Quality Assurance

This section of this wiki is about helping to increase the quality of different versions of VideoLAN's products, and mainly VLC media player.

Why this page ?

Main idea

There is not much yet on this page, but the idea is to develop test protocols, regroup test files, and at the end improve the whole quality of VLC, to avoid regressions and check roadmaps.

Who is concerned

The community of VideoLAN's numerous users and developers can enforce the project by doing systematic tests and report bugs and regressions. Some projects rely on a lot of external code that evolves a lot. Being numerous can help to make it better.

Bugs

The bugs should be tracked down and killed using trac

Why should you get involved ?

The more we are, the more bugs are spotted, the best VLC is ! Easy, ain't it ?

So if you help, everyone will be a winner.

How can you get involved ?

Use this talk page or contact; for a start User_talk:J-b (this will change). Then, just run the tests and modify this wiki's pages.

Bug reporting

Use trac to do these.
