HOWTO's

The following sections are intended to provide high-level instructions for common tasks encountered by a Fedora XO tester.

Find NEW Fedora XO bugs

FIXME - provide tinyurl link to NEW Fedora XO Bugs

  1. Search for all bugzilla bugs with the following criteria:
    • status=NEW
    • product=Fedora
    • version=rawhide
    • whiteboard=XO

Triage NEW Fedora XO Bugs

To help with triaging ...

  1. Start with the list of NEW Fedora XO bugs at http://tinyurl.com/52wclh

For each bug, ask yourself the following questions:

  1. Is the bug specific to the XO hardware or environment?
  2. Was the following information provided?
    • Build tested (rawhide-YYYYMMDD or package versions)
    • Clear steps to reproduce the problem

If the above requirements have been met, please:

  1. Mark the bug as blocking 461806 (FedoraOnXO)
  2. Change to bug state to ASSIGNED

For further reading, the bug triage process is described in more detail at BugZappers.

Test a MODIFIED Fedora XO Bug

FIXME - provide tinyurl link to MODIFIED Fedora XO Bugs

Ask the following questions:

  1. Are you able to confirm that the steps to reproduce no longer trigger the failure?
  2. Have any new bugs been introduced as a result of the fix?
  3. Are any release notes required?

When comfortable with the fix:

  1. Add a comment indicating which build or software packages were tested
  2. Change the bug state to CLOSED with a resolution of RAWHIDE

If the reported issue has not been addressed:

  1. Add a comment indicating which build or software packages were tested that still exhibit the failure
  2. Change the state to ASSIGNED
