I have installed leap 15.4a to a virtual machine. All looks superficially normal. I would offer to participate in any testing. Excuse my ignorance of the process.
Is there a test plan/test matrix that is being run through. I would offer to run some pieces and report results. Where does one find the test plan?
Where do you report sucesses or anomalies? Where do you see progess working through any test plan?
OR —
Is the process just to use system as much as possible and report gliches/bugs as you stumble across them during normal course of work? If so where to report same?
thanks. Have some spare time to devote to this if it would help things.

Yes, I have 15.4 installed in a VM. Actually, in two VMs, one using legacy booting and the other using UEFI booting.
As far as I know, the main thing to do is try stuff and report bugs if you find any problems.

Check the download site from time to time. If there is a newer install iso, then it is time to update your installation. I normally use “zypper dup” for updating, until the final release. After that, I switch to normal update methods.
From leap 15.4a, would you only report on broken things that don’t work as they did or do you also comment on items you dislike? Of couse, the former are more important than the latter to the developers.

Since 15.4 is mostly going to be a continuation and update of 15.3, I’m not looking much beyond bugs.
If there are new features that you really want to see, it would be better to comment about that on Tumbleweed. Roughly speaking, everything new starts on Tumbleweed, then filters down to Leap.
