Contribute at the Fedora Test Week for Btrfs
<div><p>The Fedora Project is changing the default file system for desktop variants, including Fedora Workstation, Fedora KDE, and more, for the first time since Fedora 11. Btrfs will replace ext4 as the default filesystem in Fedora 33. The Change is code complete, and has been testable in Rawhide as the default file system since early July. The Fedora Workstation working group and QA team have organized a test week from <strong>Monday, Aug 31, 2020 </strong>through <strong>Monday, Sep 07, 2020.</strong> Refer to the <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2020-08-31_Btrfs_default" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">wiki page</a> for links to the test images you’ll need to participate. Read below for details.</p>

<h2>How does a test week work?</h2>
<p>A test week is an event where anyone can help make sure changes in Fedora work well in an upcoming release. Fedora community members often participate, and the public is welcome at these events. If you’ve never contributed before, this is a perfect way to get started.</p>
<p>To contribute, you only need to be able to do the following things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Download test materials, which include some large files</li>
<li>Read and follow directions step by step</li>
</ul>
<p>The <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2020-08-31_Btrfs_default" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">wiki page</a> for the kernel test day has a lot of good information on what and how to test. After you’ve done some testing, you can log your results in the test day <a href="https://testdays.fedorainfracloud.org/events/92" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">web application</a>. If you’re available on or around the day of the event, please do some testing and report your results.</p>
<p>Happy testing, and we hope to see you during the test week!</p>
