I think we have to analyze why many people don't have keen interest to
testing

real tesing have to be done on a day to day use (apart from install
stuff).

So, IMHO, the tesing should divided in steps:

* first step: install. use the basic dvd and network, etc... only with
the basic config. If it installs: pass, if it don't->bugzilla. We are
just now on this side with 10.2

* make a live cd with just this basic software and possibly all the
hardware modules available. Testing all network and wlan is extremely
important

* make a general call on opensuse list: try to install the basis, try
the live cd and report pass/don't pass with the hardware info (very
important) - this is fast and easy, so many people is able to do

* try to install and use most usually used aps. For me it's Mozilla
and Thunderbird, then digikam. With this, I begin to be able to work
with the new install.

then go on with more apps, of course.

Once a module or an app is validated by a sufficient number of users,
slowdown any new feature on it.

you can without doubt (you, any reader here) add some important apps
