#490 [Onboarding Series] QA: Release validation testing
Closed: declined 4 years ago by riecatnor. Opened 7 years ago by jflory7.

= Badge Metadata =

  • Name: Validation Robot {I,II,III}
  • Description: You completed your {first,fifth,twenty-fifth} release validation test!

= Badge background =

  1. Activities badge awarded for: Completing [https://fedoramagazine.org/release-validation-testing-fedora/ release validation tests] and submitting results
  2. Who does this: Members of the Fedora QA team or interested volunteers who are becoming more involved with QA
  3. Why do this: Helps run targeted test cases on various hardware, machines, and other platforms to ensure Fedora runs well in an upcoming release
  4. When do this: I believe every release during the alpha / beta phases.
  5. How do they do them: Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but test cases are run manually, results uploaded manually, so the badge would be awarded manually.

= Artwork concepts =

  1. '''Validation Robot''': My name suggestion above was a suggestion, but I was thinking since test cases are well-defined ordered lists of tasks to run, some kind of methodical / robotic visualization would make sense. This could recycle artwork from the Robotics SIG badge, or we could try making a robo-panda/badger… if someone wanted a challenge…
  2. Gears/sprockets: Series of gears and sprockets surrounding the number of test cases successfully completed

Setting artwork status as proposed, CCing some members of the Design Team for review. :) I like the looks of it so far!

Hiya! Great start :) can you please try a version without the gears? Make the panda-bot larger and center him. It would be cool if he had an angular face- so instead of a regular panda head on a robot body, it looks like a panda robot head! Also I think the lettering will be more effective if you use a dark outline on the lettering and make the inside white like this badge: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/working-a-beat-beat-writer-ii

Hullo! Thanks for continuing to work on this ticket :)

I think this badge is getting a little all over the place and I am not sure it is focused enough on the release validation testing. I really like the idea of using a panda head, but making it robotic... Also lets separate the two ideas you have going here. Make one badge, sorta similar to the idea of this one: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/what-goes-around-comes-around-karma-iii with one big gear in the foreground and a bunch of interlocking gears in the background. The other badge could be the Robot, lets make the robot bigger and center him.. maybe even crop him. Try making a panda robot head :)

Also the numbering for this badge (for both ideas) should have a dark stroke, and a white outline.

Looking forward to what you come up with!

@a2batic, this looks really sweet! My only thought is to make the white of the number a bit bigger.. like the text on this one: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/long-life-to-pagure-pagure-v

Also, we need two more, one with the number 5 and one with the number 25 :)

@a2batic Nice work on the design. This badge seems almost done. Do you think you can work on the edits @riecatnor suggested?

@a2batic, checking in on this badge artwork.. any progress?

@a2batic hmmmm I think my instructions may not have been clear. The numbering doesn't need to be larger, it needs to have more chunkiness. Does that make sense? The overall composition of the last version was stronger than this new one. Go back to the last version and add more umph onto the text at the size it is.. look at this badge for reference: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/working-a-beat-beat-writer-iv I would suggest you import that text in to your badge artwork, and play with the colors! feel free to ask questions if this doesnt make sense :)

Hi @a2batic this looks so much better! Love the color and the background. One last step would be to make outline the same thickness on everything - I'm thinking same as the larger gear.
Thanks!
