This template should be used to display details of testing against a particular game. Use the [[Template:Test Entry]] template to add rows but remember to use the rules listed at that template. You can also use <tt>|type=</tt> to determine the kind of software, such as channel, game, or anything. When <tt>|type=</tt> is specified, template will use the string passed, or when it isn't specified, this template will return the default string ("game"). Please list entries in chronological order; oldest to newest, top to bottom.
This three-part '''testing''' template should be used to display details of testing against a particular game. Use the {{tl|testing/start}} template to add rows but remember to use the rules listed in the "parameters" section below. Please list entries in chronological order; oldest to newest, top to bottom.


==Usage==
To add testing details use entries similar to the code below:
To add testing details use entries similar to the code below:


<pre>{{Testing|type=template}}
<pre>
{{Test Entry|revision=5442|OS=Windows 7 x64|CPU=Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 @ 2.6 GHz|GPU=nVidia GTX 275|result=Intro slow, but in game full speed.|tester=Link to user page}}</pre>
{{testing/start|type=template}}
The sample entry above will show on the game page like this (in this example <tt>|type=</tt> was set as "template"):
{{testing/entry|revision=5442|OS=Windows 7 x64|CPU=Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 @ 2.6 GHz|GPU=nVidia GTX 275|result=Intro slow, but in game full speed.|tester=Link to user page}}

{{testing/end}}
{{Testing|type=template}}
</pre>
{{Test Entry|revision=5442|OS=Windows 7 (x64)|CPU=Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 @ 2.6 GHz|GPU=nVidia GTX 275|result=Intro slow, but in game full speed.|tester=Link to user page}}

{{testing/start|type=template}}

==Parameters==
===Start===
*<tt>|type=</tt> is optional, and can be used to specify the type of software, such as channel, game, or anything. When <tt>|type=</tt> is specified, template will use the string passed, or when it isn't specified, this template will return the default string ("game").
 
===Entry===
<pre>{{testing/entry|revision=|OS=|CPU=|GPU=|result=|tester=}}</pre>
*In <tt>|revision=</tt> you must specify only the revision number, since it's parsed by [[Template:Revision]]. (The same rules of [[Template:Revision]] applies here too).
*In <tt>|OS=</tt> you must specify only basic info, like OS Brand + Version + Processor architecture. (For example, Windows 7 x86 or Mac OSX 10.7 x64 or Ubuntu 10 x86-64, etc).
*In <tt>|CPU=</tt> only basic information is required, like CPU Brand + Series + Model + @ + Frequency in GHz. (For example, Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 @ 2.2GHz)
*Only basic info is required on <tt>|GPU=</tt> too, like GPU Brand + Series + Model, and if the GPU is on-board, + (on-board) (For example, nVidia GeForce 9800GTX, or Intel GMA 945G (on-board). For ATI GPUs, you can also use AMD as GPU Brand if you want).
*In <tt>|results=</tt>. write only the essential! (For example, "Playable 40-60 FPS, intro slow" or "Slow: 25-35 FPS in game due slow CPU (or GPU)". Please doesn't include Dolphin configuration, since we assume that test environment is set as recommended settings described on game page or in [http://www.dolphin-emulator.com/performance.html performance guide]).
*<tt>|tester=</tt> is optional if you aren't a registered user, and the only value that you need to put is a link to your user page. (For example <tt><nowiki>[[User:Anybody|Anybody]]</nowiki></tt>).
