I have a question? What do you do during testing days?
Assuming you were asking how test days work in general, not just what Johann personally does...well, it can vary between different Test Days, but usually, the idea is that the developers of some given feature or app or whatever get together with some testers in an IRC channel - #fedora-test-day - and run through some tests specific to the feature that's the subject of the test day. There's a wiki page for the test day which provides all the information on the event, lists the test cases and test instructions, and has a table that testers edit to provide their results. The IRC channel is for clarifications, extended debugging, discussing possible fixes and so forth.
Here's an example of a Test Day - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2012-04-10_KDE_4.8 . You can see the list of instructions, links to a live image that was built for the testing, the list of test cases for testers to run, and the results table at the bottom with all the results that were submitted. If you happened to have a log of #fedora-test-day for 2012-04-10 you'd see all the chatter that went on during the event. That's pretty much how they work. Hope that helps!
