=== Filing bugs === Please file the bugs you might find during the upgrade process at Launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+filebug) and tag your bug as $dist-upgrade (i.e. ubuntu-upgrade, kubuntu-upgrade). Please attach all the files you find at /var/log/dist-upgrade/ to your bug report. == Sessions == We will be running some introductory sessions about the tools and procedures to make testing easier and more efficient. Use your IRC client (such as xchat, irssi or mIRC) to connect to the Freenode IRC network at irc.freenode.net. You can do this manually by typing: {{{ /server irc.freenode.net }}} Then join #ubuntu-classroom for the time and date of the session you want to attend (see the timetable below). You can manually join the channel by typing: {{{ /join #ubuntu-classroom}}} You should also join `#ubuntu-classroom-chat` which is the general discussion channel for the session. Questions should be posted there. You should prefix your questions with '''QUESTION:''' to make them easier to spot. === Time table === || '''Session''' || '''Time''' || '''Who''' || || '''[[http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/10/06/%23ubuntu-classroom.html|Testing Infrastructure]]''' || '''15h (UTC)''' || Marc Tardif (cr3) || |
The Ubuntu Testing day is a special day where the Ubuntu Community comes together with a shared goal of testing an specific set of ISO images (Alpha, Beta, RC, Gold or Point releases), an specific feature or some bugs needing verification. Taking the idea from the UbuntuBugDay, we want to apply the same concepts to ISO testing.
Join the Testing Day
Who can join the Testing Day? Everyone. You don't need to be a developer. You don't need to know how to code. Everyone is welcome. If you don't know how to help, then just stop on by and we'll explain everything to you. In fact, one of the objectives of the Testing Day is to help people willing to start testing Ubuntu to make it better.
Where to join the Testing Day? Come to #ubuntu-testing on freenode IRC. Normal testing activity takes place in #ubuntu-testing at other times also.
5-a-day-ing
During testing days you can also do 5-A-Day for this one you can do the following in order to tag your work on the testing day:
- 5-a-day --add-tag testingday-20081110
- Add bugs to 5-a-day as usual when creating, verifying or commenting on bugs
- And when done with testing day run: 5-a-day --remove-tag testingday-20081110
Which is the goal for this testing day?
We know we just released Intrepid a week ago, but we have a lot of pending SRU bugs in Hardy needing verification. Hardy is a LTS release, and therefore it needs to be kept in shape for a longer period. SRU is the process for getting updates into a stable release. Please, refer to the SRU wiki page for more information on the process.
How do I help?
If you are running Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron), you can help by verifying some of the bugs that need verification. Pick as many as you want from the list below.
Once you have picked a bug, you have to:
- Verify that you don't have installed the version of the package in the column "Proposed".
- Reproduce the bug described in the bug report.
Install the corresponding -proposed package (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed)
- Verify that the bug is solved in the -proposed package.
- Put your name in the last column. This will let people know that the bug in that row has been tested.
- If the bug is still present in the -proposed package:
- Set the bug report Status: In Progress.
- Describe why the fix was rejected in a comment to the bug report.
- Modify the verification-needed tag to a verification-failed tag on the bug report.
- Set the row's background to red by adding red in the first cell of the column after rowbgcolor=.
- If the fix was good and the bug is no longer in the -proposed package:
- Modify the verification-needed tag to a verification-done tag on the bug report.
- Describe the general steps taken to verify the package, any special difficulties, and the recommended upload date.
- Set the row's background to green by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after rowbgcolor=.
