Template:Installation test matrix

Template documentation [edit]

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Installation test matrix/doc. It will not be transcluded on pages that use this template.

Wikitcms core page
This page is a core component of the Wikitcms system for storing release validation testing results in the Fedora wiki. This system relies on specific expectations regarding page naming, contents, and categorization. Please take special care when editing this page, especially if you change any element of wiki syntax, especially templating elements. If you are at all unsure about the consequences of your planned change, please contact the QA group before applying it.

This template contains the Installation 'test matrix' of test cases that are usually executed as part of release validation testing. It is pulled into release validation results pages using several nested templates, and can be used in other pages as appropriate. If all you need to do is add, remove or edit a Installation validation test case, though, don't worry about that stuff, and put it in here.

Please click [show] in each table to view the tests of each media installation, and click [edit] to post your test results using the syntax in Key Section.

Default boot and install
Bare metal testing required Running these tests in a virtualized environment is valuable, but the test must pass on bare metal using a physical install medium for each release-blocking image in each test environment at least for the final release candidate image (i.e. the released image) for each milestone. Single test table In all of these tests, the test case used is QA:Testcase_Boot_default_install. That is where the links point. The same test needs to be run for multiple images and target platforms. Note that the non-installer-based ARM disk images are covered by the later #ARM disk images section.
