[R-pkg-devel] Development Testers?
Thanks Boris, My main concern I suppose is if this mailing list is appropriate to occasionally solicit additional testers. Just curious what people (i.e. Admins) would think about using the list for such a purpose. Regards, Charles

Of course I can speak only for myself, but I'd help out if asked and I think in general you'll find people here to be a pretty helpful bunch. Cheers, Boris On Feb 5, 2016, at 8:30 AM, Charles Determan <cdetermanjr at gmail.com <javascript:;>> wrote:
I'm not sure if this question is appropriate for the R mailing lists but I'm not sure where else to ask. I am wondering if there is any means by which package authors can solicit testers for a package. I believe this is often referred to as 'crowd sourced testing'. I am aware of continuous integration platforms and unit testing (e.g. testthat) but that only gets me so far. In my particular instance I am developing packages for GPU computing (maybe this request would be best
on
the HPC mailing list?). As such, I can't possibly have access to every type of GPU. I would like to find a means of 'recruiting' users who may have different pieces of hardware to test my package. Of course this
won't
be exhaustive but any additional testing that others could provide would
make the package all the more stable.

Charles
