Re: Need help ?
Thanks Adam and Kamil for your suggestions. As I said I am fairly new to LInux so a few weeks ago I signed up with Linux academy and have been coming up to speed. I was introduced to Unix in the early 80s, sat beside the Ultrix group at DEC in NH - they were always asking us to see if something worked on our machine. That allowed me to get by in Linux when I needed to over the years - but of course things have changed a bit. I am also learning by creating, installing and tearing down my own instances with Virtual box and Digital ocean. I'll take a look at Fedora gooey karma to start with, see what I can do. Also take a look at the test system docs. -Ellen On Mon, Sep 4, 2017 at 2:33 PM, Adam Williamsonwrote: > On Fri, 2017-09-01 at 20:57 +, Ellen OSullivan wrote: > > I'm dev/qa automation at work > > BTW, we have two major test automation systems that we work on actively > at present, Taskotron and openQA.

(I need to go through and check the requests list, though - I didn't look at it for a couple of weeks). Thanks! As Kamil mentioned, one task we have ATM is fixing fedora-gooey-karma: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/fedora-gooey-karma to run correctly on recent Fedora releases and/or with current Bodhi and Koji. There are several bugzilla bugs likely related to this: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/fedora-gooey-karma/bugs/all so really the job is just to keep fixing it till it works :P There is also a task for enhancing fedora-easy-karma: https://pagure.io/fedora-easy-karma to handle the Bodhi 2.0 features - mainly, allow you to include feedback for the feedback items other than "does the update generally work?": https://pagure.io/fedora-easy-karma/issue/3 I also see another f-e-k issue related to the Bodhi client library it uses: https://pagure.io/fedora-easy-karma/issue/1 Another thing that came up while I was talking to Sumantro at Flock is that it'd be nice to enhance relvalconsumer: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/relvalconsumer to include a list of the top 5, 10 or 20 most-desired validation test cases with each announcement of a new validation testing event. This has substantial overlap with the testcase_stats stuff: https://www.happyassassin.net/testcase_stats/27/ https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/relval/blob/master/f/relval/testcase_stats.py so architecting it could be a bit of a difficult question, I'm not sure off the top of my head how I'd go about that. It might require substantial refactoring, or just having relvalconsumer call relval in some way. But it's another thing that would be nice to have :) One more thing Sumantro and I discussed is that the tooling that generates the Heroes of Fedora posts: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Recognition is kinda messy - you have to do much more manual work than you really should in order to produce the desired output. It'd be nice to improve this, perhaps by consolidating the three separate tools somehow, and improving the way they output data (I think one idea was to have them output to some machine-friendly intermediate form, e.g. json, then have parsers for turning that into text, html or whatever else is desired). Please do ask if you need further information or details on any of these tasks! Sumantro may have others that I mentioned at Flock but have since forgotten, too. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net ___ qa-devel mailing list -- qa-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to qa-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
