This might prevent any "test this RC in 24 hours" efforts What do you think about pushing back the whole schedule one week? Or two weeks? Final freeze becomes, Tue 2020-04-14 Preferred release becomes, Tue 2020-04-28 Additionally, seriously consider "RC required by" the Monday before Go/No-Go. Or even the Friday before? And if not, automatically add a week. > * Testcase_dualboot_with_macOS -- Our old Mac Mini stayed in the office, so we can't evaluate this one. OTOH, our tests decrease in value every cycle, because our Mac is archaic and doesn't even contain the latest OS version, so it differs very much from what is commonly available on the market these days. Yes and the now three year old write up I did to restore a mac to near "out of box" condition without having to do a clean install, is obsolete. Apple uses a completely different file system and layout than back then. Reasonable versions for testing: High Sierra macOS 10.13.x (September 2017) Mojave OS X 10.14.x (September 2018) Catalina OS X 10.15.x (October 2019) All three of these use APFS by default. There's a decent cutoff of hardware starting with Mojave, which is why I include High Sierra. https://eshop.macsales.com/guides/Mac_OS_X_Compatibility > * Testcase_audio_basic, Testcase_desktop_menus, Testcase_desktop_automount -- These might be harder to check with the exact RC due to limited access to bare metal (unless we want to reinstall our own laptops each time). This mostly affects certain applications that often behave differently on bare metal than in a VM, like video players, or testing hw-only stuff like USB, webcam, suspend, etc. But since we all run F32 now (I think), our own laptops provide us with a decent level of certainty that that stuff works (even when we're not in that exact software configuration). > * Testcase_Printing_New_Printer (real printer) - Only few people have a real printer at home, I think. I don't. I do but it's not an IPP Everywhere printer. We might need an exception whereby we ask for extra print testing with whatever people have, just to make sure it's not completely broken. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
