Summary
Updating the PR template to address a common pitfall: forgetting to manually test any fixes that have a direct effect in other repos.
Important
Take this as a suggestion, I'm happy to close
Why are we making this change?
To avoid shipping fixes or changes that will look good in isolation, and will include proper automated tests, etc. but still might fail to fully fulfill any external requirements.
A recent example:
search.onChangefor plain text (searchFormat="text") #9059 was shipped and released as a fix for [EuiInMemoryTable]search.onChangecallback not firing whensearchFormat="text"#9019It appeared unnecessary to do, and the PR (#9059) was properly reviewed, but some extra smoke testing would have saved some time.
