Hi Folks;
My name is Joe Pesco and this is my self introduction.
Hello Joe, and welcome.
You should apply to join the QA group <
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/qa
What is
your FAS username?
You can start off by testing updates in <
http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/> for Fedora 31, Fedora 32, and Fedora
33. Update testing is where a tester tests a package and
gives out a +1 Karma for PASS and -1 Karma for FAIL. You can go to
bodhi.fedoraproject.org where you can sort the packages with Fedora
Releases and tags with "pending" & "testing". You can read much
about
update testing here [1]. You can also use the command fedora-easy-
karma from your terminal for giving out feedbacks.
You can start with Release Validation testing. In Release Validation
all you need to do is to check the nightly/TC/RC against certain
criteria. For example, let's take the latest compose nominated for
testing (Fedora 33 20200811.n.0), you can run the test cases which are
mentioned here [2] and submit your results in the test matrix.
Note that each of the test cases [3] will have an "How to test" section
which will have the steps (to be executed sequentially) and if the
results match with the expected results you can mark it as pass by
editing the wiki page {{result|PASS|<fas_username>}}. Always make sure
to check for "Associated release criterion" which can be found on the
top of test case page, if your test case fails you can mark it fail by
editing the wiki page {{result|FAIL|<fas_username>}} and file a bug at
RHBZ [4] under Fedora.
You can always find the "current" validation pages using these
addresses:
