If you come to this page before or after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test, file any bugs you find at Bugzilla, and add your results to the results section. 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.
What to test?
Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Cloud, Atmoic images for Fedora 24.
Who's available
The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
- Development - Kushal (kushal), Developer2 (irc_nick2)
- Quality Assurance - Tester1 (irc_nick3), Tester2 (irc_nick4)
Prerequisite for Test Day
You will require at least a system with libvirt/kvm installed. Having access to any Openstack or other Cloud IAAS system where you can upload an image will be even better.
Download the images from below links
- Cloud Image link
- Atomic Image link
Here's a chunk which is commonly used for most Test Days. Replace XX with whatever Fedora release is pending:
- An updated Fedora 24 nightly Cloud/Atomic image
How to test?
High level details on how a contributor can get involved. This can include (but not limited to):
- Areas to target with exploratory testing
- A list of pre-defined test cases to execute
- How to report back results
Run the tests
If not using the Test Day app, provide a list of test areas or test cases that you'd like contributors to execute. For examples, see Category:Test_Cases. If using the Test Day app, link to it here, with some explanation, e.g.:
Visit the result page and click on the column title links to see the tests that need to be run: most column titles are links to a specific test case. Follow the instructions there, then enter your results by clicking the Enter result button for the test.
Reporting bugs
Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions. Here's an example, from a Palimpsest test day:
If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component udisks, or gnome-disk-utility for bugs in the Palimpsest graphical front end itself. 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.
Test Results
If you use the Test Days app, just explain that users should enter results there and they will be transferred to the page later. For e.g.:
Please enter your results on the result page. The results will be transferred here after the Test Day is finished.
Otherwise, construct a table or list to allow testers to post results. Each column should be a test case or configuration, and each row should consist of test results. Include some text to explain reporting. Here is a common setup:
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. For each test case, use the result template to enter your result, as shown in the example result line.
