The RHEL CI now defaults to setting TMT_SCRIPTS_DIR to /var/lib/tmt/scripts. This is required for package mode to image mode conversion to work in gating tests for testing Image Mode RHEL. Please note that means if your tests reference rhts-* or tmt-* scripts using an absolute path, they might fail. Please rely on $PATH when using these scripts.

Kickstart installation in AWS is live for RHEL8+. If the requests use kickstart field, they will be mostly served by AWS. If you require beaker to be used, force the beaker Testing Farm pool in your requests. (TFT-2135 https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TFT-2135)
First version of Image Mode testing in RHEL CI and Fedora CI is available using the package mode to image mode conversion. See our sanity test https://gitlab.com/testing-farm/tests/-/blob/main/testing-farm/bootc-install.fmf for an example for Fedora.
Testing Farm is now supporting installing all supported artifacts in Image Mode. Note that there are no repositories with artifacts added to the system. This Image Mode testing is not yet supported in RHEL CI.
IBM cloud s390x is now enabled for RHEL-8, RHEL-9 and RHEL-10 composes by default.
