Our mission is to test and review language support in Fedora and act as a bridge between translation team, i18n team and users to aid in testing languages in Fedora.


== What do we do ==
*  Test the new fedora releases for our respective languages using different test cases we have prepared.
*  File the bugs and provide reference for other translators/testers.
*  Add new test cases based on new bugs filed and new packages.
*  Prepare the ISO for testing in consultation with the release-engineering team.
*  Coordinate and conduct both i18n (with the help of Fedora i18n team) and 110n test days.
*  Based on the ISO selected for testing, review the test cases.
*  Keep informed the l10n team about new issues, helping them to improve the testing.
*  Submit the report on test days and collect feedback from testers.
== Why FLTG? ==
*  To improve the quality of Fedora in our native languages.
*  To develop more test cases for easy and planned testing.
*  To help the translators/testers find the common bugs.
*  To have a collective testing platform where all translators can be together and test to improve their product with less bugs and errors.
*  A point of contact for all testers to get more information on testing events, test cases and common bugs.

Objective

Fedora Language Testing Group [FLTG] is a SIG group of Fedora contributors taking care of language testing in Fedora.

Our mission is to test and review language support in Fedora and act as a bridge between translation team, i18n team and users to aid in testing languages in Fedora.

What do we do

  • Test the new fedora releases for our respective languages using different test cases we have prepared.
  • File the bugs and provide reference for other translators/testers.
  • Add new test cases based on new bugs filed and new packages.
  • Prepare the ISO for testing in consultation with the release-engineering team.
  • Coordinate and conduct both i18n (with the help of Fedora i18n team) and 110n test days.
  • Based on the ISO selected for testing, review the test cases.
  • Keep informed the l10n team about new issues, helping them to improve the testing.
  • Submit the report on test days and collect feedback from testers.

Why FLTG?

  • To improve the quality of Fedora in our native languages.
  • To develop more test cases for easy and planned testing.
  • To help the translators/testers find the common bugs.
  • To have a collective testing platform where all translators can be together and test to improve their product with less bugs and errors.
  • A point of contact for all testers to get more information on testing events, test cases and common bugs.
