---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Adam Williamson adamwill@fedoraproject.org Date: Fri, Apr 1, 2022 at 9:30 PM Subject: Fedora 36 validation testing event: let's do full testing of Fedora 36 Branched 20220401.n.0 To: test-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org, < desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org>, kde@lists.fedoraproject.org, < server@lists.fedoraproject.org>, arm@lists.fedoraproject.org, < cloud@lists.fedoraproject.org>
Hi folks! Trying something a bit new here. I've nominated today's Fedora 36 nightly compose for validation testing. We do this regularly in any case, but I'm sending this out to a wider group and asking folks to treat this nightly as it it were a release candidate, and try to complete the *full* set of Final validation tests on it. The idea is to try and make sure we get all the tests done well ahead of the Go/No-Go Meeting, so we can identify any remaining blocker bugs *now*, not have to try and deal with them in a hurry later.
Test coverage information for the current release can be seen at: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/testcase_stats/36 . You can use this to prioritize tests that have not yet been run at all.
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_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_...
The individual test result pages are:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_36_Branched_20220401.n.0_...
The goal is to try and hit every test marked as Basic, Beta or Final (hitting the Optional ones too is great but not required). It'd be particularly good to cover things that often don't get done until late - aarch64 tests, Cloud tests in real clouds, and the full set of Server Active Directory tests, for instance. If you hit a significant failure in a test, please file a bug, and most likely propose it as a release blocker using https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug .
If you have any questions or need any help with testing or reporting results, please contact us on the test@ list or the QA IRC/Matrix channel (#fedora-qa on IRC, "Fedora QA (Quality Assurance)" on Matrix).
Thanks a lot, folks!
