Author best practices

Put yourself in the QCer’s shoes

console
library(ghqc)
ghqc_assign_app()

Preview the checklist in the app and cross off items as if you were the QCer.

Checking these items off in the app doesn’t check them off in the actual rendered GitHub Issue.

Edit each Issue’s checklist template

Adapt checklist templates to fit the context of your QC. These templates are only a guide — your expertise is what makes them effective.

Notify file changes to the QCer with the Status app

console
library(ghqc)
ghqc_status_app()

Close Milestones when completed

When QC for each file in a Milestone is completed, each QC file’s respective Issue should be closed via the “Approve” button in the Status app by their respective QCers.

At this point, the Author can close the Milestone to indicate completed QC with no other QC files to add to the set.
