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?

5) if you upgraded from the previous release, please specify "upgrade"

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

How to test?[edit]

Update your machine[edit]

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

Live image[edit]

Instead of testing on an installed system, you may download a Fedora 40 nightly Workstation live image or Fedora 40 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 40 nightly, not Rawhide.

Run the tests[edit]

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[edit]

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[edit]

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?

  2. Can use m17n keyboard layouts
  3. AltGr working fine and by default enabled. Can type all 4 characters for single key wherever its available for typing. Rupee sign working fine.

  1. Running fontquery-diff in toolbox, needs podman package to be installed. After installing podman, it failed to run with error "No such file or directory: 'fontquery-container'"
  2. Just for stats purpose noting here that installing default-fonts package in toolbox, installs 124 packages.
  3. rendering is correct TextEditor, LibreOffice apps.
  4. Tested by installing libreoffice flatpak. Also updated testcase to use TextEditor instead of gedit.
  5. Updated "Change Language" testcase for new Gnome 46 change
  6. Tested Firefox rendering which looks correct. Emoji also appearing fine from http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/emoji-sequences.html. Page printing to pdf, rendering is also correct.

  1. RHBZ #2267629 liberation-mono-fonts breaks default font for Hebrew
  2. Not too much difference but plasma-desktop requires google-noto-{sans,serif,sans-mono}-fonts. this makes different results for some languages. though they still use "Noto Sans", "Noto Serif", and "Noto Sans Mono".
  3. To get the testcase work, need to install fontquery-builder for a workaround of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2267616
