# Fedora Quality Assurance Meeting
# Date: 2011-01-10
# Time: 16:00 UTC (11:00 EST, 17:00 CET) [1]
# Location: #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net

Greetings folks,

This is a reminder that we have a QA meeting scheduled every Monday at
16:00UTC.  If you are unable to make the meeting, but would like to see
an issue discussed, feel free to respond to the agenda with discussion
topics.  If no meeting topics have been proposed, we may choose to
cancel the meeting.

= Proposed agenda =

1. Update on critpath test definition (ticket#154)
     2. Latest and greatest on autoqa-0.4.4

NOTE: I included the above 2 topics b/c I suspect they are of general
interest to all testers.

Thanks,
James

2011-01-10 @ 16:00UTC - Fedora QA meeting - recap

[James Laska]

As always, IRC transcript and meeting minutes are available on the wiki
at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20110110

Topic: Previous meeting follow-up
===========================================
     1. Bodhi feedback patch from fcami (see infrastructure ticket#701) 
              * still pending review
     2. Adamw and Hurry did some f15 test day rescheduling (adjusted
        Xorg dates and added preupgrade) --
        https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Fedora_15_test_days

Topic: Latest and greatest on autoqa-0.4.4
===========================================
     1. mkrizek's patch "Add support for a staging server" has been
        pushed to master (https://fedorahosted.org/autoqa/ticket/241)
     2. my patch "Load config files from current directory by default"
        has been pushed to master
        (https://fedorahosted.org/autoqa/ticket/253)
     3. clumens asked for merging his clumens branch onto master (tests:
        anaconda_storage, compose_tree, anaconda_checkbot, watcher:
        git-post-receive)
     4. jlaska found out that autoqa package will probably need to add
        autotest as its dependency (due to fas.conf changes)
     5. A few bugfixes found its way into master branch. Kudos to
        jskladan for finding them out (see
        https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/autoqa-devel/2011-January/001485.html) 
     6. jskladan posted his "New Koji Watcher" patch to autoqa-devel,
        ready for review
        (https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/autoqa-devel/2011-January/001485.html) 
     7. Documentation has been improved a little to accommodate the new
        changes (see
        https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/autoqa-devel/2011-January/001494.html)
     8. I just pushed a 'use self.__class__ in super() calls' patch that
        should simplify a little our test template (see
        https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/autoqa-devel/2011-January/001494.html)

Topic:Update on critpath test definition (ticket#154)
===========================================
     1. Current pages are pretty much good to go
     2. Debating whether to require consistent page names for test
        cases.  Included to not require anything more than the current
        prefix ("QA:Testcase_")
     3. Next steps ... 
             1. migrating some more test cases to the new format at
                present
             2. still need to move the pages into 'production'
             3. announce to the lists
             4. solicit test creation
             5. talk to tools maintainers (f-e-k and bodhi)

Topic: OpenSUSE project - os-autoinst

     1. bmwiedemann, openqa maintainer, stopped by to talk about his
        installation automation project
     2. Project home - http://openqa.opensuse.org
     3. Sample automated results available at -
