TCMS! + + +We’re giving all of it to our community +--------------------------------------- + +All money from the [Kiwi TCMS Collective](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms/) +will be going towards funding development tasks. +Like Alex told the judges - this will help us enable more hands working on Kiwi TCMS +and complete pending work faster.

Experienced black-box testers often develop a hunch for where bugs my be +and it is not uncommon for them to discover some obscure problems nobody else thought +about. More often than not the basis for this is developing an understanding/expectation +how the SUT works by careful exploration during many iterations. Thus being able to +explore a SUT, observe its behavior, keep mental notes about possible relations +between input-behavior-output and analyzing what is happening under the hood becomes +an important skill for testers. + +The idea for having something unknown to explore & train your skills first comes +from [James Lyndsay’s Black Box Puzzles](http://blackboxpuzzles.workroomprds.com/) and +was more recently implemented by +[Claudiu Draghia](http://blog.brainforit.com/2017/02/06/black-boxes-for-black-box-testing/). +Now it's our turn! + + +Project description +------------------- + +Pionir will be developing hardware black boxes for teaching exploratory testing in +cooperation with Kiwi TCMS. We have dedicated +[€2000 from our bounty program](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms/expenses/18960) +for students of the free school towards completing this project. + +> The goal of the project is to produce at least 3 boxes and reference designs that will +> serve as a didactic tool for teaching, but also be free and open hardware, and as such, +> available to everyone to build from source. +> +> This project will be trusted to the students of the free school who will get opportunity +> to take part in the challenging process of building a digital appliance, +> from designing the machine logic, to develop and prototype hardware. + +The project includes designing, assembling, programming, documenting and delivering this +hardware to us! Everything is expected to be open source: list of components, +assembly instructions, 3D design files, source code, documentation and instructions! +Our goal is that this will be relatively cheap and easy to build so everyone else +can build their own boxes. +During the next several months there will be new repositories created under + to host the various boxes. + +The black boxes are expected to be available in October 2020 - just in time for the +upcoming conference season where members of the larger testing and open source +communities will be able to practice with them! + + + +Call for sponsors +----------------- + +We are also calling upon teams and organizations who use Kiwi TCMS in their +testing workflows. Please consider making a one-time donation or +becoming a regular sponsor via our +[Collective](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms#section-contribute). +You can contribute as low as € 1!

The focus here +is on integration testing, manual & semi-automated workflows for important functionality +that should never regress and is hard or impossible to cover via unit tests. + +The proposal is lead by Alexandre Neto, Giovanni Manghi and Alexander Bruy! + +

We think Quay.io +delivers the best price/quality ratio for our own use-case.

+Hello testers, as you know our
+[friends at Pionir]({filename}2020-05-26-partnership-with-pionir.markdown)
+are working on physical hardware which can be used for interactive training and
+explanation of the Black-box testing technique. The inspiration
+comes from [James Lyndsay’s Black Box Puzzles](http://blackboxpuzzles.workroomprds.com/) and
+[Claudiu Draghia](http://blog.brainforit.com/2017/02/06/black-boxes-for-black-box-testing/).
+
+
+We have the source code of 3 boxes already published at
+ but still missing bill of materials,
+design files for 3D printing and some basic instructions how to put everything
+together. There was a delay in delivery of some components but most of the work
+is close to completion. You may subscribe to
+[issues for each box](https://github.com/kiwitcms/black-boxes/issues) to follow
+the progress! Here are some images & videos from the development process.
+
+
+Wason 2-4-6 box

+We are happy to announce that Kiwi TCMS is going to partner with the
+[MLH Fellowship](https://fellowship.mlh.io/programs/open-source)
+open source program which is a 12 week internship alternative for
+students interested in becoming software engineers.
+
+[Major League Hacking (MLH)](https://mlh.io) is a mission-driven B-Corp focused
+on empowering our next generation of technologists. Every year, more than

+They are headquartered in the Greater New York Area, USA but operate world-wide.
+
+
+Fellowship program
+------------------
+
+The Fall 2020 cohort runs between October 5 - December 21 and we're already
+into the Contributing phase of the program.
+Fellow students will be working on
+[open issues](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues) from our backlog with
+a focus on tasks from our
+[open source bounty program](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/milestone/4)
+but they can really work on any open task!
+
+Once a pull request has been made it will undergo first round code review
+by [*Cory Massaro*](https://github.com/flosincapite)
+who is the dedicated MLH Python mentor. Once Cory gives the +1
+each pull request will be reviewed by a member of the Kiwi TCMS core team like usual.
+
+To minimize the risk of conflicts between contributors we are going to apply
+the following rules:
+
+- Each MLH fellow would add a comment on the issue they are
+  interested in (applies to other contributors too);
+- The issue will be assigned to them (new);
+- The issue will be labeled with the
+  [**MLH Fellowship**](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22MLH+Fellowship%22)
+  label (new);
+- The following comment will be added:
+    *This issue/bounty has been assigned to an MLH fellow who is currently
+    working on it. Pull requests towards the same issue from other contributors
+    will not be considered at this time. Please pick something else to work on!*
+
+Upon successful completion of tasks all MLH fellows will be eligible to claim their
+bounties via [our Open Collective page](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms). This is
+the same process other contributors go through, there is no difference.
+
+Kiwi TCMS commits 2 core-team members who will serve office hours
+on the [MLH Fellowship Discord](https://discord.gg/w7F55kn) server for
+couple of hours per week in order to answer questions and keep the ball rolling.
+We also commit to having bi-weekly meetings with MLH mentor(s) during the
+duration of the program.
+
+Kiwi TCMS would also like to thank our friend

+Title: Kiwi TCMS is partnering with Vola Software
+Headline: to provide open source opportunities for youngsters

+
+
+We are happy to announce that Kiwi TCMS is going to partner with
+[Vola Software](https://volasoftware.com/) to provide 2 interns with
+opportunities for hacking open source and bootstrapping their careers!
+
+Vola Software is a custom software development company
+in one of the poorest regions of the European Union and a long-time contributor
+to their local ecosystem via
+[Vratsa Software Community](https://school.vratsasoftware.com/).
+They are located in Vratsa, Bulgaria.
+
+
+Internship program
+------------------
+
+[Alexander Tsvetanov](https://github.com/Allexander203) and
+[Vladislav Ankov](https://github.com/vladi1337) are joining the Kiwi TCMS team
+for a 10 month adventure until the end of July 2021 with the opportunity
+to continue for another year afterwards!
+
+Both Sasho and Vladi are students in the Professional Technical Gymnasium
+in Vratsa and are required to work part-time as junior software developers during the
+last 2 years of their education. Given that they have very limited practical
+experience and the additional red tape around hiring youngsters many software
+companies directly avoid such kind of relationship. This creates a catch-22
+circle for both employers who are looking to hire somewhat experienced young people
+and youngsters who are looking to advance their practical skills.
+
+Here's where Kiwi TCMS steps-in! What better way to improve practical knowledge
+than contributing to an actively used and actively maintained open source software!
+We are nearing the 200K downloads mark on Docker Hub so changes made by
+Sasho and Vladi will be visible to a very big pool of our users and customers!
+
+Both have already started their open source adventure last week and are currently
+going through some training. However they were faced with real problems which
+resulted in
+[bug discovery](https://github.com/python-bugzilla/python-bugzilla/issues/134)
+and a
+[pull request](https://github.com/python-bugzilla/python-bugzilla/pull/135) for
+**python-bugzilla** underlined by a
+[20 years old issue in Python](https://bugs.python.org/issue41965).
+How's that for a start ?
+
+
+Administrative
+--------------
+
+Vola Software is the direct employer for Sasho and Vladi because they have the
+necessary permits and experience required for hiring youngsters. Kiwi TCMS is
+the direct technical mentor and will be acting as a customer to Vola Software!
+
+Vola Software will be paying a minimal salary to our interns as required by law.
+Kiwi TCMS will reimburse the full amount while Vola Software
+will be covering their accounting and administrative expenses.
+Both Sasho and Vladi will also be eligible for our
+[open source bounty-program](/blog/tags/bounty-program/) as an extra stimulation!
+
+All expenses will be fully transparent and visible via
+[our Open Collective page](https://opencollective.com/kiwitcms/expenses/)!

+Title: SEDC Academy For Software Testing is running Kiwi TCMS
+Headline: to equip future testers with practical tools and skills from the get go
+date: 2020-10-18 17:25
+comments: true
+og_image: images/sedc/partnership_banner.png
+twitter_image: images/sedc/partnership_banner.png
+tags: community
+
+
+Hello testers,
+recently we had a chat with
+[Gjore Zaharchev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gjorezaharchev/),
+a QA manager at Seavus and Testing Coach at
+SEDC Software Testing Academy in Skopje. Here is their story
+and how they use Kiwi TCMS!
+
+[Seavus Educational and Development Center](https://www.sedc.mk/)
+is a private company as part of the Seavus Group and a specialized
+training center for education of staff in the fields of programming,
+design, computer networks and software testing.
+Around 90 students pass through their software testing academy every year
+with 60 students enrolled thus far. The training program is 6 months
+and covers many basic IT skills, manual testing, ISTQB fundamentals and
+automation testing. SEDC is located in Skopje, North Macedonia.
+
+Hands-On Lab Activities
+-----------------------
+
+The study program includes multiple individual and team projects, intermediate
+exams and a final project. These are intended to exercise the most commonly used
+test design techniques and practice writing up the test scenarios. All
+scenarios are written directly in Kiwi TCMS. We've even seen test plans and
+test cases created during Christmas and the New Year holidays last year!
+
+
+The software under test is usually the programs developed by students
+from our *Academy for Programming*, says Gjore.
+Later in the program we use real websites in order to show some bugs in the
+wild, he continues. On occasion students have found interesting problems with the websites of
+*Booking.com* and *WizzAir*. They've also managed to find a critical issue on
+one of our local systems. These are the trials and tribulations of
+teaching & testing in the wild.
+
+> Kiwi TCMS team still remembers one of Alex's training sessions where we used
+> the website of an actual cinema. Unfortunately they went out of business
+> and shutdown the victimized website right in the middle of the session. ;-)
+
+
+
+Why did you decide to use Kiwi TCMS
+-----------------------------------
+
+When searching for a TCMS platform for the academy one of the decisive
+factors was cost. By being open source Kiwi TCMS has the side benefit of
+having zero initial usage cost which was very important for us.
+Regardless of that Kiwi TCMS is very easy to install & setup using Docker,
+very easy to on-board new users and generally well received by everyone.
+
+> This is a huge benefit for students because they can experiment with Kiwi TCMS
+> and immediately see how some items work when executing testing workflows.
+> For example they can visualize how a regression test run looks like compared
+> to a test run for a critical security fix; or they can simulate working in
+> groups to cover execution of a larger test plan.
+
+
+What do your students say
+-------------------------
+
+Overall they like the workflow and can easily navigate within the user interface.
+They feel very positive because there is no complexity in the system and
+it is very intuitive. One of the areas which often receives questions is
+the ability to record test automation results!
+
+*Answer: Kiwi TCMS has the ability to fetch names and test results directly, via
+plugins for several
+[test automation frameworks](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins/automation-frameworks.html)
+while others are on our backlog -
+[TestNG](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/692),
+[Jenkins](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1072),
+[C#/NUnit](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/2020)!
+Anyone interested is welcome to ***Subscribe*** to each GitHub issue and follow the progress.
+Some issues are also part of our
+[open source bounty program]({tag}bounty-program) so we urge students to
+take a look and contribute!*
+
+
+Anything you want to ask our team
+---------------------------------
+
+At SEDC we'd like to know what are your plans for Kiwi TCMS in the future?
+
+*Answer: Our plans, like our software, are transparent, check-out posts
+[tagged roadmap]({tag}roadmap)! For 2020 this is refactoring of the
+last remaining legacy bits, continue work on our Telemetry feature and
+more work towards integration with various bug trackers and test automation
+frameworks. An extension to that is tighter integration with the GitHub
+platform!*

+Title: Roadmap status report for 2020
+Headline: goals 65% complete
+date: 2020-12-31 14:07
+author: Alexander Todorov
+comments: true
+tags: community, roadmap
+
+Another year rolls out and despite all difficulties it is by far the
+strongest one for Kiwi TCMS!
+
+
+Stats
+-----
+
+- 2 physical events and a few virtual ones
+- 12 releases
+- 24 language translations
+- 683 PRs, most of them closed & merged
+- Reached Issue/PR number 2000
+- Reached 5000 commits
+- Reached 8000 registrations via 
+- Reached 270K downloads via Docker Hub
+
+
+Status update
+-------------
+
+From the [2020 roadmap]({filename}2020-01-17-roadmap2020.markdown) we've
+established 3 main areas to work on. Their completeness scores are:
+
+    1) Team - 30%
+    2) Technical - 70%
+    3) Community - 100%
+
+
+Average score is 65% completion!
+
+
+Team
+----
+
+Overall the team has stalled its growth and improvement. Contributors which
+started onboarding a year ago are still under-productive and do not meet
+our criteria to become core-team members.
+The average team productivity is far beyond the goal of 1PR/week/person.
+This is largely due to contributors not being active on their items,
+very long periods between pull requests and longer than average time
+for closing pull requests.
+
+The only positive side in this area is that core-team has improved its internal
+processes, is meeting regularly, discusses issues with
+members when they arise and relatively quickly spots problems and acts
+on them.
+
+
+Technical
+---------
+
+The dominating effort this year was refactoring the remaining legacy UI
+and converting everything to PatternFly. The effect of this is
+reduced code complexity and improved CodeClimate score/technical debt,
+removed vendored-in JavaScript dependencies and lots of unused code
+in favor of using the existing API.
+
+Additional work has been done on closing bugs, implementing some features,
+integration with new bug tracking systems and improvements around the
+telemetry feature.
+
+However there is still a lot of work to be done until all telemetry
+pages are complete. There are also around 30 pylint issues remaining
+which require internal refactoring and more legacy code cleanup. It's
+getting there but it's also getting harder.
+
+
+Community
+---------
+
+This area turned out to be our strongest one this year. We started
+very strong at FOSDEM 2020 and collaborated with multiple communities on
+plugins, code & translation contributions, adoption of Kiwi TCMS and
+general partnerships around open source.
+
+Kiwi TCMS got a substantial grant from the Mozilla foundation which
+helped bootstrap our open source bounty program and internship
+program.
+
+In May we reached 100K downloads on Docker Hub then in October we've
+surpassed 200K. Next month we'll reach 300K!
+
+
+Summary
+-------
+
+2020 was definitely a year full with uncertainties and hardship.
+It was not what we were used to and there were many ideas and
+lead projects that looked very promising in the beginning of the
+year but didn't materialize for a multitude of reasons.
+
+Overall Kiwi TCMS, its team and its community did very well and I am
+confident that next year we can achieve more together!
+
+
+Happy Testing and Happy New Year!

+Title: Project roadmap 2021

+
+Hello testers,
+this blog post outlines Kiwi TCMS roadmap for 2021 and what we feel is
+important to us!
+
+roadmap image 2021
+
+
+Project sustainability
+======================
+
+The big goal towards which we are striving is to turn Kiwi TCMS into a
+sustainable open source project. For now this means three key areas:
+
+    1) Team
+    2) Technical
+    3) Community & Adoption
+
+Team
+----
+
+Right now we have a core team with 3 members, 3 more members on-boarding
+and 2 interns. In the past year we weren't successful into turning more
+people into core-team members.
+I have seen several problems and core-team will significantly reconsider
+how we approach & recruit people to join the team, how we on-board and help
+them so that they can become productive and fully fledged team members.
+
+Long term focus is improving and strengthening core-team which also implies
+a level of responsibility and performance criteria which core-team members
+must meet.
+
+**Goal:** 1 PR/week/person as broad measure of individual performance so that
+we can operate with a predictable capacity.
+
+**Goal:** (re)structure internal team processes around candidates and newcomers!
+Note: These are not public at the moment.
+
+
+Technical
+---------
+
+The areas shown on the picture above will receive more priority.
+
+**Goal:** complete remaining [Telemetry features]({filename}2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown).
+
+**Goal:** complete remaining refactoring with major focus in pylint issues, migration to
+Patternfly v4 and eslint issues.
+
+**Goal:** improve SSL configuration with strong bias towards Let's Encrypt being
+configured by default.
+
+**Goal:** provide support for web hooks so that Kiwi TCMS can be integrated more
+easily/flexibly with 3rd party systems. We're aiming for Kiwi TCMS to be able to
+POST webhooks to external URLs and inform them about events in the system.
+
+Community & Adoption
+--------------------
+
+Last year Kiwi TCMS had massive success despite not visiting many events. The
+open source community spirit is important to us both in terms of technical
+collaborations and in terms of features & exposure which drives further adoption
+of Kiwi TCMS downstream.
+
+**Goal:** complete
+[bug-tracker integration milestone](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/milestone/1).
+
+
+**Goal:** extended GitHub integration via GitHub actions which will report results
+into our database. We do have other ideas as stretch goals.
+
+**Goal:** similar to GitHub actions we're looking towards GitLab pipelines and
+similar integration with GitLab.
+
+**Goal:** continue our collaboration with Major League Hacking Fellowship program.
+
+**Goal:** apply for the Google Summer of Code program and work with students if selected.

+
+Dear open source hackers, we are happy to share that Kiwi TCMS has
+applied to
+[Google Summer of Code 2021](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/)
+as a mentoring organization!
+
+While we're very early in the program
+[timeline](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline)
+and we still don't know whether Kiwi TCMS will be accepted or not we'd
+like to use this opportunity and outline several areas which are good
+candidates for GSoC fellows to work on. Some of the tasks are also
+eligible for our [open source bounty program]({tag}bounty-program).
+The majority of them require some knowledge of Python and Django.
+
+
+Let's Encrypt SSL integration
+-----------------------------
+
+By default Kiwi TCMS' container image comes with a self-signed SSL certificate!
+This is irritating because all modern browsers issue warnings for that and
+the majority of deployments do not have the infrastructure to distribute
+the self-signing Certificate Authority certificate files, e.g. make the browser
+trust the provided certificate.
+
+This issue is compounded by the fact that production SSL certificates,
+issues by a well-known authority must be introduced from the outside. While
+this is
+[documented](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installing_docker.html#ssl-configuration)
+there are fair amount of testers who do not have sufficient proficiency
+with Docker to do so.
+
+The result is that we see many Kiwi TCMS deployments in the wild which
+completely disable HTTPS and users struggling to configure their SSL
+certificates.
+
+An integration with [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) would be
+a good choice. We've tried a proof of concept but had troubles running
+their official client on our container image.
+
+The challenge will be
+to use a Let's Encrypt client that is supported on the CentOS Linux
+distribution (that's what we use) or a frequently maintained
+distribution independent package. Another challenge will be that the
+ACME protocol used needs to be able to talk back to the system
+asking for a new certificate. In most cases Kiwi TCMS will be deployed
+behind a firewall and initial certificate request/renewal requests may be
+able to go one way only.
+
+
+Securing 3rd party dependencies
+-------------------------------
+
+Kiwi TCMS itself uses services and tools like Snyk, npm audit, Coverity and Bandit
+against our own and against 3rd party source code. On the other hand
+some of our components (e.g. PatternFly) do not perform any kind of
+security testing. The starting point to unravel this is
+[Issue #871](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/871).
+
+As a minimum all issues reported by bandit & coverity against 3rd party
+dependencies must be sorted out:
+
+- Figure out if we execute our tools in the appropriate way as to not
+  report unnecessary issues
+- Dissect all of the issues, especially
+  [ones from Bandit](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/runs/1608837125?check_suite_focus=true),
+  report them to their upstream community, discuss and decide how to fix or
+  ignore the issue and send a pull request to upstream
+- Figure out how to keep track/dashboard whether or not all of our runtime
+  dependencies are using the same tools as we are (they are either open source
+  or free to use for open source projects) since they seem to be good tools
+- Work with any upstream (2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc level dependencies) communities
+  to adopt said tools and fix issues as they are discovered
+
+All of this will ultimately benefit a broader community than Kiwi TCMS alone.
+
+
+Integration with GitHub Actions and GitLab pipelines
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+As part of our continuing integration with GitHub we need to have an action
+which would report the results to Kiwi TCMS similar to how our
+[automation framework plugins](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins/automation-frameworks.html)
+do!
+
+You should start with GitHub because this is what Kiwi TCMS uses and we can
+immediately eat our own dog food. Originally proposed in
+[Issue #817](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/817) then moved to
+[github-app #10](https://github.com/kiwitcms/github-app/issues/10) with a
+slightly different focus.
+
+Next (or in parallel) would be similar
+functionality for GitLab pipelines, proposed in
+[Issue #1421](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1421)
+
+
+Java hacking
+------------
+
+Kiwi TCMS does have a native
+[junit-plugin](https://github.com/kiwitcms/junit-plugin) but we are no
+experts in Java. In the testing world however Java is a very popular
+language and we need help building on top of the existing library and
+developing several other tools:
+
+- [Issue #692](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/692) - TestNG plugin
+- [Issue #1072](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1072) - Jenkins plugin,
+  probably similar in scope to the proposed GitHub/GitLab integration above
+- [Issue #1512](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1512) - extension for the
+  existing junit-plugin. Similar extension will likely be necessary for the
+  TestNG plugin as well
+- Integration with Katalon Studio proposed at
+  . There isn't much info to
+  begin with so if you have working experience with Katalon Studio it would be
+  a plus
+- Fixing assorted
+  [issues in our junit plugin](https://github.com/kiwitcms/junit-plugin/issues)
+- Help upgrade to junit-jupiter v5.7.0, looks like API has changed and our
+  plugin doesn't automatically discover the tests.
+  See 
+
+
+C# and Objective-C hacking
+--------------------------
+
+- [Issue #2020](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/2020) - reporting plugin for
+  NUnit, similar to other existing
+  [automation framework plugins](https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins/automation-frameworks.html).
+  We're not sure how popular NUnit vs other test runners in the C# world is but
+  it could be a good basis for developing future plugins. The challenge here
+  is mostly for us since we're a Linux based team
+- [Issue #1316](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1316) - reporting plugin
+  for *Kiwi-bdd* a simple BDD for iOS. Again the challenge here would be
+  on us since we don't have experience building and testing applications on iOS
+
+
+Migration to Patternfly v4, possibly with React JS
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+The visual component library that Kiwi TCMS uses is called
+[PatternFly](https://www.patternfly.org). First it is a standard describing
+visual design, widget behavior and development hints for enterprise
+applications. Then it provides an actual implementation of their standards.
+
+Kiwi TCMS is built with PatternFly v3 using raw HTML + CSS. This approach
+allowed us to get started quickly and gradually migrate from our legacy UI.
+It also works very well with Django which is structured around rendering HTML
+templates.
+
+A major task is switching over to PatternFly v4 where there could be some
+differences in component syntax.
+
+Since Kiwi TCMS v8.8 and v8.9 we have completely redesigned the
+TestPlan and TestRun pages. As they are the ones with the most possible
+interactivity and functionality we have hit the need to keep internal state
+on the front-end. This is rather cumbersome to manage by hand and calls
+for a more modern solution using React. There is PatternFly implementation
+as React components too.
+
+The starting point is
+[Issue #1323](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1323).
+
+The volume of work is a challenge because all pages need to be migrated
+and we're not sure if this can be done and released in steps or all pages
+should be migrated and released together. In other words we don't know if
+shipping UI based on both PatternFly v3 and v4 will work.
+
+The next challenge is refactoring the TestRun and TestPlan pages with
+React, keeping all existing functionality intact. A challenge here will
+also be the transactional nature of Django where it receives a browser request
+and sends a response, usually rendered HTML content! Lots of functionality
+happens both on the backend as well as in the HTML templates themselves -
+for example translations and permission checks.
+
+
+JavaScript hacking
+------------------
+
+- [Issue #1281](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1281) - start using ESLint
+  against our code base and clean-up all related issues
+- [Issue #1910](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1910) - replace SimpleMDE
+  with EasyMDE. Ideally we would like to depend on other active open source
+  libraries and the rich text editor what we use looks like it needs replacement.
+  We've got a few extra features hooked into the editor like syntax highlighting
+  with dynamic loading of language definitions, support for inline attachments and
+  a security override. All of these need to be kept in place.
+- [Issue #1919](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1919) - reconsider using
+  MomentJS. Well it looks like its original authors encourage everyone to
+  actually stop using it and we should consider doing so as well. As it stands
+  MomentJS is not widely used inside Kiwi TCMS except for timezone conversions
+  in the browser. Should be relatively easy to replace, preferably with a vanilla
+  JavaScript implementation. Either way we first need to know what actually
+  has to be done.
+
+
+Remaining telemetry
+-------------------
+
+[Testing Telemetry]({filename}2019-03-03-telemetry.markdown) is one of our cool
+features and since we've started to redesign the legacy report feature testers
+are very happy with it. There are still some bits and pieces that are missing:
+[Issue #616](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/616),
+[Issue #1923](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1923),
+[Issue #1924](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1924),
+[Issue #1925](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1925),
+[Issue #1926](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1926),
+[Issue #1927](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1927),
+[Issue #1928](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1928),
+[Issue #1929](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1929),
+[Issue #1940](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1940).
+
+These generally depend on having the ability to record execution times in our
+database and afterwards the features are similar but relatively independent
+of one another.
+
+
+Web hooks
+---------
+
+Kiwi TCMS should be able to better integrate with 3rd party systems.
+This feature will allow users to configure custom URL to which Kiwi TCMS will send
+HTTP POST requests on certain events. It looks like we can base the implementation
+on top of [django-rest-hooks](https://github.com/zapier/django-rest-hooks) and
+pair it up with [RestrictedPython](https://restrictedpython.readthedocs.io/)
+for further flexibility.
+
+This feature is being tracked in
+[Issue #1080](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1080) and
+[Issue #913](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/914) but needs a more
+detailed definition.
+
+
+Anything else
+-------------
+
+All of the proposals above are items which we have in our backlog and
+need help with. However participation in the Google Summer of Code program
+is not limited only to them. You are free to propose any other ideas/projects
+on which you would like to work during the summer. We would be happy to
+accept your contributions if we make it into the program.
+
+
+Happy Testing!

+
+API
+~~~
+
+.. warning::

+.. important::
+
+    All ``.filter()`` methods now return distinct records!
+
+- New method ``PlanType.create()``
+- Method ``TestCase.add_component()`` now returns a serialized ``Component``
+  instead of a serialized ``TestCase``. Refs
+  `Issue #2145 `_
+- Methods ``Product.filter()``, ``Product.create()`` and ``Product.update()``:
+
+  - change input parameter ``classification_id`` to ``classification`` - type int
+  - change result field ``classification_id`` to ``classification`` - type int
+- Method ``Category.filter()`` changes result field
+  ``product_id`` to ``product`` - type int

+    attached to a test case
+- Methods ``Version.filter()`` and ``Version.create()``:
+
+  - change input parameter ``product_id`` to ``product`` - type int
+  - change result field ``product_id`` to ``product`` - type int
+- Method ``Tag.filter()`` now returns additional fields: 
+  ``bugs``, ``case``, ``plan`` and ``run`` which causes existing queries to
+  return similar records attached to different parent objects. Consumers of these
+  results should be updated
+- Methods ``TestPlan.filter()``, ``TestPlan.create()`` and ``TestPlan.update()``:
+
+  - change input parameter ``author_id`` to ``author`` - type int
+  - change input parameter ``parent_id`` to ``parent`` - type int
+  - change input parameter ``product_id`` to ``product`` - type int

+to work on
+[20+ issues](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22MLH+Fellowship%22)
+the majority of which have been complete.

+For that we kindly ask the open source community to nominate Kiwi TCMS at the
+[MLH Open Source Awards](https://fellowship.mlh.io/opensourceawards).
+
+
+*Steps to reproduce:*
+
+1. Go to 
+2. Click the **Submit a Nomination** button
+3. Follow the instructions on screen!
+
+
+*Expected results:*

+1. It should take you 2 minutes
+2. Your submission is recorded by MLH

+Why are we doing this
+---------------------
+
+MLH is recognizing extraordinary open source projects and communities. It is up to you,
+our community members and the general public to decide whether Kiwi TCMS qualifies
+or not. Winning this award will let us show what we do before a larger audience!

+
+Changes since Kiwi TCMS 10.4
+----------------------------
+
+Improvements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Update django from 3.2.7 to 3.2.9
+- Update django-colorfield from 0.4.3 to 0.4.5
+- Update django-extensions from 3.1.3 to 3.1.5
+- Update django-grappelli from 2.15.1 to 2.15.3
+- Update django-tree-queries from 0.6.0 to 0.7.0
+- Update jira from 3.0.1 to 3.1.1
+- Update markdown from 3.3.4 to 3.3.6
+- Update mysqlclient from 2.0.3 to 2.1.0
+- Update psycopg2 from 2.9.1 to 2.9.2
+- Display a warning if connection doesn't use HTTPS (Ivajlo Karabojkov)
+- Account registration page can be turned on/off via settings. Fixes
+  `Issue #2500 `_
+- TestCase Search page can now filter by TestPlan. Fixes
+  `Issue #2283 `_
+- Allow template selection when creating new test case. Fixes
+  `Issue #957 `_
+- TestCase page now allows specification of properties, e.g. mobile devices
+  on which the test should be executed. This feature serves as a building
+  block for
+  `Issue #1843 `_,
+  `Issue #1931 `_ and
+  `Issue #1344 `_ but isn't active anywhere else inside
+  Kiwi TCMS at the moment
+- TestExecution properties will be displayed inside TestRun page if they
+  have been specified
+- Rearrange help-text in admin page for better visibility
+- Switch to official Postgres image from Docker Hub
+- Switch to official MariaDB image from Docker Hub
+
+**Warning:**
+
+    For Postgres data dir changed from ``/var/lib/pgsql/data`` to ``/var/lib/postgres/data``.
+    Environment variables inside docker-compose file changed as well,
+    see ``docker-compose.postgres``.
+
+    For MariaDB data dir changed from ``/var/lib/mysql/data`` to ``/var/lib/mysql``.
+    ``MYSQL_CHARSET`` & ``MYSQL_COLLATION`` environment variables are no longer
+    recognized. Instead they are present as command line options passed to the container,
+    see ``docker-compose.yml``. Previous workaround for these variables was also removed.
+
+    If you want to migrate from the previous ``centos/mariadb-103-centos7`` or
+    ``centos/postgresql-12-centos7`` containers to ``mariadb:latest`` and ``postgres:latest``
+    make sure to update your container control files!
+
+
+Settings
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- New setting ``REGISTRATION_ENABLED``, default ``True``, Can be controlled via
+  environment variable ``KIWI_REGISTRATION_ENABLED``. When set to ``False``
+  will disable account registration page
+
+
+Database
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- New model ``testcases.Property``
+- New model ``testcases.Template``
+- New model ``testruns.TestExecutionProperty``
+- Remove ``unique_together`` constraint for ``testruns.TestExecution`` model.
+  This makes it possible to add multiple executions for the same test case in
+  the same test run
+
+**Warning:**
+
+    These newly added models create additional permission labels with names
+    *testcases | template | Can .... template*,
+    *testcases | property | Can .... property*,
+    *testruns | test execution property | Can .... test execution property*
+
+    Execute ``manage.py refresh_permissions`` and/or assign them manually to
+    users and groups if they should be able to interact with the new objects!
+
+
+API
+~~~
+
+- Method ``TestCase.filter()`` now returns additional fields
+  ``setup_duration``, ``testing_duration``, ``expected_duration`` - all
+  serialized in seconds. Refs
+  `Issue #1923 `_ (Mfon Eti-mfon)
+- Method ``User.filter()`` will no longer return fields
+  ``groups``, ``user_permissions``, ``date_joined`` and ``last_login``
+- New method ``TestExecution.properties()``
+- New method ``TestCase.properties()``
+- New method ``TestCase.add_property()``
+- New method ``TestCase.remove_property()``
+
+
+Bug fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Unify tab size & tab indentation b/w Python & SimpleMDE. Fixes
+  `Issue #1802 `_
+- Use ``sane_list extension`` for rendering consecutive lists in markdown. Closes
+  `Issue #2511 `_
+
+**Warning:**
+
+    The visual markdown editor explicitly didn't follow markdown syntax rules
+    by allowing indentation with 2 spaces and treating tabs as 2 spaces as well.
+    See "Indentation/Tab Length" at https://python-markdown.github.io/#differences
+
+    The backend markdown rendering engine explicitly followed an undefined behavior
+    which happens to be different from what the visual markdown editor does.
+    See "Consecutive Lists" at https://python-markdown.github.io/#differences
+
+    The previous 2 changes make sure the visual editor and backend rendering engine
+    follow the same rules. This may result is "broken" display of existing text which
+    doesn't follow the markdown syntax rules. If you spot such text just edit to make
+    it render the way you wish.
+
+- Fix broken URL and minor updates to documentation
+- Update GitLab tracker integration documentation to avoid confusion. Closes
+  `Issue #2559 `_
+- Limit tag input length to 255 characters. Closes
+  `Issue #2176 `_
+- Make error notifications in Admin to display with red color
+- Select only visible rows for bulk-update in TestRun page. Fixes
+  `Issue #2222 `_
+- Remove ``Cache-Control`` header from httpd. Closes
+  `Issue #443 `_
+
+
+Refactoring and testing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Add permissions test for add-hyperlink-bulk menu. Closes
+  `Issue #716 `_
+- Add explicit tests for issue tracker integration with GitLab.com
+- Tests teardown - remove comments & close issues on GitLab.com
+- Add missing ``rlPhaseEnd`` for docker tests
+- Multiple pylint and eslint fixes
+
+
+Translations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Updated `French translation `_
+- Updated `Hungarian translation `_
+- Updated `Slovenian translation `_

+
+Attention testers! On behalf of
+[*Testing and Automation devroom*](https://fosdem-testingautomation.github.io/)
+we'd like to announce that call for participation is now open.
+
+Here are some ideas for topics that are a good fit for this devroom:
+
+Testing in the real, open source world
+
+- War stories/strategies for testing large scale or complex projects
+- Demystify resource e.g. systems/device/cloud provisioning in a CI loop
+- Tools that extend the ability to test low-level code, e.g. bootloaders, init
+systems, etc.
+- Projects that are introducing new/interesting ways of testing "systems"
+- Address the automated testing frameworks fragmentation
+- Lessons learned from testing
+
+Cool Tools (good candidates for lightning talks)
+
+- How your open source tool made developing quality software better
+- What tools do you use to setup your CI/CD
+- Combining projects/plugins/tools to build amazing things "Not enough people in
+the open source community know how to use $X, but here's a tutorial on how to
+use $X to make your project better."
+
+
+In the past the devroom has seen both newbies/students and experienced professionals and
+past speakers as part of the audience and talks covering from beginner/practical
+to advanced/abstract topics. If you have doubts then submit your proposal and
+leave a comment for the devroom managers and we'll get back to you.
+
+Checkout

+Title: Feature showcase: Test matrix generation
+Headline: available in Kiwi TCMS v11.0
+author: Alexander Todorov
+date: 2022-01-24 19:40
+comments: true
+og_image: images/features/props-and-envs/banner.png
+twitter_image: images/features/props-and-envs/banner.png
+tags: features
+
+
+The upcoming Kiwi TCMS v11 contains new functionality around TestCase parameters and
+TestRun environments which has an impact on how your final test execution matrix will
+look like. This article provides detailed information about these features but have
+in mind that they are still considered to be a technology-preview.
+
+
+Parameters
+----------
+
+Consider a login functionality which accepts email address and password. Possible states
+for these fields are:
+
+- Email address:
+    - `valid` - well formed email string, exists in database, access is allowed
+    - `invalid` - malformed email string, should not exist in the DB but this fact is not relevant to the test
+    - `disabled` - well formed email string, exists in database, access is not allowed
+
+- Password:
+    - `correct` - matches the value in database for the given email address
+    - `another` - matches the value in database which is related to another email address
+    - `wrong` - doesn't match the value in database
+    - `empty` - value is empty string, a special case of `wrong`
+    - `invalid` - value doesn't conform to predefined rules. May or may not be relevant to login functionality
+
+Depending on how the software under test is put together you can design multiple test cases.
+Fundamentally however these are the same test case and the above states are input parameters to it!
+
+**Definition: TestCase parameters are different input values which do not fundamentally affect the result of
+a test case! A TestCase with parameters will result into multiple test executions!**
+
+In other words you will be executing a parameterized test scenario multiple times with different input values!
+Inside Kiwi TCMS the actual parameter values during execution are recorded into the `TestExecution` model
+which will not change if you modify test case parameter values afterwards!
+
+**Definition: TestExecution parameters record a snapshot of TestCase parameters at the time when you intended
+to execute a particular test scenario!**
+
+
+Environments
+------------
+
+A testing environment represents the specifics of where exactly you executed your test suite.
+Consider this example:
+
+> The default desktop environment of Fedora is GNOME, but if you prefer an alternative,
+> you can download installation media which contains slightly differently defaults, e.g.
+> KDE, Xfce, MATE and others, see .
+
+Regardless of which Fedora variant you choose the expected functionallity
+of the default desktop experience is the same. However this can only be guaranteed with exhaustive
+testing across all variants. Check-out the test matrix at
+
+
+
+**Definition: a TestRun environment is a set of attributes which apply to the entire test suite
+at the time of execution. Usually you expect test results in different environments to be the same!**
+
+In Kiwi TCMS environments are represented as named containers of key/value pairs.
+The same key may have multiple values!
+They can be found under *ADMIN -> Everything else -> Environments*.
+
+Because environments are meant to affect the entire test suite they are linked to the
+`TestRun` model. When creating a new test run you can select multiple `Environment`
+records.
+
+
+Test matrix generation
+----------------------
+
+The existing behavior in Kiwi TCMS is that when a test run is created there will be only one
+test execution for every test case which is added inside this test run.
+
+In the Fedora example shown above some of the test cases also have their own parameters,
+e.g. the *QA:Testcase_desktop_app_basic* scenario.
+
+**Definition: TestRun environment key/values will be combined with TestCase parameter key/values
+to form the final test matrix! This opens up the possibility for combinatorial test execution
+generation.**
+
+Once parameters and environment(s) are specified you will start seeing multiple test executions
+for the same test case inside newly created test runs. By default a full-combination test matrix
+will be created. The other option is to [pairwise](https://www.pairwise.org/) all key/value records.
+
+**Important: test execution generation works only when creating or cloning a test run that contains
+test cases. This feature still does not work for test cases added after a test run is created!**
+
+
+Environment(s) vs Tag(s)
+------------------------
+
+Inside Kiwi TCMS you can use both environments and tags to annotate test runs.
+There are 3 important facts that hold true:
+
+- Tags possess only informational value, they don't influence how you perform testing;
+- Environments possess informational value and govern the final test matrix;
+- Environments which have a single value for each different key are the same as tags!
+
+!["Example from #1344"](/images/features/props-and-envs/env_from_1344.png "Example from #1344")
+
+If we look at this example from [Issue #1344](https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/1344) we
+can make out the following keys:
+
+- *Driver* - 2 values
+- *API* - 2 values
+- *Python* - 2 values
+- *Java* - 1 value
+- *Eclipse* - 1 value
+- *Host OS* - 1 value
+- *Target OS* - 1 value
+- *Redistributable* - 1 value
+- *Testing Type* - 1 value
+
+Here *Driver*, *API* and *Python* clearly should affect your test matrix. Otherwise there isn't
+much point in having the different values recorded in the first place. That results in a 8x
+multiplication factor for every functionality that may be affected/related to these attributes,
+presumably the entire functionality of the product under test.
+
+*Java*, *Eclipse*, *Host OS* and *Target OS* carry only informational value but they look like
+more values could be possible. If that's the case these attributes will also affect the overall
+test matrix.
+
+*Redistributable* and *Testing Type* look like information-only attributes. They don't appear
+to have any relevance to the test matrix at all. The same information-only effect can be achieved
+both with environments and with tags.
+
+**Practical rules:**
+
+1. Attributes which affect a single test case should be defined as TestCase parameters
+1. Attributes which affect all test cases in a suite should be defined as TestRun environment(s)
+1. One big TestRun is likely the best from organizational and optimizational point of view
+
+You may decide to have multiple smaller test runs, usually with 1 value per environment key,
+if you think that fits your workflow better. However you may be missing on some optimizations if you
+choose to do so.
+
+
+Real life example
+-----------------
+
+To illustrate how all of these new features work let's look at
+[Partitioning custom software RAID](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_partitioning_custom_software_RAID)
+test case from Fedora QA. It instructs the tester to install Linux and inside the
+partitioning screen create a *Software RAID* partition, format it with a filesystem and
+assign a mount point! It is expected that once installation is complete the machine will
+reboot, tester will be able to login as root and the created filesystem will be available!
+
+Factors that could affect this functionality:
+
+-  *Raid Level*: Fedora supports 7 of them - 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, 10 and linear. These are all different drivers
+   located under `/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/md`
+
+        ./linear.ko.xz
+        ./raid0.ko.xz
+        ./raid10.ko.xz
+        ./raid1.ko.xz
+        ./raid456.ko.xz
+
+- *Mount Point*: `/` for example is mounted very early in the boot process, `/home` is mounted much later.
+  `/` also relates to rescue mode, while `/home` doesn't. `/home`, if corrupted, may affect the terminal
+  login process though
+- *Encryption*: Yes/No. This is stackable on top of the RAID device and "should-just-work". However it is often
+  included into other partitioning test cases in order to discover weird issues and because it is a critical
+  functionality
+
+We may add the actual filesystem type, used to format the RAID block device,
+e.g. *xfs*, *ext3*, *ext4*, but that's not needed here! Here's how this test case looks in Kiwi TCMS:
+
+!["RAID test case"](/images/features/props-and-envs/raid-tc-with-params.png "RAID test case")
+
+
+Remember that Fedora comes with multiple variants for multiple CPU architectures! Of those we'll consider
+*Server* and *Workstation*, which are both available for the *aarch64* and *x86_64* CPU
+architectures. Here's how this can be represented inside Kiwi TCMS:
+
+!["Fedora variants represented as environment"](/images/features/props-and-envs/env-fedora-variants.png "Fedora variants represented as environment")
+
+

+

+Next we need to organize test execution for an upcoming release by creating test run(s) and
+selecting environment and matrix generation type:
+!["New test run with environment"](/images/features/props-and-envs/new-tr-with-env.png "New test run with environment")
+
+The possible outcomes are:
+
+- **112 test executions**: full test matrix between all Fedora variants and all RAID parameters
+- **56 test executions**: 4 TR x 14 TE; one TR/variant without environment; RAID parameters are pairwised
+- **16 test executions**: all Fedora variants are pairwised together with all RAID parameters
+
+Finally this is how the resulting test run looks like. Notice the 3 boxes icon for each
+test execution, listing the actual parameters which should be used during testing:
+
+!["TR with environment, TE with parameters"](/images/features/props-and-envs/tr-env-and-te-props.png "TR with environment, TE with parameters")
+
+Environment parameters are read-only here b/c they have been copied to all test execution records.
+It usually doesn't make sense to modify your environment mid-way during test execution.
+If that's needed or you've made a mistake it's probably easier to create a new test run.

+Title: Container Registry Credentials for Subscribers
+Headline: are now fully automated; here's how to use them
+date: 2022-02-27 12:40
+comments: true
+
+Kiwi TCMS subscribers had to go through a manual process of registering
+a username with our container registry, *hub.kiwitcms.eu* and email support
+before they could access private docker images. This process is now fully
+automated!
+
+!["private credentials card"](/images/private_docker_credentials.png "private credentials card")
+
+Credentials are automatically created upon subscription payment and configured for
+read-only access to respective repositories based on the type of subscription.
+You can find your credentials at the
+[subscriptions page](https://public.tenant.kiwitcms.org/github/marketplace/plans/),
+`PLUGINS -> Subscriptions`. To authenticate try
+
+    $ docker login -u="USERNAME" -p "PASSWORD-TOKEN" hub.kiwitcms.eu
+    # or
+    $ echo "PASSWORD-TOKEN" | docker login -u="USERNAME" --password-stdin hub.kiwitcms.eu
+
+
+If you would like to have access to private container repositories for Kiwi TCMS
+checkout the [containers page]({filename}pages/containers.markdown) and
+[subscribe](/#subscriptions)!
+
+
+Happy Testing!

+Title: New and updated subscription plans for Kiwi TCMS
+Headline: here's what changed
+date: 2022-03-01 10:35
+comments: true
+
+An active Kiwi TCMS subscription ensures a sustainable future for
+all open source software maintained by the Kiwi TCMS team and
+provides its holder with access to software versions and certain
+level services. Given recent changes to
+[private container credentials]({filename}2022-02-28-private-docker-credentials.markdown)
+we have refreshed our product and service definitions.
+
+
+New Self Support subscription
+-----------------------------
+
+This is an entry-level subscription which provides read-only access to version tagged
+containers of upstream Kiwi TCMS. It is suitable for experimentation,
+very small teams, development against Kiwi TCMS and convenience during upgrades.
+
+You are free to use any older or future versions of Kiwi TCMS available from
+the [kiwitcms/version]({filename}pages/containers.markdown) container repository!
+
+This subscription plan is also available via
+[GitHub Marketplace](https://github.com/marketplace/kiwi-tcms/).
+
+
+Private Tenant
+--------------
+
+This is our most popular subscription type.
+
+Starting today it also includes access
+to the [kiwitcms/version]({filename}pages/containers.markdown) container repository!
+This is suitable for teams who prefer to be hosting Kiwi TCMS on-premise instead of
+using the namespace provided under `*.tenant.kiwitcms.org`.
+
+This subscription plan is also available via
+[GitHub Marketplace](https://github.com/marketplace/kiwi-tcms/).
+
+Everything else remains the same!
+
+
+Enterprise Subscription
+-----------------------
+
+This is Kiwi TCMS tailored towards on-premise deployments in larger organizations.
+Starting today it also automatically includes 1x *Private Tenant* which can be used
+for development or experiments.
+
+Support availability has been extended by 2 hours in order to cover more geographic areas!
+
+Future features coming to enterprise subscribers -
+tools for provisioning of Kiwi TCMS inside cloud environments and aarch64 containers.
+
+Price has been increased to 400 $/mo.
+
+
+New Managed Hosting subscription
+--------------------------------
+
+This new offering is designed for the organizations which don't want to bother with provisioning
+containers, configuring DNS resolution, managing SSL certificates, regular upgrades and backups.
+The Kiwi TCMS team can do all of this for you and provide a fully isolated instance inside AWS.
+
+Support availability has been extended by 2 days, covering Saturday and Sunday. When necessary
+*Managed Hosting* subscribers have the option for video conferences with their support contact.
+
+---
+
+All changes are effective immediately. Existing customers are granted access to everything
+that's new while billing changes are not applied.
+
+
+If you prefer the "free beer" version of
+Kiwi TCMS it is available via `docker pull pub.kiwitcms.eu/kiwitcms/kiwi` - free to use
+and without any guarantees according to GPLv2.
+
+Please consider [subscribing](/#subscriptions) and help us make Kiwi TCMS better!
+
+
+Happy Testing!

+Title: Meet Kiwi TCMS at Collision 2022 in Toronto
+Headline: Thursday, Jun 23, Stand A3201

+
+
+Kiwi TCMS is happy to announce that we're taking part in
+[Collision 2022](https://collisionconf.com/), Jun 20-23 in Toronto, Canada.
+We're joining as a [featured startup](https://collisionconf.com/startups/featured-startups)
+in the *Enterprise Software Solutions* category.
+
+Kiwi TCMS will have an on-site presence on
+**Thursday, Jun 23, Stand A3201**. Check-out the map for more details:
+![venue map](/images/conf/collision/stand2022.png "venue map")
+
+
+For engineers
+-------------
+
+At the exhibition stand you will have the opportunity to perform some real
+[black-box testing]({filename}2020-10-10-black-boxes-progress-update.markdown),
+learn about Salience bias, Peltzman effect and Wason's experiments and take a photo with
+our lovely mascot.
+
+The Kiwi TCMS team will be there to answer all of your questions regarding
+open source, community, support, various integrations and the differences between
+*Self-Support*, *SaaS* and *Enterprise* [subscriptions](/#subscriptions)!
+
+!["black boxes"](/images/conf/websummit/black_boxes.png "black boxes")
+
+
+If you are a test or QA engineer please answer our survey
+. Participants may claim a small surprise at our booth!
+
+
+For startups
+------------
+
+We know that in a startup, the major strength of the people is that they are multitaskers.
+And it is often the case that the founders will perform some functional and acceptance testing
+because they know all the important use-cases.
+
+Still you need to document and organize your testing activities early on. You need to
+start collecting information about which features of the product have been tested and
+how they have been tested. That's the basis on which you can scale your QA team and
+future testing activities.
+
+If you are a fellow startup exhibitor please swing by out stand to talk about
+organizing your product testing with Kiwi TCMS. We know the drill because we're in
+the same boat!
+
+
+For partners
+------------
+
+If you are another ISV providing engineering tools, a product outsourcing company
+or a devel/testing service venture we've got a partnership proposal for you!
+
+We're interested in partners where we can integrate other products with Kiwi TCMS
+and provide a better offering; provide extra services (e.g. managed hosting) and/or
+provide more transparency to your own customers (e.g. allow them to see how their products
+are being tested).
+
+Message us via the [Collision app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.collision)
+and request a meeting or better yet, find our team on-site!
+
+Virtual press conference
+------------------------
+
+If you aren't around in Toronto please join us for a pre 2022 Collision News Conference (VIRTUAL) on
+**Wednesday, June 15, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. EDT / 17:00 - 18:00 UTC**.
+
+For more information see
+
+
+
+
+After hours
+-----------
+
+The Kiwi TCMS team will be joining the following after-hours events:
+
+- Jun 20 - [Collision: Join Us at Craft Beer Market, Toronto](https://inthecloud.withgoogle.com/collision-happy-hour/register.html)
+- Jun 22 - [Drinks & Dragons - Collision Official After Hours event by Metis Fest](https://www.eventbrite.sg/e/drinks-dragons-collision-official-after-hours-event-by-metis-fest-tickets-340062816037)

+- New setting ``EXTERNAL_ISSUE_POST_PROCESSORS``
+- New setting ``JIRA_ISSUE_TYPE``
+- New setting ``REDMINE_TRACKER_NAME``

+
+API
+~~~
+
+- If ``default_tester`` field is not specified for ``TestRun.create()`` method
+  then use the currently logged-in user.
+- Return value for method ``TestExecution.filter()`` now contains fields
+  ``expected_duration`` and ``actual_duration``. Closes
+  `Issue #1924 `_
+- Return value for method ``Bug.filter()`` now contains fields
+  ``severity__name``, ``severity__icon`` and ``severity__color``
+
+
+Bug fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Adjust field name when rendering test execution on TestRun page. Fixes
+  `Issue #2794 `_
+- Render rich text editor preview via backend API:
+
+  - Makes display on HTML pages and editor preview the same. Fixes
+    `Issue #2659 `_
+  - Fixes a bug with markdown rendered in JavaScript. Fixes
+    `Issue #2711 `_
+- Stop propagation of HTML unescape which causes display issues with
+  code snippets that contain XML values. Fixes
+  `Issue #2800 `_
+- Show bug text only when creating new records, not when editing
+- Properly display & validate related form fields when editing bugs
+- Don't send duplicate emails when editing bugs. Fixes
+  `Issue #2782 `_
+
+
+Refactoring and testing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Convert two assignment statements to augmented source code. Closes
+  `Issue #2610 `_ (Markus Elfring)
+- Rename method ``IssueTrackerType.report_issue_from_testexecution()``:
+
+  - Rename to ``_report_issue()`` which returns tuple of (object, str)
+  - In case new issue was not created automatically and the method falls
+    back to manual creation the return value will be (None, str)
+  - ``report_issue_from_testexecution()`` will call ``_report_issue()``
+    internally and handle the change in return type
+
+  .. note::
+
+    - This change is backwards compatible!
+    - For customized issue tracker integration you will have to apply
+      the same changes to your customized code if you wish new functionality,
+      like post-processing of automatically created issues to work.
+
+- Add tests for backup & restore commands. Closes
+  `Issue #2695 `_
+- Update versions of several CI tools
+- Updates around new version of pylint
+- Use codecov-action to upload coverage results
+- Remove setuptools and other workarounds in tests
+- Don't special case dependencies which already provide wheel packages
+- Workaround an issue with ``setuptools_git_archive`` introduced by jira==3.2.0
+- Workaround the fact that ``django-ranged-response`` doesn't provide wheels
+- Report test results via kiwitcms-django-plugin. Closes
+  `Issue #1757 `_

+
+Attention testers! On behalf of
+[*Testing and Automation devroom*](https://fosdem-testingautomation.github.io/)
+we'd like to announce that call for participation is now open.
+
+**Important:** devroom will take place 09:00 to 12:50, Sunday, February 5th 2023 at
+[ULB Solbosch Campus, Brussels, Belgium](https://fosdem.org/2023/practical/transportation/)!
+Presentations will be streamed online but all accepted speakers are required to deliver
+their talks in person! The devroom will not host pre-recorded videos in 2023!
+
+Here are some ideas for topics that are a good fit for this devroom:
+
+Testing in the real, open source world
+
+- War stories/strategies for testing large scale or complex projects
+- Demystify resource e.g. systems/device/cloud provisioning in a CI loop
+- Tools that extend the ability to test low-level code, e.g. bootloaders, init
+systems, etc.
+- Projects that are introducing new/interesting ways of testing "systems"
+- Address the automated testing frameworks fragmentation
+- Lessons learned from testing
+
+Cool Tools (good candidates for lightning talks)
+
+- How your open source tool made developing quality software better
+- What tools do you use to setup your CI/CD
+- Combining projects/plugins/tools to build amazing things "Not enough people in
+the open source community know how to use $X, but here's a tutorial on how to
+use $X to make your project better."
+
+
+In the past the devroom has seen both newbies/students and experienced professionals and
+past speakers as part of the audience and talks covering from beginner/practical
+to advanced/abstract topics. If you have doubts then submit your proposal and
+leave a comment for the devroom managers and we'll get back to you.
+
+Checkout
+ for more information!
+
+
+Happy Testing!

+growing testing infrastructure for Linux, testing of new networking protocols, observability-driven
+development, the testing history behind the GNOME desktop environment, property-based testing
+and mutation testing.
+
+**Important:** devroom will take place 09:00 to 12:50, Sunday, February 5th 2023 at
+[ULB Solbosch Campus, Brussels, Belgium](https://fosdem.org/2023/practical/transportation/).
+
+If you are around don't forget to check-out our friends from the
+[Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment devroom](https://fosdem.org/2023/schedule/track/continuous_integration_and_continuous_deployment/)
+on Saturday, February 4th 2023!
