We are at liberty to test the daily images at any time once they are being built. There isn't a regulated schedule to test these and are generally done as needed to test a specific change or fix. These are also used to test the current image "just because". The QA testing images _are_ scheduled however and rather critical. While the daily images are available at any time and are not required by process/procedure to be tested, the QA testing images _are_ required to be tested and specific types of tests. These are indicated on the website and are consistent for each testing period. Generally, I believe you can view the testing schedule to align with availability of Alpha, Beta, and RC images. I will stress again, it is imperative to validate the QA testing images. It is possible that the next image will not be available if a previous image hasn't been completely tested. Once a QA image is available we have a couple of days to validate the image. I view the division of QA vs. daily images further by purpose. The QA image are testing to validate the ISO, i.e. does the ISO burn onto the disc, does it install properly, does the OS boot and run. The daily images are for verifying that the applications run correctly or that system settings are working as expected. The QA images can be used to test system settings or applications are working properly together, but generally do not suit this purpose because of their limited availability. I hope this helps you begin to understand some of the testing. Please expect the first few alpha images to be a bit quirky due to the shift to XFCE and we will be specifically testing the early releases for these issues. Later in the cycle we may be looking/testing for other areas, e.g. making sure that new applications are in the proper position in the menu, or that menu changes are correct. Cheers, ScottL
