3.6. TC IOPTEST

12 attendees representing 5 organizations (with 1 observing) tested and developed features in the areas of CalDAV, VPOLL, WebDAV Sync, Calendar Sharing and Timezones. Some attendees also spent time working with the Apple test suite and the Apple performance suite. We spent some time discussing various issues at the technical level, including VPOLL, issues with locating a service when all we have is the CUA, etc.

We also discussed how CalConnect can better organize the sessions to get newer attendees rapidly paired up with each other for testing. We will talk about this more on some of the upcoming TC calls but the approach will probably be to allocate n hour or so at the very start to discuss the testers’ needs and who can help them resolve their outstanding issues.

There has also been some discussion on finding a way to emphasize the value of these (test event discussion) sessions as a forum for developers which involves more than testing clients and servers. The various BOFs have been a step along that path.
