    If you are looking for the Daily iso's, have a look here:

    As many of you may know we have created a U+1 testing team to do a better job of reporting bugs, and generally to make things better for all during the testing cycle. To that end, we have created a wiki where a lot of information regarding testing is available. You don't have to be a team member to be able to test , testing is open to everyone regardless of your experience level. That being said, to get the most possible feedback from your bug reports, check this out, before creating a bug report:

    I shouldn't edit these things after working all night. I should get some rest first.

    Thanks Cariboo. Anyone wanting to join the U+1 team can navigate through this link:
    https://wiki.ubuntu.com/U+1/tester-wiki

    It is currently a work in progress as I have to wait for links for the .iso files .. etc..

    Anyone with any ideas, knows Moin Moin or wants to help in general then please do so. I am trying to draw up some audio/visual templates to help with unity 8 and yakkety/zesty. I would most likely put them in the tutorial section ..uhh.. more to come..

    Edit: btw .. during YY cycle there was a lot of discussion on irc about automated testing and how it was not providing expected results and some developers were expressing dismay over this. There is an advantage to manual testing (mostly which we learn about here in UDV (U+1). The q/a tracker has it's place and so does manual testing. Often an automated test cannot accurately describe a bug but a human tester can detect things that automated testers cannot.



    Regards..
