I've had to find these instructions time and time again for requesting testing from people, so I figured why not make it part of our documentation. Maybe it will help get more users involved with testing.

Open to suggestions on wording, grammar, missing info, etc.

Do we want to suggest specific things to look at when testing? E.g., checking manpages, help prompts, completion, runits?

I don't think that would be necessary, we are more interested in users of the software actually testing if their setup works, not random people going trough a superficial checklist, which the contributor would probably already have done.
