Hello Adam,

For now running tests for the KDE Out of Box Experience would be nice.

<br>
For those of you not familiar with them, test days are online events<br>
aimed at testing a specific feature of an upcoming Fedora release. We<br>
organize the event in a ticket, provide a Wiki page with instructions,<br>
and have a page on the testdays webapp [2] for reporting results.<br>
During the event, folks can compare notes and ask for help in the<br>
Matrix chat room [3]. Anyone can request to host test days or request<br>
that the QA team help you out with organizing. Test days can be run for<br>
any feature or area of a distribution that focused testing would be<br>
useful for. We use the name &quot;test days&quot; as it&#39;s been around f=
or a<br>
while, but many events run for more than a single day, now, to allow<br>
more time for folks to test. More information on test days can be found<br>
in the wiki [4].<br>
<br>
To propose a test day, file a ticket on Pagure (for now):<br>
<a href=3D"https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/new_issue" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=
=3D"_blank">https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/new_issue</a><br>
You can look at existing issues with the test day tag [5] to get an<br>
idea how the ticket can look; please include details on what topic you<br>
want to cover, and an idea of what dates you would like to hold it. You<br>
can also look at the SOP for hosting a test day [6].<br>
<br>
If you have any questions about test days or the process, please don&#39;t<=
