Hello everyone,
I gave a shot at running a verification test. I was looking at 
Fedora_26_Branched_20170513.n.0 installation 

That's correct. There's a new page since yesterday:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
Once we start getting Beta RCs (release candidates), which will be hopefully 
soon, that link will point to those.
 
Should I be testing the milestones labeled as Final in the nightly builds?

All of them are useful. For Beta release, those marked with Alpha and Beta have 
to pass. For Final release, Alpha + Beta + Final have to pass.
 
I hope I did this the right way. Here is what I did.
Went to Fedora_26_Branched_20170513.n.0 installation, Image sanity, and chose 
the repoclosure test case. Followed the procedures and got the results below:
Added myrepo repo from /media
Reading in repository metadata - please wait....
Checking Dependencies
Repos looked at: 1
   myrepo
Num Packages in Repos: 2836
package: python-smbios-2.3.0-4.fc26.x86_64 from myrepo
  unresolved deps: 
     python-ctypes
Which shows one unresolved dependency. If I am correct this would qualify as a 
automatic blocker for the final release and I should submit a bug report and 
update the test results page to show failed?

Yes, please do that. It should be an automatic blocker, you're correct, but 
since you're new, it's better if you use 
https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug to propose the blocker, 
and we'll check whether we can reproduce it and approve it if we can.
 
I apologize I am just trying to familiarize myself with the layout and how 
things are done. So this test labeled as final for this particular build should 
have this issue resolved before it gets integrated into the main Fedora 26 
build?

It means we can release F26 Alpha/Beta with this problem, but not F26 Final 
(the final image that gets then announced to our users).
 
I am just trying to understand this process. Once I am able to edit the 
appropriate pages and sections I will post my findings on this test and submit 
the bug report. If I did this wrong and missed a few steps could someone please 
point me in the right direction.
Thank you for your patience and help.
Ryan

Thanks a lot for your help!
