Once the Cockpit log in screen is loaded in your browser, log in as "root".  You can log into Cockpit as any user that exists on the machine, but currently only "root" has enough privileges to execute the test cases.  Trying with any other user, even those that are in the "wheel" group, will likely lead to techno-babble error messages.  (This will be improved as Cockpit and its dependencies evolve, of course.)

The test cases are intentionally a bit vague.  They don't tell you exactly what button to click, and what to type into which field.  You have to figure that out yourself! :-) Cockpit should be `discoverable´, and your feedback about this is very valuable.

Unfortunately, Cockpit is quite far from being finished.  There are so many things worth improving that it will be a lot of work to report them all.  For example, most of the dialogs don't do intelligent validation of user input. Thus, we can not ask you to be exhaustive.  Feel free to report only things that you consider `non-obvious´ or are particularily important to you.
