Hello jakfrost!

Welcome to Fedora QA, I have sponsored your QA group request.

You can start off by testing updates in <
http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/> for Fedora 31, Fedora 32, and Fedora
33 (Rawhide).  Update testing is where a tester tests a package and
gives out a +1 Karma for PASS and -1 Karma for FAIL. You can go to
bodhi.fedoraproject.org where you can sort the packages with Fedora
Releases and tags with "pending" & "testing". You can read much about
update testing here [1]. You can also use the command fedora-easy-
karma 
from your terminal for giving out feedbacks.

You can start with  Release Validation testing. In Release Validation
all you need to do is to check the nightly/TC/RC against certain
criteria. For example, let's take the latest compose (Fedora 33 Rawhide
20200804.n.0), you can run the test cases which are mentioned here [2]
and submit your results in the test matrix.

Note that each of the test cases[3] will have "How to test" section
which will have the steps (to be executed sequentially) and if the
results match with the expected results you can mark it as pass by
editing the wiki page {{result|PASS|<fas_username>}}. Always make sure
to check for "Associated release criterion" which can be found on the
top of test case page, if your test case fails you can mark it fail by
editing the wiki page {{result|FAIL|<fas_username>}} and file a bug at
RHBZ [4] under Fedora.


You can always find the ‘current’ validation pages using these
addresses:

<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test>
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test>
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test>
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Server_Test>
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Cloud_Test>


Keep an eye to Fedora Test Days, they will be announced here and
usually in the Community Blog or on the Magazine. They are events
useful to test some new feature or big change.


For Automation, you can start looking at Open QA <
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenQA>.
