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, 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.

What to test?[edit]

This Test Day will focus on GNOME 44 Desktop and Core Apps.

Who's available?[edit]

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

Development - Kalev Lember (kalev), Allan Day (aday)
Quality Assurance - Sumantro Mukherjee (sumantrom), Geoffrey Marr (coremodule), Kamil Paral (kparal), Adam Williamson (adamw)

You can chat with us on Matrix or IRC. See the infobox on top of the page to learn where to join.

Prerequisites for Test Day[edit]

Fedora 38 Workstation nightly ISO image installed on either bare metal or in a virtual machine. (Make sure you have no important data on that system. Things might go wrong -- don't do this on your production machine!)
If you already have Fedora 38 Workstation installed, there's no need to reinstall, but just make sure you have the latest updates installed.

How to test?[edit]

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.

Please also try to experiment and explore and perform tasks not mentioned in any of the pre-defined test cases.

Fedora 38 and GNOME 44 include a number of new features that would benefit from additional testing. These include:

A new Bluetooth menu in the system menu
A new background apps list in the system menu (works for Flatpaks that are running without a window)
Redesigned settings:
- Mouse & touchpad
- Sound
- Device security (under privacy)
Improved drag and drop in the app grid
New grid view in the file chooser (shown only for GTK 4 apps, or those using the file chooser portal)
Wireguard VPN support
Wi-Fi network sharing using a QR code
In Files, the view expand folders in list view option has been restored.

Reporting bugs[edit]

Perhaps you've found an already-reported bug. Please look at:

All new bugs should be reported into the GNOME bug tracker. A less-preferred alternative is to file them into Red Hat Bugzilla. General desktop issues are generally reported against gnome-shell, and applications have their own separate projects.

We really need bug reports!
Please note that just mentioning your problem into the comments section on the results page is not very helpful. Very often those problems only happen in specific circumstances, or with specific steps taken. We need the logs and screenshots, and we need to be able to ask you followup questions. Please file bug reports, it's much more useful than a short comment. Thank you!

When filing the bug, it's very helpful to include:

exact steps you've performed (and whether you can reproduce it again)
screenshots or videos, if applicable
system journal (log), which you can retrieve by journalctl -b > journal.txt
all output in a terminal, if started from a terminal
your system description

If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask us.

Please make sure to link to the bug when submitting your test result, thanks!

Test Results[edit]

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.

tflink	libvirt VM	fail ^[1]	↑ Selecting "Log out" under the "Power Off" brings up the expected dialog box saying that <user> will be automatically logged out in 60 seconds with "cancel and "Log Out". Clicking on "Log Out" dismisses that dialog box bug doesn't log out my user. 60 seconds after clicking on "Log Out" under the "Power Off" menu, my user is logged out. It's almost like the "Log Out" button on that dialog doesn't work and I'm only logged out when the automatic logout would have happened if I didn't click on anything. Clicking the "cancel" button on the dialog box does cancel the logout process.

[1] Privacy: clicking location service privacy policy link has no effect. Online accounts: clicking Google causes the window to be shaded, no secondary window appears. Can't interact with the initial setup window after that.

[2] Sound not working with vsoundcard installed. Mouse & touchpad settings work correctly. Files options work fine.

[8] 1. Initial setup failed while trying to add Google/Gmail account. No error message, just hangs. Skipped adding google/gmail account, and it worked fine.

[9] Install and initial setup worked as expected. Gnome tour crashes as previously reported.
