[APM] Test plan 7.12

[sorenlouv]

The 7.12 test plan consists of:

• Cherry-picked PRs
• 3 road map goals

Road map goals

These should be tested extra carefully. Instead of testing individual PRs one person should test the entirety of the road map feature. The PRs are only listed to help the tester remember what went into the feature.

1. Every item in the "Pay special attention to" section should be taken into account.
2. Find an item and add your @username. When done add Tested prefix

Road map goals

• Correlations
• UI Performance improvements
• APM Server under Elastic Agent

Important PRs

• Open the list of important PRs in the test plan
• Assign yourself to a PR as you start testing it to avoid duplicate work
• After testing apply apm:test-plan-done label. If a problem is found during testing a new issue should be opened and labelled apm:test-plan-regression and moved to "7.12" column.

Pay special attention to

• License issues (bugs affecting users with certain licenses)
• Permissions (bugs affecting users with specific privileges)
• No data states (bugs caused when no APM data was ingested, no ML jobs existed, no alerts existed etc)
• Integration with other teams in general

If you haven't already please read the common theme of bugs
