1) FC2 test 1 is a test release - so do not trade it as stable! Only use
it if you want to support the development process and if you can life
with daily trouble

2) If 1) is ok, then edit /etc/yum.conf and point the sources to the
test 1 repository (or even development/rawhide). Having the correct
sources configured a "yum update && yum upgrade" will do its job.
