Create a Guide/Template: Testing GitHub actions in your own repository

[tunglinn]

Overview

We need to create a guide introducing how to test GitHub Actions (specifically via a forked repository) so that adding or fixing GHAs can be tested.

This can be an add-on to #25.

Action Items

• Gather examples of how other projects have done it, adding each example as a link in the resources section. It is really important to annotate as you go in this issue, so that if you have to stop working on the issue, its already up to date with your findings.
  • Once done, remove the "TG: Gather Examples" label and add the "TG: Draft Template" label
• Create a draft template, either in markdown format in this issue or a google doc in the Engineering google drive
  • Once done, remove the "TG: Draft Template" label and add the "TG: Create Guide" label
• Create a guide on how to use the template
  • Once done, remove the "TG: Create Guide" label and add the "TG: Review Guide" label
• Review the guide with product management communities of practice
  • Once done, remove the "TG: Review Guide" label and add the "TG: Leadership Review" label
• Present to Hack for LA leadership team for sign off
  • Once approved, remove the "TG: Leadership Review" label and add the "TG: Place Guide" label
• Possibly create an issue template on .github
  • Include link to template under resources if you add it as a template in .github
