Introduction

This document describes the tests that will be created and used to verify the functions/components of Fedora 12.

The goals of this plan are to:

Test Strategy

Instead of outlining all possible installation inputs and outputs, this test plan will focus on defining inputs and outputs at different stages in anaconda. This will also allow different tests to be performed independently during a single installation. For example, one may execute a kickstart delivery via HTTP, raid0 partitioning using 3 physical disks, and a minimal package installation on a para-virtualized xen guest all in single installation. Scenarios where the stages are dependent will be indicated as such in the test case.

New features of Fedora 12

As with Fedora 11, Fedora 12 will bring us some new features. The following list outlines the larger changes that affect installation. Test plans for these features will be designed/developed on each feature page.

Additional features outside the scope of testing can be found at:

Schedule/Milestones

Test Priority

This test plan will use a 3 tier classification for test execution priority.

Tier#1 test cases

Tier1 is intended to verify that installation is possible on common hardware using common use cases.

Verification includes:

Tier#2 test cases

Tier2 takes a step further to include more use cases. Tier2 verification consists of:

Tier#3 test cases

Tier3 captures the remaining identified use cases:
