Brendan, welcome to ubuntu quality! I'm happy you've decided to jump in
already and test out XMir. We're actually going to be planning a special
call for testing around XMir very soon, so stay tuned to help out! Don't
forget we're social: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam#Social_Networks.
So, first things first, are you running a development version of ubuntu?
If not, install one via a vm or on real hardware. It will let you
contribute tests and results easily.
You can check out more information about contributing testcases on this
wiki page. There are walkthroughs and video guides for contributing both
manual and automated testcases. We welcome your contributions to both!
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases
On the test results side, we have a couple trackers we utilize. One is
for images, called the iso tracker, and the other covers applications,
called the packages tracker. You can submit results to these trackers at
any time. Both feature a daily milestone with tests and packages or
images to test. In addition, every 2 weeks roughly during the cycle we
as a team make it a point to submit test results to these trackers (we
call this cadence testing). Obviously not everyone can test everyday, so
we encourage you to participate during these weeks. You can learn more
about contributing an iso or packages test result here:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cadence%20Testing%20Walkthrough
If reading isn't your preferred way to learn, we have videos as well:

Welcome to the team, and don't hesitate to ask questions. I look forward
to working with you!

I'm Brendan. I want to join the Ubuntu QATeam because I'm a geek who really
likes the Ubuntu OS. I want to be on the QATeam to help test pre-release
stuff for Ubuntu, also to get involved. I started testing XMir yesterday. So
far I have noticed a bug within the display server.
