This document gives you quick overview about necessary steps you must undertake to join the Test Team and be able to do good work. It is enriched with links to other documents with more details in case such text exists. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free ask on #chat-general (accessible for team members only) or #pub-general (open for everybody).
