Description

This test case checks, whether the release repository and install media contain all packages and information required for release (e.g. release notes, fedora-release package, ...). This test doesn't need to be done on machine with new release installed.


How to test

  1. Install package spin-kickstarts
  2. Download this script and execute it. It will check, whether kickstarts from the package spin-kickstarts define right repositories.
  3. Uninstall spin-kickstarts
  4. Mount DVD.iso. You can do it for example by running command su -c 'mount -o loop Fedora-17-Alpha-x86_64-DVD.iso /media'
  5. Look if DVD.iso contains fedora-release and fedora-release-notes packages. You can do it by command ls /<path to the mounted iso>/Packages/fedora-release*
  6. There must also be generic packages in release repository. Check this up by running command yum --releasever=$RV search generic-release where $RV is release version you are testing.

Expected Results

  1. Script kickstart_test.py shouldn't write out any error.
  2. There should be all packages with release informations and release notes in repository and on the install medium.
