re: checklist

The ISO QA site for noble (24.04) can currently be found here - https://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/450/builds

If you scroll down to find Ubuntu Studio, you'll be offered a link to a page, which currently is - https://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/450/builds/289884/testcases

Do NOTE however that [second] link will change (the page will no longer allow new tests to be entered) the moment a new 'daily' is created, as the 289884 part of the URL will alter to represent the new daily; thus it's best to enter from my first provided URL  (450 is noble daily and can be used the entire cycle; though in time we'll have another number for beta, final etc - but the daily URL will still
work)

Using that link will provide a few testcases, being

- Install (auto-resize)	
- Install (entire disk)
- Install (manual partitioning)
- Live Session
- Ubuntu Studio PipeWire Post-Install

though those items may change during the cycle too. Clicking on them will reveal details.

The ISO QA site is for reporting results of testing, and has fields for linking bugs encountered & reported as Aaron already outlined. The bug reports will get linked to QA with use of this site, allowing for better tracking.

The checklists are mostly geared for install testing, with the 'live'
test itself where you can check each application starts & operates.
For normal testing (ie. just using the product, as I'm using my current Lubuntu noble (24.04)) no reporting on iso.qa.ubuntu.com is necessary.
