What to test?

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on SSSD by default

If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test with your system and provide feedback.

Who's available

The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion...

What's needed to test

How to test?

Update your machine

See the instructions on the Branched page on the various ways in which you can install or update to the Branched release. Be sure you are testing with at least authconfig-6.1.2-1.fc13 and sssd-1.1.0-2.fc13. To install the latest authconfig, type: yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update authconfig sssd

Live image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive Rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD. Live images with the latest authconfig and sssd packages can be found here.

Test

When ready, please follow each of these test cases:

Don't have an LDAP or kerberos server?
If you do not have a local LDAP or kerberos server to test with, you can still participate. An LDAP and kerberos server are provided during the test day. However, if you are visiting this page well after the test day, the following information may no longer apply.
  • Public Certificate URL - http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/sssd/cacert.asc
  • Available user accounts: sssdtest10001 ... sssdtest10100
  • Available groups: sssdgroup20001 ... sssdgroup20100
  • LDAP server information
    • Default user password: sssdtest
    • ldap_uri = ldap://publictest9.fedoraproject.org
    • ldap_search_base = dc=fedoraproject,dc=org
  • Kerberos server information
    • Default user password: sssdkrb5
    • krb5_realm = SSSD.FEDORAPROJECT.ORG
    • krb5_kdcip = publictest9.fedoraproject.org:88
    • krb5_kpasswd = publictest9.fedoraproject.org:749

Report your Results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Trac. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, 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 James Laska 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, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had trouble, enter the word FAIL, with a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the private LDAP test as you do not have access to an LDAP server), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter any short, additional information about your testing environment.
