| Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on testing the rewritten and updated LiveUSB Creator tool, now known as [[Changes/LUCasPrimaryDownloadable|'''Fedora Media Writer''']], for different operating systems and architectures. The new tool is intended to be provided as the primary download option for Fedora 24 Workstation, with the aim of lowering the barrier for potential users to try and install Fedora. | | Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on testing '''Fedora Media Writer ''' for different Operating Systems and architectures. |
| | |
| | ===Benefits to Fedora=== |
| | It will provide an easy-to-use tool for all major platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X) which will be offered to users as the primary download option. That should generally lower the barrier for potential users to try and install Fedora. |

|
| |
|
| === Install the tool === | | === For Fedora 22/23 === |
| | * Get the package from [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=747138 here] |
| | * Install the package |
| | * Download your favorite version of Fedora |
| | * Boot your system with the live USB |
| | * Verify the installation |
| | * Full step by step [http://sumantrom.blogspot.in/2016/04/testing-with-luc-poc-fedora-22-x8664.html doc] |
| | |
| | |
| | === '''Update your machine''' === |
|
| |
|
| * Fedora : {{command|1=sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --best install liveusb-creator}}
| | If you're running Fedora 22, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. If you want to try Rawhide, see the instructions on the [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or: |
| * Windows: Download [https://mbriza.fedorapeople.org/liveusb-creator.zip liveusb-creator.zip], extract it, and run the executable
| |
|
| |
|
| === Run the tests === | | === '''Live image''' === |
|
| |
|
| Visit the [http://testdays.fedorainfracloud.org/events/6 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.
| | 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 can be found [http://getfedora.org/ here]. |
|
| |
|
| === Exploratory testing === | | == Test Cases == |
|
| |
|
| If you run out of test cases, congratulations! But that's not the end! You can still help out by playing around with the tool in whatever ways you can think of: try out all the things you can find, and try writing different Fedora images with it. If you have systems with different Windows versions, try running the tool on all of them. Get creative! Any problems you find please file a bug, or report to the IRC channel.
| | Below is the list of few test cases which participants can execute |
|
| |
|
| == Reporting bugs == | | ===Fedora=== |
|
| |
|
| Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions. Here's an example, from a Palimpsest test day:
| | * Download a live image (if not installed) from [http://www.getfedora.org here] |
| | * Get the package from [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=747138 here] |
| | |
| | dnf install liveusb-creator-3.91.0-1.fc22.noarch.rpm |
|
| |
|
| If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to [https://bugzilla.redhat.com Bugzilla] usually for the component [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&version=24&component=liveusb-creator liveusb-creator]. Please also make the bug 'block' the [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1310542 tracker bug for issues with the tool], by putting '1310542' in the '''Blocks:''' field. 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.
| | * Download your favorite version of Fedora |
| | * Boot your system with the live USB |
| | * Verify the installation |
| | * Manual test cases can be found here[https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Fedora_Media_Writer doc] |
| | |
| | ===Windows=== |
| | |
| | |
| | * Download the tool from [https://mbriza.fedorapeople.org/liveusb-creator.zip here] |
