Hey,
I am chagolchana, I have been using Fedora linux for last 2 months. I want to
contribute back to the project starting with QA. It will be good if someone
can help me get started. I am good with RTFM as well :)
Regards

Hey,
First of all, Welcome and thanks for showing your interest in Fedora QA. It will be
awesome if you can start off by sending an group request for 'qa'.
You can start off by testing updates in [
http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/] for Fedora 26
and Fedora 27. 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 viz "pending" &
"testing". You can read much about update testing here [1]. You can also, use
fedora-easy-karma 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 (Fedora 27 Branched 20171020.n.0 ), you can run test cases which are
mentioned [2] and submit your results in the test matrix.
Note that each of the test cases[3] will have "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:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Server_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Cloud_Test
For Automation, you can start looking at Taskotron
[
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Taskotron]
and Open
QA[https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenQA].

We are currently doing our best to test F27 Modular Server, it will be great if you start
off
with release validation.
You can see all results, find testing instructions and image download
locations, and enter results on the Summary page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_Modular_27_Branched_20...
The individual test result pages are:

P.S. There is a test day coming on 2017-11-30 , it's Kernel 4.14
