I want have a slot for testing spacewalk client tools.
I will prepare preinstalled spacewalk server and people will have user access to it. They will try connect there, download some pkgs, try some spacewalk features.
basic test plan would be like: 1. add repo from spacewalk.redhat.com 2. connect to http:// 3. visit webUI at http:// and click to remote command/monitoring/etc 4. see your own machine if everything is done
I know that spacewalk is not part of fedora but if I can use same slot it would be wonderful. Or Some kind of non fedora testday or smth like that. Is it possible? Spacewalk devels and qa would appreciate that.

Hi Petr!
I've had a discussion recently with Brandon Perkins around possible community uptake on spacewalk testing. Hosting a spacewalk test day seems like a great idea! We've used Fedora test day slots for upstream project events in the past, so I don't see issue with doing so here. Unfortunately, I'm not up to speed on the technical aspects of spacewalk testing. The Fedora QA team can assist with marketing/communication for the event and with massaging wiki content.
I encourage you to visit the guidelines for preparing and hosting a successful test day - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management.
If you require a test server for testers, I recommend filing a infrastructure "Request for resources" - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/RFR.
I'll leave this ticket open to track the history of the idea. But in summary, this sounds like a great idea. Fedora QA can assist with getting the word out, general test day guidance, and massaging wiki content. You'll need to prepare test cases and provide instructions for testers by way of a wiki page.
Any updates on the space walk client tools event? The fedora 12 test day calendar is open now, as is dates after the release of Fedora 12. This might be an opportune time to schedule the event.
Changing milestone to 'Fedora 13'
Greetings! We are currently organizing the Fedora 13 test day schedule. Is there any interest in hosting a SpaceWalk event during the Fedora 13 release?
Greetings Petr, I'm going to close this ticket as there has been no recent activity. If there is still interest in a SpaceWalk test day, please feel free to re-open this ticket. As always, you can find additional information on hosting a test day https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management
