Recovering a comment from Zeljko in a deleted wiki page:

An element whose link value in English is "Talk" will be "Diskussion" in German.

I think this is not a good example. If the way the code finds page element changes with the language, then we should ask for id attribute to be added to the element, and use it instead of element text. --Zeljko.filipin(WMF) (talk) 18:12, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

A better example would be search results page being different in desktop and mobile browsers. Both pages have the list of search results, but it is likely that page elements are different. --Zeljko.filipin(WMF) (talk) 18:14, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Currently there is a lot of overlapping between QA/Browser testing/Running tests and QA/Browser testing/Concepts. This is confusing.

Ideally we would have this setup:

• One page with basic concepts, good for new contributors. imho QA/Browser testing/How to contribute fits that purpose very well already.
• One page for developers and advanced contributors that have gone through QA/Browser testing/How to contribute and want more. imho we should take QA/Browser testing/Running tests, bring here whatever is good from QA/Browser testing/Concepts and convert the Concepts page in a redirect.

What do you think?

I feel my gardening skills might not be enough to merge these two pages since I'm lacking the expertise Chris and Zeljko have, but if nobody else does it... :/
