It’s time for another round of Heroes of Fedora! This time, we’re covering Fedora 24 Alpha.
As is usual with the release of a new version of Fedora, it’s time to reflect on the stats revolving around what it took to get the latest-and-greatest out the door. With the recent push of F24, the numbers are in, so without further delay, let’s check ’em out!
Updates Testing
Wow, was there a lot of contribution to the Alpha release! 1,324 testers and 2,049 comments! That’s 1,269 more testers and 1,914 more comments than Fedora 23 Alpha. Great job! Below you’ll find the stats on who did what in Bodhi.

Validation Testing
Below you’ll find the stats on validation testing as it was done throughout the Alpha release. Compared to Fedora 23 Alpha, there were 17 more testers and 385 more test reports! If that’s not proof that Fedora is growing, I don’t know what is!

| …and also 104 other reporters who created less than 3 reports each, but 124 reports combined! | |||
1 The total number of new reports (including “excess reports”). Reopened reports or reports with a changed version are not included, because it was not technically easy to retrieve those. This is one of the reasons why you shouldn’t take the numbers too seriously, but just as interesting and fun data.
2 Excess reports are those that were closed as NOTABUG, WONTFIX, WORKSFORME, CANTFIX or INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Excess reports are not necessarily a bad thing, but they make for interesting statistics. Close manual inspection is required to separate valuable excess reports from those which are less valuable.
3 This only includes reports that were created by that particular user and accepted as blockers afterwards. The user might have proposed other people’s reports as blockers, but this is not reflected in this number.
Conclusion
The numbers don’t lie, Fedora is clearly growing! Thanks to all who supported the Fedora 24 Alpha testing effort, if it wasn’t for you, Fedora 24 wouldn’t have had the level of quality that it was released with!
