You can always start reading https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join. Since, I see you already have FAS account , you can go ahead with release validation test[1] by grabbing an iso image from [2] and running test cases from [3] for reference you can read [4]. As Fedora 24 is releasing in less than 24 hrs , release validation testing will be a bit quieter , although by next week we will have our first Fedora 25 nightly nominated for Release Validation! Other than the above , you can always start update testing for Fedora 24 Updates, by grabbing the same .iso mentioned above or by upgrading your existing Fedora 23 using instruction here [5] . After a upgrade or fresh Fedora 24 install you can start off by going to [6] and sign in using your FAS account , following the instruction at [7] will help you run update testing , for reference you can read [8]. We are planning to have a Fedora QA onboarding hangout call, let me know if you are interested in participating. Should you have any question or issues , feel free to shoot me a mail!
