I did have one doubt in mind. Does the Results page for any of the test weeks get updated as soon as we enter our results? I was asking this because i did run the default test for the kernel 5.8 test week and it passed i also entered the output on the results page but i don't see my report on the result page. Is there anything else i need to do?

Hey Arna!
Welcome to Fedora QA, It will be great if you apply for qa FAS group.
If you have, I have sponsored you by now. If you haven't then please
apply and send me an email with your FAS ID and I will approve.
You can start off by testing updates in
[http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/] for Fedora 31, Fedora 32, and Fedora
33. 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 [1]. You can also, use fedora-easy-karma for
giving out feedbacks.
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 compose (Fedora 33
Rawhide 20200811.n.0), you can run test cases which are mentioned [2]
and submit your results in the test matrix.
Note that each of the test cases[3] 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 [4] under Fedora.
You can always find the ‘current’ validation pages using these addresses:

I have been using Linux for my primary development machine for about 7 years now and have some experience in building kernels from source and installing them. Moreover i spend quite some time tinkering with linux, so i thought the joining the QA team could help me develop my troubleshooting skills and also give back to the community at the same time.
