What to test?[edit]

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on:

Who's available[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

Prerequisites for Test Day[edit]

You will need a Fedora 11 Beta system with root access (as we are going to work with yum and rpm). You should have your favourite package set installed. We will provide a repo with F11 Snapshot1 packages with delta RPMs and presto metadata generated, so everybody can do Beta -> Snapshot1 upgrade. Unfortunately there is no live CD for this test day, as you need an installed system to properly test this feature.

i386[edit]

cat <<EOF> /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-presto-testday.repo
[PrestoTestDay]
name=PrestoTestDay F11 Snapshot1 with drpms
baseurl=http://people.redhat.com/psklenar/repodata/i386/Packages
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF

x86_64[edit]

cat <<EOF> /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-presto-testday.repo
[PrestoTestDay]
name=PrestoTestDay F11 Snapshot1 with drpms
baseurl=http://skvidal.fedorapeople.org/presto-test/x86_64/Packages/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF


Remove with caution
You will be removing packages, make sure not to remove any important ones like kernel, glibc and so on - it happened before!

How to test?[edit]

What do we want to test exactly? We want to ensure, that packages serching/installing/updating/uninstalling works, that it works in all the different ways users are using it and that Presto related tools also works.

Dependencies?

Results[edit]

We will store results in the table below. This page is editable without a Fedora login for those who do not want to sign the CLA, but if you do have a FAS account, please log in before editing.

If you find a bug, please report it through Bugzilla and make it depend on bug PrestoTestDay (just put PrestoTestDay into the Blocks: field). If you do not have an account there, you may create one, or just ask somebody on the #fedora-qa to report the bug for you.
