What are regression tests?
[edit]A feature which formerly worked but has since broken it is said to have "regressed".
Regression tests outline simple steps you can take to confirm a software feature is working correctly.
Before each release of the iOS Wikipedia app we (and volunteers) run a variety of manual regression tests to ensure new and old features are working properly.
You can help us find bugs by repeating testing steps on these regression test pages.
