Fedora Quality Assurance
Activities
The Quality Assurance project is engaged in the following activities:
- Testing of software as it is released into Rawhide, updates-testing, or as it appears in a supported public release.
- Developing and executing QA/TestPlans to test important functionality in a systematic way, usually with multiple cooperating testers.
- Developing and run QA/Tools, which use automation to find potential bugs.
Other quality-related activities are handled elsewhere:
- BugZappers handle bug triage - they examine bugs reported by other people and resolve duplicates, incomplete reports, etc. BugZappers share the fedora-test-list mailing list with the QA Project.
- PackageMaintainers fix bugs identified by the QA Project, with the help of upstream authors and patches proposed by testers.
See the Testing page for setup information on the Rawhide and updates-testing repositories.
See the BugsAndFeatureRequests for information on how to file bugs effectively.
