If this page is more than a month old when you arrive here, please check the current schedule and see if a similar but more recent Test Day is planned or has already happened.

How to test?
Prepare Your System
Live image
Please check the SHA256SUM is correct before booting!
You may download a non-destructive pre-Fedora 17 live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.
| Architecture | SHA256SUM |
|---|---|
| x86_64 | 2493f7fc0f8a173c1ad6e45eadf4fcae818b81dd552b7e279ba0b3617db4dca1

If you are using the live image, please run this commands in terminal: su -c 'yum update' . Please logout and login again before you start testing.
Using the live image is the easiest way to participate in testing for most people, but alternatively you can:
Update your machine to Fedora 17
If you are already running or want to try the pre-release of Fedora 17, install Fedora 17 Alpha and then update to the latest packages.
Test Cases
Since GDM currently has no language or session choosers, you need login to the system and select system->system settings, then choose the language either in User Accounts or Region and Language.
- QA:Testcase Arabic Language Install
- QA:Testcase Asian Language Install
- QA:Testcase Cyrillic Language Install
- QA:Testcase Non-English European Language Install
- QA:Testcase i18n default fonts
- QA:Testcase_firstboot

Test Results
If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component anaconda. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from the first line as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the wiki if you have one, and the second should be the test case you followed. Use the result template to enter your results in the third column, as shown in the example result line.
| User | Test Description | Result | References |

| Sample User | <AREA> Language Install - <LANG> <AREA> Firstboot - <LANG> |
