This installment of the Heroes of Fedora series will focus on work done on Fedora 25 Beta release.
Hello fellow testers, and welcome back to the Heroes of Fedora – F25 Beta edition! In this post we’ll look at who-did-what during the push to F25 – Beta! Before we begin however, something has come to our attention that we need to clear up! Since Fedora 24 Alpha, we have no longer used the TC (Test Candidate) system and have switched to using nightly-test-validation to document testing on branched releases. When this change occurred early in the F24 – Alpha release cycle, the program we have used to generate test statistics was not aware of the change and some of the data it reported back for F24 – Alpha, Beta, Final and F25 – Alpha was erroneous. This has been noted and fixed, so the results from now on should be accurate. We’re sorry for this error and will make sure that this does not affect the stats into the future.
With that out of the way, let’s move on to our Heroes of Fedora F25 – Beta!

| …and also 110 other reporters who created less than 2 reports each, but 110 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
Let the numbers speak for themselves, Fedora has an active community who is involved in multiple aspects of testing! Fedora would not have the quality it does without the community it has, so thank you for your testing efforts and participation; it does not go unnoticed! See you next time around for Heroes of Fedora 25 – Final!
