You have almost everything what you need in a very good tutorial found at this address: QATeam/ContributingTestcases/Manual - Ubuntu Wiki.
There is also a nice video screencast about how to contribute a manual testcase to Ubuntu posted on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO7DdlUSt_4. Many thanks to Nicholas Skaggs for this one :)
I will list only the things you need to know before to start:
And of course, requirements:
bzr
(runsudo apt-get install bzr
in a terminal to install it).Sources: QATeam/ContributingTestcases/Manual (last edited 2013-02-21 22:18:29 by nskaggs).
