Toolbox End-User Support Team (T.E.S.T.)

Purpose

The Toolbox End-User Support Team (T.E.S.T) is a tri-campus forum for providers of campus / division- level support of Quercus tools. T.E.S.T liaises with ACT and provides updates to each member’s individual constituencies

Objectives

• Build community across the tri-campus Quercus support teams
• Identify / promote best practices in the use of Quercus tools to support learning / teaching
• Discuss key Quercus related operational support issues and questions
• Discuss information about upcoming updates, planned downtimes, and planned changes in functionality or the operation of tools, or services under consideration
• Convey relevant information back to each member’s divisional constituencies

Meetings

T.E.S.T. will normally convene weekly using video or teleconference (to be determined by team).

Meetings will follow a regular agenda of items for discussion including:

1.  System Status (unplanned outages, service interruptions that have occurred, planned updates)
2. Issues 1 (e.g., any issues or problems that have arisen during the week that may need to be discussed)
3. Changes/Planning/Updates (i.e., Planned, Emergency, Major Changes (Version Upgrades, Database changes)
4. Training/Documentation/Communications
5. Other Items / Questions
6. Building blocks, new LTI integrations, new projects that impact Quercus – information sharing and updates 2

1 This is not a forum for discussion of specific tickets rather the larger issue that may be behind tickets

2 Discussion of Academic Toolbox Projects at this forum does not replace A.C.T.’s communications to the broader community
