== What to test? ==

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on '''Fedora Linux 36 Cloud Base images'''

== Who's available ==

The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
* Development - [[User:dustymabe|Dustymabe]] (irc dustymabe), [[User:davedunc|davedunc]] (irc davedunc), [[User:mhayden|mhayden]] (irc mhayden), [[User:otubo|otubo]] (irc otubo)
* Quality Assurance - [[User:kparal|Kamil Paral]] (irc kparal), [[User:coremodule|Geoff Marr]] (irc coremodule), [[User:sumantrom|Sumantro Mukherjee]] (irc sumantrom)

== Prerequisite for Test Day == 
=== Fedora Cloud Base ===

This section is for the Fedora Cloud Base images, which can be used to run a yum/dnf based fedora in the cloud or as a VM. There are also Vagrant boxes available.

If you have access to an AWS account then please try out an AMI from the following list:
<pre>
This section will be populated a day before the test day happens
</pre>


A fresh system, [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Local_Test_Cloud_Installation_Guide testcloud] to test qcow images locally, or access to a cloud provider like OpenStack or AWS, and a desire to break software.

=== Qcow2 images ===

The Fedora Cloud Base image are also delivered as qcow2 images. You can use [https://pagure.io/testcloud testcloud] to locally boot and test either of these images. You can run testcloud from a git checkout, or use dnf to install it:

<code>
sudo dnf install virt-install
</code>

Once it's installed, you can launch a VM directly with:

<pre>
echo mypasswd > passwordfile
virt-install --import --name cloudtest \
--memory 2000 --network bridge=virbr0 \
--os-variant detect=on,name=fedora-unknown \
--cloud-init root-password-file=./passwordfile \
--disk=size=10,backing_store="/path/to/Fedora-Cloud-Base-xxx.qcow2"
</pre>

Note that you can only log in with a password on the console
of the machine. Not via SSH. If you'd like to ssh you can use:

<pre>
virt-install --import --name cloudtest \
--memory 2000 --network bridge=virbr0 \
--os-variant detect=on,name=fedora-unknown \
--cloud-init ssh-key=/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub \
--disk=size=10,backing_store="/path/to/Fedora-Cloud-Base-xxx.qcow2"
</pre>

If you'd like to use your own cloud-init yaml file to test with
you can do that too. Here's is a very short example. First create
a file with name '''cloudinit-user-data.yaml''':

<pre>
#cloud-config
password: 'mypasswd'
chpasswd: { expire: false }
</pre>

Then run:

<pre>
virt-install --import --name cloudtest \
--memory 2000 --network bridge=virbr0 \
--os-variant detect=on,name=fedora-unknown \
--cloud-init user-data=/path/to/cloudinit-user-data.yaml \
--disk=size=10,backing_store="/path/to/Fedora-Cloud-Base-xxx.qcow2"
</pre>

You can also boot qcow2 images using virtualization clients like virt-manager or VirtualBox with instruction provided [http://www.projectatomic.io/docs/quickstart/ here]

== How to test? ==

This testday is more general, so attempt to do anything and everything with these images :) Specifically though, we'd like to take a look at the following scenarios:

'''Cloud:'''
* Test different cloud-init configs
* Deploy and run some applications in the cloud

'''EC2'''
If you have access to Amazon EC2, you can use one of the AMIs listed above for testing.

=== Run the tests ===

Visit the [http://testdays.fedorainfracloud.org/events/133 result page] and click on the column title links to see the tests that need to be run: most column titles are links to a specific test case. Follow the instructions there, then enter your results by clicking the ''Enter result'' button for the test.

This testday is also meant to be exploratory, so the list on the testday app is not at all comprehensive!

== Reporting bugs ==

If you find anything that seems wrong or off, please report a bug on [https://bugzilla.redhat.com Bugzilla]. The affected component should be clear from whatever error message you happen to find, but if you aren't sure, ask in IRC. 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.

== Test Results ==
