Can't make the date?
If you come to this page before or after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test, file any bugs you find at Bugzilla, and add your results to the results section. If this page is more than a month old when you arrive here, please check the current schedule and see if a similar but more recent Test Day is planned or has already happened.

What to test?

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Virtualization in Fedora 18. Test cases will cover basic virtualization functionality, as well as tests for new features in Fedora 18.

Who's available

The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

• Development / general help - Daniel Berrange (danpb on FreeNode)
• Development / general help - Richard W.M. Jones (rwmjones on FreeNode)
• Development / general help - Cole Robinson (crobinso on FreeNode)

What's needed to test

• A fully updated Fedora 18 Beta machine.
• Hardware virtualization support (e.g. Intel VT or AMD-V) (see How_to_debug_Virtualization_problems#Is_My_Guest_Using_KVM.3F Is My Guest Using KVM?). If unavailable, you can still help with testing QEMU support.
• At least one guest image installed before the test day (suggested reading - Virtualization_Quick_Start)
• Up to 10-20Gb free disk space. Guest images take up a lot of space.

libguestfs tools

• libguestfs
  — libguestfs, image inspection, virt tools, V2V, P2V (you will need at least one guest to test this)

GuestOS compatibility

• GuestOS compatibility
  — test installation of as many different guest operating system as as possible. (You will need a KVM bare metal host & lots of disk space)
