			As time allows, test the items of all the list in these combinations:
			* All supported operating systems/platforms
			* CPU, OpenCL, CUDA/OptiX, and any future GPU engine
			* Path engine, Light engine, BiDir engine
			* Any supported Blender versions

 This page provides a description of various testing procedures that are implemented for the different parts of LuxCoreRender.
 Some of these are based on automated systems (or planned to be implemented as such), while some need to be run manually. This applies specifically to testing BlendLuxCore in conjunction with the Blender User Interface.

			TBD:
			* Create an archive structure for rendered images associated with each release version
			* Add a script that will render all available test scene and save the images with appropriate tag
			* Add a script that compares the latest rendering to the previous version to highlight differences for further manual analysis
