Description

This test case verifies selection of a specific HTTP(or FTP)-based package repository through graphical repository dialog during installation. Testing also includes verifying proper installation of packages included in the repository.


How to test

  1. Boot the installer using any available non-live means (netinst.iso, pxeboot images or DVD.iso)
  2. Enter the Installation Source screen
  3. Click the On the network radio button and change the drop-down to http:// or ftp://
  4. Complete the URL of your desired repository in the text entry field - e.g. download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/40/x86_64/os/
  5. If you have a proxy, configure a proxy as needed by clicking on Proxy setup...
  6. Configure partitioning in a normal way and complete the installation

Expected Results

  1. The package metadata from the HTTP (or FTP) repository is read correctly
  2. Installation completes and system reboots successfully
  3. The repository selected is actually used for installation: this can be checked by examining the packaging.log log file
