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.

• Click on the "Community AMIs" tab.
• Enter one of the ami IDs below into the text box and follow the prompts to launch the image:

Fedora 15 Test Images

Region	Arch	Root Store	AMI ID
us-east-1	i386	instance store	ami-6ebe4507
us-east-1	x86_64	instance store	ami-72bf441b
us-east-1	i386	EBS Backed	ami-60bd4609

Testing the Images

• Launch one of the mentioned AMIs on EC2.
• Log in as 'ec2-user' using the ssh key you specified on launch
• sudo su should work without requiring a root password
• Ensure that SELinux is enabled and functional using: cat /etc/selinux/config and cat /selinux/enforce
• Ensure that your instance has network connectivity:
  • Check if your DNS is resolving: nslookup fedoraproject.org
  • Check the network settings: ifconfig and ping -c 4 fedoraproject.org
• Run some test-cases.

Test Cases

• QA:Testcase_Yum_basics
• QA:Testcase_rsyslog
• QA:Testcase_OpenSSH
• QA:Testcase_HTTPd
• Run at least one of the following MTA test-cases:
  • QA:Testcase_Sendmail
  • QA:Testcase_Postfix

Need help?

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, and the second should be a link to the Smolt profile of the system you tested. For each test case, use the result template to enter your result, as shown in the example result line.
