Associated release criterion
This test case is associated with the Basic_Release_Criteria#desktop-background release criterion. If you are doing release validation testing, a failure of this test case may be a breach of that release criterion. If so, please file a bug and nominate it as blocking the appropriate milestone, using the blocker bug nomination page.

Description
This test case checks that appropriate artwork and release identification are in place throughout a typical deployment and boot of Fedora.
Only artwork and release identification issues
Please note that this test case assumes the install and boot process works normally. If you encounter a different bug while running this test, please report it as a bug and report a failure for the most appropriate test case you can find in the matrices. If you are able to work around the bug and complete this test and discover no artwork or release identification issues, you may still report a 'pass' for this test. If the bug prevents you from fully completing this test, please report either a 'warn' or no result.

How to test
Test procedure
- Throughout the following steps, look for any form of 'release identification' - e.g. text stating "Fedora", or "Fedora Server", or "Fedora 42", or "Fedora Beta", or anything else along those lines. If you notice any case of incorrect identification, then this should be reported as a bug and as a failure of this test. When testing a Final release candidate, there should nothing that identifies the release as a pre-release of any kind.
- Similarly, look out for everything that looks like Fedora-sourced 'artwork'. If you spot any artwork that is clearly associated with a different Fedora release - e.g. a desktop background from the previous release - this is likely a bug, and should be reported as such. If you are testing a Final release candidate, any artwork that implies or suggests the release is a pre-release is also likely a bug. If you encounter artwork you're not sure is correct or appropriate, please report this as a bug, and report the result of this test as 'warn'.
- Install or deploy the Fedora release you wish to test, with the desired package set. Set a root password, but do not create a standard user account during installation.
- Boot the installed system, observing any artwork and release identification that appear in the bootloader and during the boot process.
- If a 'first boot' utility runs, use it to create a user account, while observing any artwork and release identification.
- Observe any artwork and release identification at the login screen. Particularly, if doing a graphical install, check the background image. Log in as the created user account (if a 'first boot' tool ran) or as root (if not). Observe any artwork and release identification that appear during and immediately after login - again, if doing a graphical install, particularly check the desktop background.
- Check the contents of common release identification files, e.g.
/etc/fedora-releaseand/etc/os-release. - If doing a graphical install, check obvious places where release artwork and identification may be found, e.g. the About pane in GNOME Settings.
Expected Results
- Any form of release identification that refers to a distribution name must state 'Fedora'.
- Any form of release identification that refers to a release phase / milestone (e.g. Beta) must refer to the correct one. For Final composes, nothing may identify the release as a pre-release.
- Any form of release identification that refers to an Edition (Server, Workstation, Atomic etc.) must refer to the correct one.
- Any form of release identification that refers to a release number must refer to the correct one.
- If the release being tested is a Beta pre-release or candidate compose, the default desktop backgrounds from the previous two stable releases may not appear as the default desktop background (or login manager background, or 'first boot' utility background, or really anywhere).
- If the release being tested is a Final pre-release or candidate compose, the artwork used in the 'first boot' utility (if any), login manager (if any) and on the desktop (particularly the background) must be the correct and current artwork proposed for the release in question by the design team. If a background or artwork is used in the bootloader menu screen or the graphical boot process it must be either entirely generic (such as the Fedora logo) or part of the correct and current proposed artwork.
