Wwoods noted it would be great if there was an SOP available so that direct involvement with QA wasn't required. Jlaska pointed to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management

Updates Testing

There are some disparate efforts underway designed to improve the Updates testing workflow. Currently, the only defined process discusses using yum to enable updates-testing (see QA/Updates Testing). Jlaska asked the group for ideas on what tasks are needed to define a process by which testers can provide test feedback for updated packages.

Ideas included:

• we need a policy/sop for the 'proventesters' group
• we need a guide to providing updates-testing feedback for branched + released explaining what should be tested and how to give feedback
• we need general guidance on that which applies to all packages; having specific instructions for some is also good, but the priority should be to define exactly what the acceptance testing is supposed to check
• Improve documenting around using fedora-easy-karma

Adjust meeting time?

Kparal and jskladan asked whether the QA meeting time could adjust to keep the localtime the same, but change UTC. This would moving the meeting from 16:00 UTC to 15:00 UTC during spring+summer. No objections were made during the meeting, jlaska would raise the topic on the list as well.
