== proventesters ==
Jlaska asked the group what tasks remain in order to move forward on
defining the ''proventesters'' group and workflow.
* Adam noted that Jkeating may be working several tasks on this
front.
* Jlaska directed those interested in defining providetesters, to
provide feedback to maxamillion's
[http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-March/088980.html email].
== Privilege Escalation test ==
Adamw reminded the group that we've not yet defined test cases to
validate the recently approved [[Privilege_escalation_policy]].
* Adamw felt the first step is to come up with the script to
identify privesc-relevant packages.
* Kparal asked whether these would be automated tests, or tests
more like the desktop validation plan. Discussion followed on
the appropriate place to automate these
* The group discussed candidate packages to inspect for polkit
changes, including polkit configs, setuid binaries, certain
d-bus config files, consolehelper files and pam configs.
* Adam took action to discuss a privileged package detection
script with wwoods
== Open discussion - <Your topic here> ==
=== Update Policy Proposals ===
Kparal clarified that current package update proposals require that
deps/conflicts tests occur whenever a package enters ''updates''
'''and''' ''updates-testing''. Kparal also discussed concerns around
AutoQA being a bottleneck for packages.
=== AutoQA packaging ===
Adamw asked how AutoQA packaging was progressing.
* Jlaska noted that packaging wasn't moving, and that a FAD is
being planned to help work down the list of java %buildrequires.
More information will be sent to
[mailto:java-devel at lists.fedoraproject.org] later in the week.
