Regressions in 27.x
This page is to coordinate fixing regression bugs to help with the release of 27.0
Semi-related: How to Have Fewer Bugs in Tiki (If we systematically avoid regressions, we solve a big part of the problem).
Priorities
- Regressions from 26x to 27x
Non-priorities
We can do this after 27.0
- General bugs
- Bugs on new features
- Regressions from other versions (25x, 24x, 23x, 22x, 21x, 20x, 19x, etc.) to 27x. Why?
- We must focus
- Our testing infrastructure is designed for 26x to 27x, and it adds work to set up other versions (like 24x to 27x)
- Regressions from 24x to 25x should have been solved as part of the 25x release process. If you didn't handle it there, it could mean that it wasn't important enough.
How to report regressions
- They should appear on the current page, either as wiki text (make sure to indicate your name so dev can coordinate with you), or Add a wish with the "Regression from 26.x to 27.x" category
- The ideal case is to contrast behavior between a 26x *.tiki.org site and Pre-dogfood servers for Tiki 27 release process
- If you can't contrast on *.tiki.org
- Add a show instance to a wish
- If you can't demonstrate on a show instance (ex.: it only happens on your infra, so perhaps a bug for a different OS or dependencies): we can look at this if you supply out developer with SSH access to a system where it works with Tiki26 and SSH access to a system where it doesn't work with Tiki27.
- If you are not sure it's a bug, and want to discuss first, you can ask on https://gitter.im/tiki-org/community
- But don't abuse this. And it remains your responsibility to add the regression in a way where it appears on the current page.

EvoluData
EvoluData will assign its team of junior developers to attempt to address all responsibly reported regressions from 26x to 27x. The goal is that no Tiki site admin is blocked from upgrading from 26x to 27x because of a regression. This applies to all non-deprecated and non-experimental features.
