Dear ADempiere Community Members,

On behalf of the Technical and Functional Teams, I am happy to announce the start of community testing of ADempiere Release 3.8.0. A large number of developers and companies have contributed some fantastic new features to Release 3.8.0. Many thanks to Adaxa, e-Evolution, Metas, and Walkingtree for their contributions as well as all the members of the ADempiere Technical and Functional teams. Of special note, thanks to Victor Perez of e-Evolution, Steve Sackett of Adaxa and Mario Calderon of Westfalia for driving the release development. Suman Ravuri of Walkingtree acted as the release manager. Also a special thanks to Paul Aviles of Nickel Networks for the donated test servers and his effort in setting them up.

Release 3.8.0 is an exciting improvement to ADempiere with the integration of a number of major contributions from key developers including:

  • Integration of the Mobile User Interface
  • Sales Management (CRM) to manage leads and opportunities
  • The full inclusion of Libero Manufacturing and Human Resources
  • Forecast and Cashflow Management
  • A new costing engine
  • Smart browser capabilities

And there is much more. You can read the full list here: http://www.adempiere.com/Release_380LTS and you can see it in action on one of the donated servers (Thanks to Nickel Networks):

We now need your help with the testing. Specifically, we need help with the following:

  • Testing of the new features
  • Development of test cases and new demo data
  • Development of repeatable Sahi tests
  • Updates to the wiki and documentation

To get involved, please see the following links:

If you’d like to learn about Sahi and automated web testing, please see http://www.adempiere.com/ADempiere_Testing_with_Sahi.

More detailed coordination and communication of the tests will be provided through the Source Forge forums over the next few days. Jira (https://adempiere.atlassian.net) will be the bug tracker.

The test effort is now underway and will continue until we are comfortable with the performance of the application and the new features. Through our combined efforts, we can ensure a high-quality product is released for use by companies around the world. We really do need your initiative and help to identify problems and solve them.

On behalf of the Technical and Functional teams, thanks in advance for your contribution and support for this release.
