-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 As per the Beta criteria survey in https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-
 qa/ticket/151 , there are no test cases to enforce the Beta release
 criteria:

 "The release must boot successfully as a virtual guest in a situation
 where the virtual host is running the same release (using Fedora's current
 preferred virtualization technology)"

 "The release must boot successfully as a virtual guest in a situation
 where the virtual host is running the previous stable Fedora release
 (using Fedora's current preferred virtualization technology)"

 "The release must boot successfully as a virtual guest in a situation
 where the virtual host is running a supported Xen implementation"

 We should create test cases to explicitly cover these criteria, especially
 the Xen one, which we do not usually test at present (the other two
 usually get covered in practice, although we don't have explicit test
 cases for them).

Comment (by rhe):

 Actually there's a
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/BootMethodsKVM kvm install
 test] in the install matrix, which just doesn't specify the release
 version for the host. So I created two tests(current release host and
 previous release host) based on the existing case:

  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_Current_KVM
  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_Previous_KVM

 For xen, there's a existing test:

  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_Xen_Para_Virt

 Will update it to satisfy the criterion.

 I don't see the Xen test anywhere in the template; it probably needs
 adding to the template too?

 Right, the test is existing, but not in the matrix yet. :)

Comment (by rhe):

 I redesigned the virtual guest tests and now it covers the whole
 installation instead of just boot methods:

  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Install_to_Current_KVM
  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Install_to_Previous_KVM

 For xen, since Fedora doesn't support it for several releases, I haven't
 figured out a convenient and official way to set up the environment.
 Anyone knows about it, feel free to modify the case:

  * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_Xen_Para_Virt

Comment:

 the KVM tests are now covered, and we have a separate ticket -
 https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/263 - for improving the Xen test
 case set. So let's close this.
