Some ideas about how to train new QA Engineers...
(see also: Getting Started)
Logistics
- get a computer
- get a login
- email for UCSC and SOE
- key card
- copy .tcshrc and .bashrc from one of us (both are needed to run scripts)
- copy .hg.conf and .hg.conf.beta from someone, so you can run hgsql and scripts that use it.
- check out a copy of the kent source tree
- set up nightly cron to update kent source tree
- build your own sandbox
Tools
- vi (vimtutorial) -- or other editor
- mysql
- CVS (or git, if we git it) tutorial: http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/research/compbio/cvsdoc/cvs-tutorial/cvs_tutorial_toc.html
Browser
- Open Helix tutorials
- ASHG hands on tutorial
Data
- Jorge's data flow PowerPoint presentation
Training person-to-person (in rough chronological order)
- machine layout
- data flow
- using cvs: day to day commands, and cvs reports/pair review process
- trackDb.ra and trackDb table
- make docs
- pushQ
- QAing a "normal" track (using the checklist, perhaps)
- joinerCheck
- static docs
- makefiles
- /usr/local/apache vs. the cvs tree
- hgcentral
