Prerequisite for Test Day
- A virtual machine or a bare metal machine
- The latest compose should work fine for x86_64 and aarch64
How to test?
Visit the results page and click on the column title links to see the tests that need to be run: most column titles are links to a specific test case. Follow the instructions there, then enter your results by clicking the Enter result button for the test.
The test images for this Test Day are patched to use btrfs by default, so when running the install test cases, you can just install as usual without doing anything special for partitioning and the installed system should use btrfs. You can check this with mount
after logging into the installed system, if you like.
Please also try to experiment and explore and perform tasks not mentioned in any of the pre-defined test cases.
Reporting bugs
All bugs should be reported into Bugzilla, in most cases against the anaconda
component. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask us on IRC (see instructions above).
Test Results
Test results will be exported here once the test day is over. See How to test? section for information how to submit results and see the live results.
