[HybridApp] Problem #6: Correctly test the HybridApp using our existing QA team and processes

[AndrewGable]

Problem

The QA team (Applause) currently does not know that the HybridApp exists, but once we solve the problems #1-5 above, they will be able to test all New Expensify changes via the HybridApp. Additionally, they will be able to run all regression tests (for both Old and New experiences) that are run before each deployment to verify that no existing features have regressed. This should give us even more confidence that HybridApp is ready for production.

Solution

This will require very little to no code changes, we will have to set up a meeting with Applause (Isabella and team) to discuss and explain what HybridApp does. Then we will explain to Applause that we will begin testing all PR checklists and regression checklists against the HybridApp.

We will provide documentation on how to download the HybridApp from the OldApp listing, which is very similar to how they test today, just downloading a different application.

Working on it (soon)

[AndrewGable]

Working on it!

[AndrewGable]

Still waiting a little longer for this one.

[AndrewGable]

Should be able to tackle this one shortly after May release!

[AndrewGable]

This is going to be implemented after we finish code implementation, so on hold for now

[AndrewGable]

Still on hold

Still on hold

Met with the Applause team today and previewed HybridApp with the team and @isagoico

Some todo list items for me:

• Create a device list we want to test for HybridApp
• Write a few transition test cases (or share the ones that already exist)

This issue has not been updated in over 15 days. @AndrewGable eroding to Monthly issue.

P.S. Is everyone reading this sure this is really a near-term priority? Be brave: if you disagree, go ahead and close it out. If someone disagrees, they'll reopen it, and if they don't: one less thing to do!

[AndrewGable]

Still waiting until we have a successful first version live before moving Applause over.

[AndrewGable]

I think we are really close to starting this

[AndrewGable]

Almost there!

[AndrewGable]

Closer!

[AndrewGable]

Very close now

[AndrewGable]

We are going to start doing this with Applause on the next release deploy checklist!

[AndrewGable]

@isagoico said this is starting next QA checklist 🎉

[AndrewGable]

I believe this is done, we are regression testing and checklist testing via HybridApp now. There will be some growing pains, but we will handle separate to this issue.
