.. Fedora QA Kiwi TCMS Usage documentation master file, created by sphinx-quickstart on Fri Mar 4 10:11:51 2022. You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least contain the root `toctree` directive. Fedora QA's Kiwi TCMS instance documentation! ===================================================== .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :caption: Contents: Indices and tables ================== * :ref:`genindex` * :ref:`modindex` * :ref:`search` * :ref:`TerminologyUsed` * :ref:`adding-test-run` .. _list discussion: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/NEED_TO_COMPLETE_THIS Introduction ============ There have been a few discussions in the past about whether we should be using a more formal TCMS in Fedora and this is the latest attempt to figure out whether it's worth changing how we're storing test cases and results. The current iteration of this `list discussion`_ **REMEMBER TO FIX THIS LINK ONCE LIVE** `Kiwi TCMS `_ is an open source (GPL2) test case management system (TCMS). `Kiwi's source is available on GitHub `_. .. _KiwiLoginDetails: Logins and Access ----------------- This is meant as a demo and as such, it is missing features that would be implemented if we choose to go forward and use Kiwi as our production TCMS. One of those missing features is FAS integration so logins are handled by a local user database and accounts are created manually. If you want access to the demo instance, check the `list discussion`_ for details on how to request an account. .. _TerminologyUsed: Terminology Used ---------------- For the sake of making sure we're all on pretty much the same page, let's get some terminology and definitions out of the way. Much of the terminology is going to be based on what Kiwi uses since that is the center of this particular discussion. .. _KiwiTestCase: TestCase A set of actions performed on a target for the purpose of testing a single specific item. .. _KiwiTestPlan: TestPlan A group of TestCases which each test separate parts of a single feature. .. _KiwiTestRun: TestRun An artifact produced when a user runs through 1 or more test cases in a test plan. Generally, only the most recent recent test run from a user for a given build and test plan are shown in metrics. .. _KiwiVersion: Version In this context, a version is roughly a single Fedora release (36, etc.). .. _KiwiProduct: Product A product in Kiwi roughly corresponds to a deliverable. The way that our demo instance is configured, every product and image produced in a compose is considered to be a product. .. _KiwiBuild: Build A build rougly corresponds to a deliverable within a Fedora compose (e.g, Fedora-36-20220307.n.0 Desktop, Fedora 35 RC 1.1 Server) How to use Kiwi =============== .. _adding-test-run: Adding test run to kiwi ----------------------- 1.
