== What to test? ==


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.

{{admon/warning|Data loss|Any data on the USB stick used for this test is likely to be destroyed. Please do not use a stick whose contents you need to keep.}}
Prerequisite needs for the test event.


* USB flash drive (min. 4GiB)
* Usb Flash Drive ( Anything above 4 GB )
* Root access on the system used to write the drive (or admin access in Windows)
* Root permission of the system.
* The latest version of the tool (see next section)
* Fedora 22/23/24 Aplha
* An updated [http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease Fedora 24 pre-release], [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] (tips on installing Rawhide below), or a [http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ nightly live image]


== How to test? ==
== How to test? ==


=== Install the tool ===
=== For Fedora 22/23/24 ===
* 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]


* Fedora : {{command|1=sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --best install liveusb-creator}}
=== '''Update your machine''' ===
* Windows: Download [https://mbriza.fedorapeople.org/liveusb-creator.zip liveusb-creator.zip], extract it, and run the executable


=== Run the tests ===
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:


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.
=== '''Live image''' ===


=== Exploratory testing ===
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://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ here].


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.
== Test Cases ==


== Reporting bugs ==
Provide a list of test areas or test cases that you'd like contributors to execute.  For other examples, see [[:Category:Test_Cases]].
 
Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions. Here's an example, from a Palimpsest test day:
 
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.


== Test Results ==
== Test Results ==


=== Fedora 24 changes ===
Construct a table or list to allow testers to post results.  Each column should be a test case or configuration, and each row should consist of test results. Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions. Here's an example, from a Palimpsest test day:
