Contributing to WordPress: Making an Impact on the Test Team—With or Without Coding Skills

Patrick Lumumba

WordPress survives on collaboration, and the Test Team plays a very important role in ensuring the CMS is stable, user-friendly, and accessible to everyone.

This talk aims to deconstruct the myth that one has to be a developer to contribute to WordPress. In this session, I will share with the audience how to get involved with the WordPress Team, whether a coder or not.

We’ll explore practical ways to contribute, from testing new features, and patches, to reporting bugs. By the end of this talk, the audience will have the tools and confidence to make a meaningful impact on WordPress—no matter the skill set.
