What to test?
This part of today's Fedora Test Day will focus on testing the new libguestfs / guestfish feature in Fedora 12.
If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test libguestfs and provide feedback.
Who's available
Richard Jones is your host for today.
The following people have also agreed to be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion:
- add your name here
What's needed to test
- A fully updated Fedora 12 Rawhide machine. See instructions on the main test day page. Note you can use a virtual machine for testing!
- (Optional) Existing virtual machine disk images.
How to test
Look at the Test Cases section below and run through them.
Add your comments below this in the Issues that were identified section, and/or file bugs in Bugzilla by following this link.
