= Physical media testing =
Fedora QA is currently waiting for an Alpha Test Compose to exercise a
full installation test run [1]. However, testing prior to the compose
has unearthed several 'test blocker' bugs. As the name suggests, these
are issues that prevent further testing, notably they are blocking all
(or a majority of) tests in the installation test matrix [2]. The
current list of open 'test blocker' issues includes:
* 514501 - MODIFIED - dbus.exceptions.DBusException:
org.freedesktop.Hal.NoSuchDevice?: No device with
id /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/0
* 511907 - MODIFIED - parted.Disk.duplicate exception in storage
scan
* 510033 - MODIFIED - AttributeError?: 'NoneType?' object has no
attribute 'name'
* 514718 - MODIFIED - install exited abnormally - AttributeError?:
'NoneType?' object has no attribute 'has_key'
There is additional work underway to address installer integration with
a recent NetworkManager version. A ticket has been filed [3] for anyone
interested in monitoring the status of the Alpha test compose milestone.
= Rawhide testing =
Because rawhide testing never stops, there are several Alpha blocker bug
events [4] to help identify high-impact defects that would put the Alpha
in jeopardy. The next blocker bug event is scheduled for this Friday @
15:00 UTC in #fedora-bugzappers.
Any defects discovered while testing rawhide that should be addressed in
the Alpha should block the tracker bug#F12Alpha. Please keep in mind
the following criteria when escalating an issue:
* Can this issue be fixed with a future rawhide update or is it
part of the media kit?
* Is this defect a high (or greater) severity [5] with no, or an
unreasonable, workaround?
* Does the presence of this bug dramatically reduce test coverage?
Thanks,
James
