Proposal: Create Test (or Test Team) in WordPress GitHub Teams

[huzaifaalmesbah]

Similar to existing teams like AI, Gutenberg, and Performance, propose creating a dedicated Test (or Test Team) in the WordPress GitHub organization to improve collaboration and access management.

GitHub Teams: https://github.com/orgs/WordPress/teams

Problem

Testing contributors are currently added individually as collaborators, which is time-consuming and hard to manage across repositories.

Proposal

Create a Test (or Test Team) to manage contributors and repository access in one place.

Benefits

• Centralized repository access
• No need to manage users individually
• Easy communication via like @test-team mentions
• Contributors can request to join
• Ability to manage dedicated repositories for testing tools or plugins

Scope

• Create Test (or Test Team)
• Add maintainers
• Grant access to relevant repositories
• Update documentation

Outcome

Simpler access management, faster onboarding, improved collaboration, and easier management of testing tools and plugins.

I am in favor of this proposal. Having a dedicated Test Team can make contribution and collaboration more manageable. I would be happy to contribute to testing.
