Indeed, this is not news. But the big news is that, thanks mainly to the efforts of Fabian Vogt and Oliver Kurz, now *openQA is testing also KDE software from git*! This works by feeding the Argon (Leap based) and Krypton (Tumbleweed based) live media, which are roughly built daily, to openQA, and running a series of specific tests. Indeed, this is not news.

You can see here [an example for Argon](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/309076) and [an example for Krypton]https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/latest?test=krypton-live&arch=x86_64&flavor=Krypton-Live) (note: some links may become dead as tests are cleaned up, and will be adjusted accordingly). openQA tests both the distro-level stuff (the `console` test) and KDE specific operations (the `X11` test). In the latter case, it tests the ability to launch a terminal, running a number of programs (Kate, Kontact, and a few others) and does some very basic tests with Plasma as well.

Is it enough to test the full experience of KDE software? No, but this is a good solid foundation for more automated testing to spot functional regressions: during the openSUSE Leap 42.2 development cycle, openQA found several upstream issues in Plasma which were then communicated to the developers and promptly fixed.
