Can't make the date?
If you come to this page before or after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test, file any bugs you find at Bugzilla, and add your results to the results section. If this page is more than a month old when you arrive here, please check the current schedule and see if a similar but more recent Test Day is planned or has already happened.

How to write Profile in test event page?
Please follow the nomenclature of adding profile information for your testing while submitting test result

1) which variant? WS (Workstation) or SB (Silverblue) or Kinoite ?

2) bare metal or VM?

3) which language used?

4) which arch used?

e.g. a complete user profile should be "Silverblue, KVM, ja_JP, x86_64"

What to test?

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Internationalization a.k.a. i18n around Desktops including their applications. this aims to ensure if i18n support works enough on them.

Who's available

How to test?

Update your machine

If you test with an installed system, make sure you have all the current updates installed, using the update manager.

Live image

Instead of testing on an installed system, you may download a Fedora 35 nightly Workstation live image or Fedora 35 Silverblue image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD. The latest live image links can be found here: please make sure to get a Fedora 35 nightly, not Rawhide.

Run the tests

Visit the 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.

Reporting bugs

Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions.

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla for the appropriate component. 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

Please follow the nomenclature of adding profile information for your testing while submitting test result

1) which variant? WS (Workstation) or SB (Silverblue) or Kinoite ?

2) bare metal or VM?

3) which language used?

4) which arch used?

e.g. a complete user profile should be "Silverblue, KVM, ja_JP, x86_64"

  1. Seems to work. All inscript2 input methods can be succesfully opened. Two of them have no icons (mni-inscript2-mtei and sat-inscript2-olck) For the Mtei and Olck scipt, no fonts are installed on Fedora 35 by default. I cannot say whether the layouts of these inscript2 input methods are correct.
  2. - none of the ibus engine packages have scripts with write-cache, OK - 'include "%H/foo.compose"', middle dot is shown for Multi_key, OK - Ctrl-period shortcut for emoji works - env GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus gtk4-demo: Backspace, Enter keys works, OK, **BUT**: when typing “a ” in ibus-typing booster and the space is forwarded with forward_key_event(), the result is “an”, when the space is passed with “return False”, the result is “ a”. Both is wrong!
