Hey and Welcome Matt!
You can start with Release Validation testing. In Release Validation all you need to do is to check the nightly/TC/RC against certain criteria. For example, let's take the latest nightly, you can run test cases which are mentioned [1] and submit your results in the test matrix.
Note that each of the test cases[2] will have "How to test" section which will have the steps (to be executed sequentially) and if the results match with the expected results you can mark it as pass by editing the wiki page {{result|PASS|<fas_username>}} . Always make sure to check for "Associated release criterion" which can be found on the top of test case page , if your test case fails you can mark it fail by editing the wiki page {{result|FAIL|<fas_username>}} and file a bug at RHBZ [3] under Fedora.
You can always find the ‘current’ validation pages using these addresses:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Server_Test
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Cloud_Test
You can also do update-testing, update testing is where a tester tests a package and gives out a +1 Karma for PASS and -1 Karma for FAIL. You can go to bodhi.fedoraproject.org where you can sort the packages with Fedora Releases and tags viz "pending" & "testing" . You can read much about update testing here [4]. You can also, use fedora-easy-karma for giving out feedbacks.

Should you have any question, you reach out to me directly or in the list!
I've been using some flavor of linux since the early days, 1994ish...so yeah I'm also in my forties (42 to be exact).Hi all,I'm interested in helping out in the QA group. I'm a linux system administrator, primarily I've worked with Red Hat / CentOS. I've been using Fedora off and on for a while, but came back to using Fedora as my primary personal OS since Fedora 22.I'm looking forward to contributing and helping out where I can.MattIRC: mwd5650
