Require Formal BETA Testing
 

Hello all.

I have developed an FTP Client Application that will back up folders automatically to a user-specified domain. Before releasing it, I require formal testing to guarantee its compatibility (only Windows, others are just bonuses), report any bugs, and suggest modifications of behaviour.

This is not a paying job. However, you will get an application that could cost you maybe $20 for free. Thusly, if you have access to an FTP, and need this application, I suggest helping out.

What I will require from you in your BETA testing.

A report...
- Specifying exactly everything you have tried.
- The different combinations of circumstances you have put the application through.
- Run the program through several different extremes, reporting the success of each possibility.
- Try all the options and combinations therein. Test for any conflicts.
- Information on your computer's specs, to associate with your comments on speed and stability.
- Potential improvements for the program.
- Comments on program's general behaviour.
- Report on anything that is specifically unclear or difficult to understand in the program. Or difficult to manage.
- Test for more chaotic situations like internet disconnection, FTP server downtime, and restricted access. Report the needed improvements for each of these.
- The software the FTP uses.
- A general comment on the success of the program.

The whole report should be estimated at, at least 500 words. More would be highly appreciated.

I will have to have seen you posting on this forum and approve of your potential to complete said job before sending you the program. This program is copyright of PcFixz.com, so I am only distributing this to trusted members.

If anything is unclear, please ask. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
- Aaron V

Hey Sane,

At the moment I have no need for FTP apps (and don't have an FTP servers), but I must say it looks like you did a good job. Looks very professional. Curious to know, what language did you write it in?

Python

Sounds neat, if i had an ftp server i would gladly test it for you. Unfortunately, i do not.

ftp login's can be arranged for the beta test.

Ill test for you... email me msk420@gmail.com

Do you mind if I can see some credentials or proof that you are motivated/capable of doing an in-depth report?

If i have access to pcfixz ftp server, (sounds like he offered up access) i would be happy to test it for you. Just so you know my current job is a Quality Assurance Analyst (I.E i do this for a job) lol. If you talk to pcfixz or can offer up access to an ftp ill test it for you.

i have sent sane the ftp details to test with so i will leave it all to him ;)

I will program the BETA release soon. Right now it's just a PreRelease that I was using as a benchmark for Pcfixz. If I can get this done today between all my other work, I'll send it off to the people I feel qualified.
