What’s involved in Moodle QA testing?
Moodle QA testing involves testing the new features coming in the next Moodle version and ensure that it is working without any problems in different environments. It is mainly carried out to test Moodle’s functionality from a user point of view.
Real users test out the new functionality on different pages of Moodle. It is not mandatory that you are a developer to test it out. It can be done from any Moodle user who can check if the new feature is working without breaking any other thing.
Moodle 4.0 is the next major version of Moodle which is scheduled to be released on 19th April 2022. It includes many exciting new features which you can check here.
