Comment (by hellofromTonya):

 Proposal:

 In addition to `needs-testing-info`, I propose adding `has-testing-info`
 keyword.

 Why?

 `needs-testing` keyword by itself does not indicate the ticket's patch is
 ready for testing. Rather, it's a flag to know that the ticket will
 require testing when it's ready.

 Adding `needs-testing-info` keyword flags more information is needed to
 know how to reproduce and do the testing as well as what the acceptable
 state/criteria are (ie expected behavior and acceptance criteria). This
 keyword is applied manually. The absence of this keyword does not indicate
 the ticket is in a testable state.

 Adding `has-testing-info` is a positive indicator. The combination of
 `needs-testing` + `has-testing-info` creates a ready for testing workflow.
 Now the ticket can be scheduled in a testing scrub and/or a call for
 testers.
