| == How To Test == | | == How to test? == |
|
| |
|
| Testing will require using a system running [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]]. There are several methods available for updating your system to rawhide. The following sections outline two methods.
| | === Update your machine === |
|
| |
|
| === Download Media ===
| | See the instructions on the [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. |
|
| |
|
| Some tests will require that you download a <code>boot.iso</code> from [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] or [http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-prerelease F-11-Beta] for your architecture.
| | === Live Image === |
|
| |
|
| {|
| | Optionally, you may download a non-destructive rawhide live image for your architecture: |
| ! Rawhide !! Fedora 11 Beta
| | * [PLACEHOLDER i386] |
| |-
| | * [PLACEHOLDER x86_64] |

| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
|
| Alternatively, you may download a <code>efidisk.img</code> from [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] or [http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-prerelease F-11-Beta] for your architecture.
| | Tips on how to use the Live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]]. |

| === Testing === | | === Filing Bugs === |
|
| |
|
| Perform each of the following test cases:
| | All bugs will be tracked in [[Bugzilla]]. To file a bug found testing [[Features/EFI]], [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&component=uefi&version=rawhide&short_desc=%5BUEFI%20Test%20Day%5D&cf_qa_whiteboard=TestDay click here] |
|
| |
|
| ''' Boot tests'''
| | === Testing === |
| | |
| The following tests do not depend on having a running Beta or rawhide system. They need only boot media (or PXE), whose images can be downloaded from daily rawhide, for instance. In the case of Apple Macintosh hardware with Intel CPU, this is good because it is difficult to complete a successful install of Fedora 11 Beta; for instance: BZ 444490 or 494390.

| {{admon/note|Updates required|Due to a bug in anaconda, the use of an [[Anaconda/Updates|updates image]] is required to complete an installation. Anaconda fixes for UEFI testing will be added to http://clumens.fedorapeople.org/updates.img. To use the updates.img, you must boot with the following option: <pre>updates=http://clumens.fedorapeople.org/updates.img</pre> }}
| |
| | |
| === Report your results === | |
| | |
| If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&component=uefi&version=rawhide&short_desc=%5BUEFI%20Test%20Day%5D&cf_qa_whiteboard=TestDay Bugzilla]. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you.
| |
| | |
| {{admon/note|NDA Hardware?|If testing on hardware not yet released, you may desire to set the appropriate confidential privacy flag on your bug.}}
| |
| | |
| Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below.
| |
|
| |
|
| The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt). For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word '''PASS'''. If you had trouble, enter the word '''FAIL''', as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the multihead test as you have only one display), enter the word '''N/A'''. In the comments column, enter any additional information that is related to your testing.
| | Perform each of the following test cases that you are able to with the resources available to you. |
