More test coverage for Boxes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi,
Boxes is the pre-installed solution for VMs on Workstation, but it
doesn't get as much attention as it should.
Currently development composes of F24 don't even work in Boxes on F23,
so users who'd like to test F24 in the default VM app are out of luck.
It clearly violates one of the release criteria:https://fedoraproject.o
rg/wiki/Fedora_24_Beta_Release_Criteria#Guest_on_current_stable_release

The problem is that even though Boxes is the default VM app in
Workstation it's not among recommended Fedora virtualization tools the
criteria is referring to: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_starte
d_with_virtualization
Fedora QA also use solely virt-manager and they only test Boxes from
time to time to make sure the basic functionality works.

Boxes have been here for some time, it's our default solution, we
should make sure it's the best working desktop VM on Fedora and work
with Fedora QA on ways to improve the test coverage. I think we should
start with adding Boxes to recommended virt tools. Does anyone have an
idea if it needs to go through some committee or is it just "go ahead
and edit" wiki page?
