You can start to test updates in [http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/] for
Fedora 32 and Fedora 33.
Update testing is where a tester tests a package and gives out a +1
Karma for PASS and -1 Karma for FAIL. You can go to
bodhi.fedoraproject.org where you can sort the packages with Fedora
Releases and tags viz "pending" & "testing". You can read much about
update testing here [1]. You can also use the RPM package fedora-easy-
karma for giving out feedbacks from the command line for the installed
packages (enable the updates-testing repository!).

Yes, I agree this is very useful. However, for the start, I recommend you only focus on things that you really do use on Linux to see how that works and then you can explore more.

 

Running release validation tests [2] [3] on Rawhide could be also
useful.

Validation testing is where I would recommend to start completely, because we have nice test cases written step by step, so first you will be guided and helped through things and second, you will learn a lot about Linux itself.

If I could be of any help to you - explanations, help, guidance ...  feel free to drop a line.
