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, 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.

What to test?[edit]

This Test Day will focus on GNOME 46 Desktop and Core Apps.

Who's available?[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion:

Development - Kalev Lember (kalev), Allan Day (aday)
Quality Assurance - Sumantro Mukherjee (sumantrom), Geoffrey Marr (coremodule), Kamil Paral (kparal), Adam Williamson (adamw)

You can chat with us on Matrix or IRC. See the infobox on top of the page to learn where to join.

Prerequisites for Test Day[edit]

Fedora 40 Workstation nightly ISO image installed on either bare metal or in a virtual machine. (Make sure you have no important data on that system. Things might go wrong -- don't do this on your production machine!)
If you already have Fedora 40 Workstation installed, there's no need to reinstall, but just make sure you have the latest updates installed.

How to test?[edit]

Use Fedora 40 Workstation that includes GNOME 46.beta and see if you can find anything that's crashing or not working correctly. In that case, file a bug!

Visit the results 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.

Please also try to experiment and explore and perform tasks not mentioned in any of the pre-defined test cases.

Reporting bugs[edit]

Perhaps you've found an already-reported bug. Please look at:

Vast majority of bugs are likely going to be upstream code issues and should be reported into the GNOME gitlab bug tracker. General desktop issues are generally reported against gnome-shell, and applications have their own separate projects.

In cases where issues stem from downstream packaging (outdated components, broken dependencies) they should be filed into Red Hat Bugzilla.

We really need bug reports!
Please note that just mentioning your problem into the comments section on the results page is not very helpful. Very often those problems only happen in specific circumstances, or with specific steps taken. We need the logs and screenshots, and we need to be able to ask you followup questions. Please file bug reports, it's much more useful than a short comment. Thank you!

When filing the bug, it's very helpful to include:

exact steps you've performed (and whether you can reproduce it again)
screenshots or videos, if applicable
system journal (log), which you can retrieve by journalctl -b > journal.txt
all output in a terminal, if started from a terminal
your system description

If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask us.

Please make sure to link to the bug when submitting your test result, thanks!

vinceff	Fedora silverblue 40, x86_64, CPU AMD 5800X, GPU 6950XT, Wayland	warn ^[1]	↑ Gnome 46, change french hours in top bar into english hours (example 22:37 -> 10:37 PM)

[1] In Anaconda, for the disk, I selected manual mount points. I asked to format both / and /boot/. Both are formated in EXT4 format. This does not follow fedora policy to use BTRFS.

[2] RHBZ #2264930 RHBZ #2264931 RHBZ #2264923 1- The password is broken because I selected the french layout in GNOME and this was used for password creation in GNOME. But GDM ask my password with the US layout (qwerty) at boot time. Thus the password is broken. 2- The hour format is set to AM /PM (US again), but for french people it should be 24-hour. 3- Anaconda print 2 times %%

[3] Odd thing first time Installed on KVM Initial Setup was successful to Creating User : Wouldn't let me create user. ? I didn't believe it! So I tryed again and I could create a user and I could sign in to "root.... and so Fedora 40 / 46 Passed

[4] Password issue? Defaults to US keyboard at login despite setting to UK keyboard within Gnome. Once logged in UK keyboard works as expected. Noticed as password used contains @ and # symbols. Otherwise install worked great.

[5] New installer is really bad to create LVM volumes and install on them. Install is sooooo long. But install OK

[6] Also the problem with time zone (for Czech Republic) being in 12 hour format.

[7] 12hour instead of 24 hour time for Stockholm, Sweden

[8] I really miss the possibility to set UID and GID for the new user.

[9] ually create and mount EFI(/boot/efi) and EXT4(/) partitions

[10] The new installer was great
