This page is intended to record installation validation testing test results for the Fedora 21 Alpha RC1 milestone.
Instructions
This page tracks test results against the Fedora 21 Alpha RC1 build. Test results against other Fedora 21 milestones can be found at Category:Fedora_21_Test_Results. The explanation of test case priority is available in the release validation test plan.
What To Test
- Download the required ISO images for the candidate build under test. Some tests must be run against particular Products or images - for example, the #Default boot and install tests. If no particular product or image is specified either in this page or the test case page, you can use any appropriate image. For example, you can run most of the #General Tests with the Workstation live image, or either of the Server install images.
- Delta_ISOs for install images are available here. If you have the Server offline install image for the previous TC/RC (or in the case of Alpha TC1, the previous stable release), you can generate the current install image with greatly reduced download size.
Who's available
The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, general discussion ...
Add or Remove a Test Case

Default boot and install
Bare metal testing required
Running these tests in a virtualized environment is valuable, but the test must pass on bare metal using a physical install medium for each release-blocking image in each test environment at least for the final release candidate image (i.e. the released image) for each milestone.
In all of these tests, the test case used is QA:Testcase_Boot_default_install. That is where the links point. The same test needs to be run for multiple images and target platforms. Note that the non-installer-based ARM disk images are covered by the later #ARM disk images section.
- ↑ Workstation Live
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 RHBZ #1142862
- ↑ just a VM
- ↑ f21-tC6 - last build with kickstart.file before naming change error
USB stick
- ↑ SoaS-i386
- ↑ Wks x86_64
- ↑ KDE i386 (disks)
ARM disk images
In all of these tests, the test case used is QA:Testcase_arm_image_deployment. That is where the links point. The same test needs to be run for multiple images and target platforms.
