#REDIRECT [[QA:Create_Install_Test_Result_Page]]
This page will show you the way how to post Test Result of installation against Fedora Release Candidate builds. Please select test cases that best match your test environment and execute them. Sometimes, different hardware will expose different issues. once you get the test results, please post your test result to share with others.
 
= Do you have an account? =
If you are new to participate Fedora test, then the first step is to [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/user/new setup an account].  It's a quick process, so don't hesitate to get started right away.
 
=  Create a Result page =
After you have an account, please login first, then create a wiki page to publish test results.
 
First, we need to give a name to this page. In general, the page name should reflect the build target and the area being tested.  For example, when testing the installer for the Beta builds ''TC'', ''RC1'' and ''RC2'', you might use pages like the following:
* [[Test_Result:{{FedoraVersion|long}}_Beta_TC_Install_Test_Results]]
* [[Test_Result:{{FedoraVersion|long}}_Beta_RC1_Install_Test_Results]]
* [[Test_Result:{{FedoraVersion|long}}_Beta_RC2_Install_Test_Results]]
For other examples to name of Result page, please refer to :[[:Category:{{FedoraVersion|long|current}}_Test_Results|{{FedoraVersion|long|current}}_Test_Results]] ,
 
Create the Result page in web browser with page name by inputting URL like this: [[File:Posting_test_result_create_page.png|600px]]
 
The page prompts you to edit this page,click "edit this page" [[File:Posting_test_result_prompt_to_edit.png|600px]]
 
Now we need to copy the template to this page, open a template at:
[[QA:{{FedoraVersion|long|next}}_Install_Results_Template|{{FedoraVersion|long|next}}_Install_Results_Template]]
click edit, select and copy all content to the page you just created. Please don’t forget to save page.
 
= Posting Test Results =
Ok, you are ready to post a Test Result. Go to ''Test Areas'', and select ''edit'' to input your test result.  For convenience, a wiki template ([[Template:result]]) is available to help with keeping results posted in a consistent format.  For additional guidance, refer to [[QA:{{FedoraVersion|long|next}}_Install_Results_Template#Key]]
 
If a defect occurs, add a link to the reported bug using the syntax: <code><nowiki><ref>[[rhbug:12345]] - failure to detect foo</ref></nowiki></code>
 
The a sample using previous Test Results, please refer to [[:Category:{{FedoraVersion|long|current}}_Test_Results|{{FedoraVersion|long|current}}_Test_Results]]
