Suggested pre-release application (usability, functional) tests for DSpace 6

The below cover most of the fixes and improvements in DSpace 6.3. If we can get volunteers pooled / assigned so that a couple of people are thoroughly testing each of the below functional areas, that'll help confidence in release stability and in catching any last minute problems:

  •  Discovery (Solr) searches, including browsing, pagination, filters, special characters and very long requests - Kim Shepherd
  •  General test of OAI-PMH (both ways)
  •  General test of REST API (aka Legacy REST) and REST Reports - Terrence W Brady
  •  Flyway upgrades, fresh installs, database migrations
  •  ORCID authority control - Kim Shepherd
  •  Subscriptions (with the sub-daily script)
  •  Statistics GeoIP (location) lookups and display - Kim Shepherd
  •  CSV metadata exporting
  •  General performance (and particularly: XMLUI + items with many bitstreams)
  •  MathJAX rendering - Kim Shepherd
