Hello everyone,
I gave a shot at running a verification test. I was looking at
Fedora_26_Branched_20170513.n.0 installation

That's correct. There's a new page since yesterday:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
Once we start getting Beta RCs (release candidates), which will be
hopefully soon, that link will point to those.
Should I be testing the milestones labeled as Final in the nightly
builds?
All of them are useful. For Beta release, those marked with Alpha and Beta
have to pass. For Final release, Alpha + Beta + Final have to pass.
I hope I did this the right way. Here is what I did.
Went to Fedora_26_Branched_20170513.n.0 installation
<
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_26_Branched_20170513.n...;,
Image sanity, and chose the repoclosure test case. Followed the procedures
and got the results below:
*Added myrepo repo from /media*
*Reading in repository metadata - please wait....*
*Checking Dependencies*
*Repos looked at: 1*
* myrepo*
*Num Packages in Repos: 2836*
*package: python-smbios-2.3.0-4.fc26.x86_64 from myrepo*
* unresolved deps: *
* python-ctypes*
Which shows one unresolved dependency. If I am correct this would qualify
as a automatic blocker for the final release and I should submit a bug
report and update the test results page to show failed?
Yes, please do that. It should be an automatic blocker, you're correct, but
since you're new, it's better if you use
https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug to propose the
blocker, and we'll check whether we can reproduce it and approve it if we
can.
I apologize I am just trying to familiarize myself with the layout
and how
things are done. So this test labeled as final for this particular build
should have this issue resolved before it gets integrated into the main
Fedora 26 build?
It means we can release F26 Alpha/Beta with this problem, but not F26 Final
(the final image that gets then announced to our users).
I am just trying to understand this process. Once I am able to edit
the
appropriate pages and sections I will post my findings on this test and
submit the bug report. If I did this wrong and missed a few steps could
someone please point me in the right direction.
Thank you for your patience and help.
Ryan
Thanks a lot for your help!
