Re: Fwd: ISO Testing Screencast

 

Indeed! What I was trying to point out is that we should NOT promote one specific procedure to follow, eg; only use test drive w/virtual box.

I tend to focus mostly on installer bugs and often find that I overlook others like this:

IMHO it's more a matter of recruiting new testers than training the testers. Different testers will focus on different things - because we're all different ;^)

Also, though VirtualBox is quite nice, using Qemu would allow testing of
the PPC architecture, too.
At some point Ubuntu, and thus Lubuntu, will probably offer ARM
officially, so we should try to be prepared.
