Introduction
This page is intended to gather feedback from the Fedora QA community on things that worked well and things that could have been better with the testing of Fedora 14. The feedback will be used as a basis for identifying areas for improvement for Fedora 14 testing. Any thoughts, big or small, are valuable. If someone already provided feedback similar to what you'd like to add, don't worry ... add your thoughts regardless.
For any questions or concerns, send mail to test@lists.fedoraproject.org.

Feedback
Things that went well
- jlaska - Beta released on time - Without a strong turn-out from the fedora-qa community, there is little chance that we would had the test results needed in order to properly assert that the beta release criteria had been met.
Could have been better
Fedora 16 alpha (Gnome) fails to complete properly (and does not give compliance warnings) when an NVIDIA Quadro FX3400SLI (HP Supplied) is installed in an HP XW4600 Workstation. (Works fine with NVIDIA GeForce similarly scaled cards). Under Fedora 15 (Gnome) the Quadro card reports no support under Gnome 3. - Cheers - reynolds@mira.net
- jlaska - Beta RC delayed - Beta RC candidates were delivered late ... why? What can be improved next time?
- jlaska - Fixing more than blockers - For F-14-Alpha, a new anaconda with 2 blocker bug fixes was requested, but the new version contained many more fixes. Question, did the additional bug fixes break anything?
- Recommendation - Early creation of f14-{alpha,beta,final} git branches for anaconda to allow for more control over commits.
- jlaska - Root cause analysis - on why the following issues were discovered late
- RHBZ #635396 - ConsoleKit session not properly opened (xfce)
- RHBZ #635395 - ConsoleKit session not properly opened (lxde)
- RHBZ #627789 - several users reporting problems installing from HD ISO due to this bug. However, testing RC3 showed no problems installing HD ISO ... there is a disconnect somewhere between the use case exercised and the test case?
- jlaska - Beta RC delayed - Beta RC candidates were delivered late ... why? What can be improved next time?

Recommendations
After enough time has been given for feedback, the QA team will discuss and make recommendations on changes to prioritize for Fedora 14. This section organizes and lists the recommendations.
In order to coordinate efforts, and measure effectiveness of recommendations, please record and track any action taken in the Fedora 15 roadmap in the QA TRAC instance.
Recommendations will arrive typically after problems have been diagnosed and improvements reviewed. This typically occurs after the release. Stay tuned ...
