Hi Scott, and welcome! I'll let someone who is more hands-on in QA answer
the "what's most urgent" part, but given your background and current work,
maybe helping out with QA for either Fedora Cloud or Fedora Server -- we
have some initial test plans but there's a lot more to do. (Both in writing
plans and "turning the crank" of actually doing the testing.)
There's also work on our new automated QA framework, Taskotron. That has
plenty of room for feature development, and then also actually making
and deploying automated tests.
PS: if you haven't seen <
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join>, that's
got
some good QA-newbie starting points too.
A very belated 'hi' (guess who just found a bunch of old mail lying
around) from me too! Indeed help with Cloud and/or Server work would be
most welcome. One large project at present is updating the Fedora
testing processes for the "Fedora.next" changes - we wrote new release
criteria and validation tests for Alpha, but we have not yet completed
the same work for Beta and Final. I really need to kick off that
process, in fact, so thanks for the reminder - look out for some emails
to try and start that process going to this list and/or server@,
workstation@ and cloud@ soon.
In the mean time, we are still waiting for the first official F21 Alpha
TC to start the formal release validation process, but new images are
generated nightly and we have been doing some testing of the nightly
images, tracked in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_21_Nightly_2014_08_Ins... and
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_21_Nightly_2014_08_Base . It'd be
good to have some baseline testing of the Server and Cloud nightly images - Stephen
Gallagher has been working on Server testing, but I'm sure he'd welcome some
help.
Welcome, again, and thanks for joining!
