 Sorry this has taken me so long to respond

 > Thank you for explaining how to test @afragen.
 >
 > During the test team triage on June 16th, we came through others tests
 scenarios that might be worth being explored:
 >
 > - On an existing installation, updating WordPress Core (with the patch
 applied) should leave Hello Dolly as a single file
 > - On fresh WordPress installation (with the patch applied), Hello Dolly
 should be in the hello-doly folder
 >
 > These are the scenarios we are sure about based on the explanations on
 the ticket.
 >
 > Now, those that still need to be clarified:
 > - What happen when updating the Hello Dolly that's a single file? Should
 it be left in a single file or moved to the directory?

 An update to a single file Hello Dolly is currently replaced with a
 version in a containing folder.

 > - If it is already activated on an existing install, what happens when
 it's moved? Does it stay activated? Can it cause fatal error then?

 Currently an update from a single file Hello Dolly to a containing folder
 version will update the plugin and deactivate it. No fatal occurs.
