= problem =
Sometimes, we publish spins that are completely DOA.
= analysis =
There is no mandatory testing of any Fedora images beyond netinst, DVD and
the two release blocking desktop live spins, as things stand, but we
publish rather more spins than that. In practice we test Xfce, LXDE, SoaS
and AMI images to some extent, but others are rarely touched.
= enhancement recommendation =
viking-ice has suggested that we should produce some kind of validation
matrix which has very basic, generic smoke tests: basically, does the
image at least boot up sanely? We would require there to be a PASS for
these mandatory smoke tests present in that matrix for a spin image to be
published on the spins page. QA does not commit to doing the actual
testing; we may do so if we have time, but ultimately, if a spin owner
wants to have their spin published, it's their responsibility to get the
testing done, either by poking QA, doing it themselves, or getting someone
else to do it.
