Overview
There are two aspects to extensions running in private browsing tabs: user choice, and developer preference.
- User Choice: the user should be able to determine which, if any, extensions should be able to run within private browsing tabs.
- Developer Preference: the developer should be able to specify if their extension can or cannot be run in private browsing tabs.
Mozilla and independent research strongly support the idea that user control of extensions in private browsing is an important part of protecting users online.
Purpose
This document purports to detail the test approach for the improvements of Local Storage API and includes Entry/Exit criteria, Scope for testing, links to test cases etc
Entry Criteria
- QA has access to all the PRDs, mocks and related documents
- The feature has landed on Nightly
- AMO parts has landed on dev
Exit Criteria
- All the bugs against the feature have been triaged
- All the P1/P2 bugs have been fixed
- All the resolved bugs have been verified by QA
- The find/fixed rate is going down over a predefined period of time
Acceptance Criteria
This section broadly outlines when the product is ready to ship
- QA has signed off
- All the required Telemetry is in place
- All info is localized at least for a pre-defined set of locales
- All the necessary PR/blogposts have been sent out
Scope
This section describes what parts of the feature will be tested and what parts won't be.
what's in scope?
- The behavior is as expected for the extensions in the Private Browsing.
what's out of scope?
- Security testing

Test Strategy
Test Objectives
This section details the progression test objectives that will be covered. Please note that this is at a high level. For large projects, a suite of test cases would be created which would reference directly back to this master. This could be documented in bullet form or in a table similar to the one below.
| Ref | Function | Test Objective | Test Type | Owners |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TO-1 | Installing from AMO | To verify that the extension uses the API correctly | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-2 | Installing from local files | To verify that the extension uses the API correctly | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-3 | Add-on updates | To verify that the extension uses the API correctly | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-4 | Sideloading | To verify that the extension uses the API correctly | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
Builds
This section should contain links for builds with the feature -
