What to test?
Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on:
If you come to this page after the test day, your testing of SSSD is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test SSSD in your setup and provide feedback. The provided LDAP server may no longer be available, so the steps to test against a private LDAP server should be followed in this case.
Who's available
The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
- Development - Stephen Gallagher, Simo Sorce
- Quality Assurance - User:zmraz, User:mmalik
Prerequisites for Test Day
FIXME - subject to change when the LiveCD appears.
Update your machine
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.
| Architecture | MD5SUM |
|---|---|
| i386 | 022137eeb466410221a3339519a867c7 |
| x86_64 | 68db3894c1d47dba2ae73330fbd5e409 |
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using
yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux
How to test?
Before proceeding to the test cases themselves, you need to install and configure sssd. The necessary steps are outlined on the Installation page. If you are using the Test Day live image, the installation steps will be completed for you.
When done, please follow each of these test cases:
NSS (User identity)
- Local identity native to SSSD
- Legacy local identity provided by traditional files
- Remote identity provided by legacy LDAP
- Remote identity provided by private legacy LDAP (optional)
PAM (User authentication)
- Authentication of native local users
- Authentication of legacy local users through SSSD
- Authentication of LDAP users by native SSSD backend
- Authentication of legacy LDAP users through SSSD
- Authentication of private LDAP users by native SSSD backend (optional)
- Authentication of legacy private LDAP users through SSSD (optional)
Report your Results
If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Trac. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, 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 Stephen Gallagher 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, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had trouble, enter the word FAIL, as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the private LDAP test as you do not have access to an LDAP server), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter any short, additional information about your testing environment.
NSS Tests

| Zbysek MRAZ | PASS | PASS | PASS | - | |
| Robert M Williams | PASS | PASS | PASS | - | LiveCD in VM |
PAM Tests
