The Quality Assurance (QA) feature allows to improve the overall translation quality by making sure that translators follow the syntax and key specifications.
In case of a violation, notifications are immediately displayed in the Quality assurance tab of the project page. Click on this tab to list all QA issues which have been found for the current project.
Use the drop-down menus at the top left of the issue list to filter QA issues by language locales or specific QA check types. To get more details and context about each listed QA issue, simply click on its name or select Editor on the right side of the list: the translation editor will be open to display relevant key information.
To ignore one of the listed issues, click on Dismiss on the right side of the list. To ignore all listed issues, click on Dismiss all at the top right of the list.
