How to do a review of a PR

  1. First select one PR: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/pulls
  2. In the PR, you should find a link to the original ticket. For example in this PR: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/pull/55 you will find a link to: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/issues/31
  3. In that link you will see which is the page being replicated. In this example this page is being replicated https://make.wordpress.org/test/handbook/get-setup-for-testing/
  4. Now, ideally divide your screen in two sections, in one side, put the original document and the other side, put the new PR file
  5. To access the new PR file, you should go to the PR -> Files Changed. In this example: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/pull/55/files
  6. Then clock on the 3 dots -> View File. In this example it leads to: https://github.com/dhruvang21/test-handbook/blob/d04ec6869e18645a27bed279535b46b4acf7548f/get-setup-for-testing/index.md
  7. Now you have side by side, the new content in MD and the old content in the  make.wordpress.org page.
  8. Check that both versions are identical. If you need to add some corrections, go back to the “Files Changed” section, and click on the lines that need a change to do a review and put a comment. Once you have added all the comments, click on Submit Review -> Request Changes -> Submit Review
  9. Repeat this until the doc is identical to the original
  10. Once everything is perfect, go to Submit Review -> Approve -> Submit Review



How to do a review of an Issue

If you see that everything is perfect and identical, just write a comment saying something like:   All reviewed. Perfect

Some issues doesnt have a PR but need a Review.  Check this list: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3AReview and pick one. For this example I’m picking this: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/issues/31

First one the make page in one side of your screen. In this example this page: https://make.wordpress.org/test/handbook/test-team-profile-badges/

Now in the other side of your screen open the MD file, in this example is this one: https://github.com/WordPress/test-handbook/blob/main/test-team-badge.md

Check that everything is identical.

If you find something that is wrong, you need to open a new PR with the changes. If you don’t know how to do this just add a comment with the things to change
