A system with Fedora 20 or 21 you can use for test purposes (i.e. you don't mind if it all goes wrong and you lose the system)! Testing with a virtual machine will be useful for many cases, and will let you run multiple tests easily.
List any prerequisite needs for the test event.  A fresh system, virtualized guest, a blank DVD ... a desire to break software?
 
* Usb key
* Usb externally connected HD IDE/SATA
* Empty HD IDE/SATA/SCSI
* Free space on HD
 
Here's a chunk which is commonly used for most Test Days. Replace XX with whatever Fedora release is pending:
 
* An updated [http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease Fedora XX pre-release], [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] (tips on installing Rawhide below), or a [http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ nightly live image]


== How to test? ==
== How to test? ==


The test procedure is simply to take a Fedora 20 or Fedora 21 installation and upgrade it to Fedora 22. To ensure you get the latest fedup for testing, run one of these two commands (depending on whether it's already installed):
High level details on how a contributor can get involved. This can include (but not limited to):


yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install fedup
* Areas to target with exploratory testing
yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update fedup
* A list of pre-defined test cases to execute
* How to report back results


{{admon/important|Check for 0.9.2-1|The newest build of fedup - 0.9.2-1 - was pushed to the mirrors only recently. The above command ''should'' install it, but please make sure that fedup-0.9.2-1 is installed after running it. If you got an older version (perhaps because of a mirror that has not yet synced) please download and install the updated version directly:
Here's another common chunk (again, replace XX as above):
* [https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/fedup/0.9.2/1.fc20/noarch/fedup-0.9.2-1.fc20.noarch.rpm fedup-0.9.2-1.fc20.noarch.rpm] (Fedora 20)
* [https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/fedup/0.9.2/1.fc21/noarch/fedup-0.9.2-1.fc21.noarch.rpm fedup-0.9.2-1.fc21.noarch.rpm] (Fedora 21)}}


To upgrade, run (F21):
=== '''Update your machine''' ===


fedup --network 22 --instrepo https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/22_Beta_RC3/Server/(arch)/os
If you're running Fedora XX, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. If you want to try Rawhide, see the instructions on the [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:


or (F20):
=== '''Live image''' ===


fedup --network 22 --product (product) --instrepo https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/22_Beta_RC3/Server/(arch)/os
Optionally, you may download a non-destructive Rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]]. Live images can be found [http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ here].


where {{code|(arch)}} is the appropriate architecture (armhfp, x86_64, or i386) and {{code|(product)}} is the most appropriate 'product' for the install - see [[FedUp#Important_Changes_in_the_Upgrade_process_to_Fedora_21|this note]].
== Test Cases ==


The idea is to test upgrades from as many different starting situations as possible - particularly with different package sets, languages, keyboard layouts, and storage configurations.
Provide a list of test areas or test cases that you'd like contributors to execute. For other examples, see [[:Category:Test_Cases]].
 
If the upgrade completes successfully, test the upgraded system to ensure it works correctly.


== Test Results ==
== Test Results ==


If any of your upgrades fails (or leads to a broken system), report a bug to [https://bugzilla.redhat.com Bugzilla]. The correct component will depend on the exact nature of the bug - ask in IRC if you're unsure. If you can't find out what component to file against, file the bug against usually for the component [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&version=22&component=fedup fedup]. Include any useful details about the system's configuration, and note that your result is part of this Test Day and mention that you followed the instructions on this page.
Construct a table or list to allow testers to post results.  Each column should be a test case or configuration, and each row should consist of test results. Include some instructions on how to report bugs, and any special instructions. Here's an example, from a Palimpsest test day:


If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from the first line as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one. In the 'Results' column, you can link to bug reports of any failed tests, and '''very briefly''' summarize your results. Please don't post long comments here, it will make the table hard to read: anything longer than a few words is likely fodder for a bug report, or mailing list post, or you can use {{code|<nowiki><ref>comment</ref></nowiki>}} to make the comment appear as a footnote below the table.
If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to [https://bugzilla.redhat.com Bugzilla] usually for the component [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&version=13&component=udisks udisks], or [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&version=13&component=gnome-disk-utility gnome-disk-utility] for bugs in the Palimpsest graphical front end itself. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from the first line as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one. For each test case, use the [[Template:result|result template]] to enter your result, as shown in the example result line.

| Tested fedup-0.9.2-1.fc20 on a Fedora20 VM (x86_64). Specifying --product workstation downloaded lots of files, but then failed to find GPG key.  Trying again with --nogpgcheck added got further, but then complained I didn't have enough free space. After finally getting 3G free, I got a warning that "yum-3.4.3-505.fc22.noarch requires yum-3.4.3-505.fc22.noarch" which looks weird, but it let me reboot to upgrade ({{bz|1214931}}). After reboot, I met with display corruption ({{bz|1214830}}), as well as a hang rather than reboot after all packages were updated and file systems were unmounted ({{bz|1209941}}). Once I got F22 booting, the initial gdm screen had no mouse cursor (I could still move the mouse until something highlights, and then click, but it's hard to move without seeing a cursor); the cursor returned once it logged in to the normal session.  A 'dnf update' succeeded once I was booted, but trying 'yum' in F22 has a missing newline ({{bz|1214839}}).
