Internal testing draft plan below:
next step:
- dev+design to align on which server to conduct a test
- slimmed down version of file store on one of the non-production server
- description of test for each feature - with help from CJ + nalae - with more randomness to test
A list of HDX features for periodic test:
- HDX Connect (A. add metadata as data maintainer as well as B. request data as consumer) - include tracking of responded/not responded requests.
- Add data flow (A. with local file + B. remote resource + C. try adding external data viz)
- Edit data flow (A. overwrite old resource with new B. change resource from external URL <> local resource)
- Contact contributor
- new account registration + join + request new organization
- Data Check (A. validate a local file + remote resource on Tools + B. validate a hxl-tagged resource on HDX)
- Quick Charts (A. test making quick charts on Tools + B. After testing 2(add data with hxlated data), turn on

Volunteer testing draft plan below

HDX runs on the open-source CKAN platform, and we are upgrading our version from 2.3 to 2.63 and adding a new feature, requestable datasets. As of today, the new version is ready on the feature server.
We’d like your support in testing this upgraded version on the feature server. The main goal is to confirm that the new version behaves the same way as the old one, and to identify any issues or problems.
...
A full list of testing scenarios is below. Feel free to choose any of them.
**Be sure to test on the feature server, not on the actual HDX site.Please use this template to record any issue you experience.**

If the data uses the HXL standard, then HDX can automatically create customizable graphs and key figures to help you highlight the most important aspects of your dataset. This is called a "HXL Preview." For a HXL Preview to be generated, your dataset needs:
...
Python HDX Library [for Python programmers]
Test the HDX Ckan with the new site, trying as many different API calls and edge cases as you can think of.
...
Map Explorer [desktop full page version]
Same actions as in above.
