Comment (by rhe):

 I further updated the
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Rhe/Draft2#Test_Matrix matrix], and
 I'm not sure if the following tests can be removed or not:

  * [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_efidisk.img
 QA:Testcase_Boot_Methods_efidisk.img]

 Reason: Not commonly used and require special device to support it.

  * [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/PartitioningNoSwap
 QA/TestCases/PartitioningNoSwap]

 Reason: I don't think No Swap should be separated as a test.

  * [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/KickstartKsFilePathKsCfg
 QA/TestCases/KickstartKsFilePathKsCfg]

 Reason: Is it a usual way to load kickstart file? I seldom use this way.

  *
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_low_/boot_disk_space_to_install
 QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_low_/boot_disk_space_to_install]

 Reason:
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_from_older_release
 QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_from_older_release] is already the case of low
 /boot disk space. And for upgrading from F13, 500M /boot is enough for
 preupgrading.

 What do you think? Please feel free to add comments and tell me if there
 are other tests in the removing list.
