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.

How to test?

Update your machine

If you're running Fedora 22, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. If you want to try Rawhide, see the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:

Live image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive Rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD. Live images can be found here.

Get latest abrt/libreport packages

The latest versions are:

 satyr-0.16-1.fc22
 libreport-2.5.1-1.fc22
 abrt-2.5.1-1.fc22
 gnome-abrt-1.1.1-1.fc22

Use the following command to install/update all of them:

 yum -y install --enablerepo=updates-testing \
 abrt abrt-addon-ccpp abrt-addon-kerneloops abrt-addon-python abrt-addon-vmcore abrt-addon-xorg \

Make sure that:

# systemctl status abrt-ccpp.service

Test Results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component abrt, or gnome-abrt for bugs in the ABRT graphical front end itself. 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. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from the first line as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one. For each test case, use the result template to enter your result, as shown in the example result line.
