I've filed a ticket for this here: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/263 if you or anyone else with an interest in Xen wants to take that one on, it'd be great! Just draft up the test cases in the Wiki (your own personal space in the Wiki is a good place to keep drafts - e.g. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Adamwill/Draft_QA_Testcase_install_alongside_Windows ) and then post a mail to the list asking people to review them. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

It would be nice to expand the tests, and it kind of boils down to: 1) Does it boot 2) Does it work The complexity is that there are three modes of this: HVM (so similar to the KVM test-case), PV (we got that covered now), and the Dom0 (which is mostly - does it boot and you kind of implicitly need to do this before you can do the other two). So I think it makes sense to add the HVM case in the test-matrix - it is pretty simple and similar to the KVM one. The dom0 is a bit more complex, but we already have it outlined in the http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/XenPvopsDom0 in the Documentation part - so it should be fairly easy to lift it out of there.

Is there a need for more Xen test cases for Fedora?
Hey, folks. I'm working through the f16 QA retrospective, and one of the suggestions is: "might need improved / more Xen test cases" I wanted to reach out particularly to those who've been involved with the Xen support and testing, but also the group in general, and see if this is correct - should we have more or improved Xen test cases to ensure the Xen support is good for F17 and future releases? What we have ATM is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_Xen_Para_Virt - I note that Konrad modified this a few weeks back, and it looks better than it did previously. Is this enough, or should we enhance this test case, add more, replace it...?
