[Nicholas Skaggs <nicholas.skaggs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What I've taken to calling 'cadence' testing, is the testing of the 
daily builds of isos (specifically those focused on the desktop and 
ubuntu) over the course of a non-milestone week, with the intent of 
insuring the mandatory testcases for those isos pass. I know this has 
been a difficult thing to understand, and sadly, right now the 
isotracker doesn't allow us to do this testing in a nice and easy to see 
way. We plan to fix this by allowing you to better browse history but 
for now we'll have to work-around the limitation (BTW, if anyone knows 
drupal and wishes to help land this quicker, I would be happy to help 
set you up. We can always use more developers!).

I've put together a wiki page that I will update once a day this week 
(about 1400 UTC, manually) with the targeted testcases and their status. 
The page is located here.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Cadence/Status

I hope this proves helpful to everyone, and as you can see we already 
have results for many of the testcases. We need folks who have access to 
ARM and MAC to also contribute a result for a testcase to help round us out.

As you can see, I've placed a quick summary of our progress on each of 
the isos and testcases at the top, followed by the raw results in a 
tabular format of those who have tested. Please don't panic if that raw 
list is missing some of your testing! I still see the results submitted 
from those of you who have tested server, or alt images, or another 
flavor. For brevity's sake on this page, it's filtered to only show the 
runs for the isos above.

I hope this helps and thank you for sticking with the testing on this. 
ISO testing is going to continue to be something for all of us to 
iterate upon and improve to make better. We as a community want to 
provide solid, dependable results and good feedback, while still being 
mindful of our efforts and time spent. Thanks,

Nicholas
