Overview
Permissions is a feature which allows webextensions to have certain special powers. The permissions key specified in the manifest.json will grant special powers for your extension. This key is an array of strings, and each string is a request for a permission.
If you request permissions using this key, then the browser may inform the user at install time that the extension is requesting certain privileges, and ask them to confirm that they are happy to grant these privileges. The browser may also allow the user to inspect an extension's privileges after installation.
- As part of this feature, the optional permissions are used when they are needed for optional features in your extension.
Purpose
This document purports to detail the test approach to Webextension Permissions and Optional permissions including Entry/Exit criteria, Scope for testing, links to testcases 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?
- Installation flow from AMO
- Installation flow from Third-party websites
- Add-on updates
- Webextensions have access to the permissions requested
what's out of scope?
- Security testing
- Performance 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 | AMO public pages | To verify that permissions are correctly displayed | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-2 | Installing from AMO | To verify that the permissions flow is fully respected | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-3 | Installing from local files | To verify that the permissions flow is fully respected | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-4 | Installing from thirdparty | To verify that the permissions flow is fully respected | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
| TO-5 | Add-on updates | To verify that the permissions flow is fully respected | Manual | Add-ons QA Team |
