How to test?

This Test Day has two parts. First part is covered by test cases and it's focused on testing new functionality in both X and Wayland sessions. Second is exploratory testing when you are free to use software how do you like. Don't worry and try to break Gnome in various ways which you expect to work.

We expect results from various types of environments like liveCDs, classical installations, bare metal, any VM type, low resources HW, etc.

Update your machine

If you're running Fedora 21, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager.

Live image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Testing and reporting results

The testing page provides a list of the tests to run, and lets you report your results. Clicking on a test name will show you the instructions for doing that test, and clicking 'Enter result' will let you enter your result for that test. For the Hardware name, please enter the model number for your graphics adapter as precisely as you can. You can use the lspci -nn command to provide the PCI ID, if you are comfortable doing so.

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to GNOME Bugzilla for the appropriate component. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC and we will help you.
