#87: Expand desktop release criteria and validation ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: jlaska | Owner: adamwill Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 14 Component: Wiki | Version: Keywords: retrospective | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ = problem =
[http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test Desktop test results] were often not available for non-GNOME desktops. This leaves a large exposure come release day (for Alpha, Beta or Final).
= analysis =
The desktop release criteria are specific to GNOME. As a result, there is no incentive to finding bugs in XFCE, LXDE or KDE.
= enhancement recommendation =
This might be too much for once ticket. Feel free to split this out into more if needed.
Recommend looking for opportunities to improve communication between teams and increasing non-GNOME desktop testing leading up to milestones. * The goal is to extend the desktop validation testing introduced in Fedora 13 to cover the main non-default desktops: KDE, Xfce and LXDE. * Update appropriate desktop validation content as needed (see [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Desktop_validation_testing desktop validation testing])

I'm looking after this. I'll probably be filing separate tickets for various processes related to this (already we have quite a lot of suggestions for criteria modifications from the other desktop teams).

Comment:
okay, so I didn't track this very well, but we've implemented a process for doing lxde/kde/xfce validation now and it worked fine for Alpha and Beta.
