= ARM QA =  
= Introduction =
There are currently no tests performed on software compiled for ARM, this page outlines the existing Fedora testing system - AutoQA, and will discuss plans for ARM integration.


= AutoQA =
== Release Criteria ==
AutoQA is the automated test system used in Fedora. <b>Watchers</b> (scheduled through cron ) look for <b>Events</b> ( eg - new package built in Koji, new repo has finished, creation of new installable images, updates in bodhi ). Once an <b>event</b> occurs it triggers automated tests.


== Current Events monitored ==
=Fedora 19=
*git-post-receive - tests run after action performed in git.
=Fedora 18=
*post-bodhi-update - update in Bodhi requests to be moved in 'testing' or 'stable'.
=Fedora 17=
*post-bodhi-update-batch
*post-koji-build - new package built in Koji.
*post-koji-build-batch
*post-repo-update - change in repository package contents or metadata.
*post-tree-compose - new tree compose ( installation/boot images, package repository and metadata )


== Current Tests ==
== Release Validation ==
*conflicts - checks for package conflicts. Runs potential_conflict from yum-utils. ( triggered by - post-repo-update )
*depcheck - checks to see if package would cause broken dependencies if pushed to live repositories. ( triggered by - post-bodhi-update event )
*rats_install - installation of guest machine(virt-install) using latest compose. ( triggered by - post-tree-compose)
*rats_sanity - Repository sanity check - tests check repodata, comps.xml validity, core package dependency closure and existence. ( triggered by - post-repo-update )
*repoclosure - ensures packages in a repository have all dependencies satisfied. ( triggered by - post-repo-update )
*rpmguard - compares difference between new and previous package versions, logging important changes only. ( triggered by - post-koji-build)
*rpmlint - checks for common package issues ( triggered by - post-koji-build )
*upgradepath - checks for package version problems in repositories. ( triggered by - post-bodhi-update-batch )


== ARM specific tests ==
=Fedora 19=
Some tests will need to be written specifically for ARM including:
=Fedora 18=
* Kernel validation
=Fedora 17=
* Image validation
* Individual package tests
* Creation of device specific hardware tests
**test - networking, audio, graphics, usb storage, SD/MMC, serial connection.


= Hardware Access & Repair =
== Kernel Testing ==
Currently not everyone working within Fedora has access to an ARM device so it will be necessary to provide access to developers to test their software. Once their testing is completed, the device needs to be restored to a pristine state. At this time Anaconda is not fully functional, so some possible solutions include:
*SD card switch - allows access to be transferred remotely from card reader to ARM device, allowing for remote machine repair (restoration).
*QEMU
