About quality ensurance.
Photonizer is tested thoroughly to ensure the greatest quality possible. Tests
are performed on small and huge albums activating
the functionality of Photonizer.
Main goals of this test is keeping Photonizer:
- free from crashes and memory leaks;
- free from problems that block the proper use of it;
- low on memory usage;
- easy and fast.
The stress testing scenarios focus on album management, thumbnail management,
html creation and slide shows. Tools like MemProof are used for carrying out
these tests.
Although most problems are found before updates of Photonizer are published,
there can always be a problem. That is why I ask people
to report problems that they might encouter. Problems
with high priority are solved within a few days and updates will be published on this site.
Wishlist?
Many users share their thoughts with me about how to make Photonizer more useful. Their and of course
your ideas too, are most important. That is why I maintain a wishlist with new feautures.
