Employees from the hosting industry programmed a PHP test runner and reporter configuration for Hosts to test out WordPress on their systems and servers before official releases.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This has enabled several of the Hosting team members to set up testing for pending WordPress releases on their specific systems. Doing this helps identify potential bugs and conflicts ahead of the official releases, as well as give hosts the opportunity to have a voice in the community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>InMotion Hosting and other hosts set this up, and then the results from each company are posted on Make WordPress with company logos next to their individual tests results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hosting team works on projects passed down from the Make WordPress Core leadership and coordinates with the Core team on hosting-related projects and bug resolution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the Hosting team is also tasked with outreach and communication to hosts about changes and WordPress happenings, and they help facilitate contributor days and other WordPress community events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You do not have to be a team representative in order to contribute.&nbsp;If you would like to contribute to the Make WordPress Hosting team , here\u2019s how to can help:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The team meets in the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.slack.com\/archives\/hosting-community\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">#hosting-community<\/a> Slack channel each week on Wednesday at 0900 UTC and 1800 UTC.
