Hey and Welcome Abhishek! 

I got your sponsored. :D 

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 alpha candidate, you can run test cases which are mentioned [1] and submit your
results in the test matrix.

Note that each of the test cases[2] 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 [3] 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

You can also do update-testing, 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 viz "pending" &
"testing" . You can read much about update testing here [4]. You can also, use
fedora-easy-karma for giving out feedbacks.
