Highlights

This is a place for people to put announcements or to describe activities that they'd like to highlight. It's not the responsibility of the MC to find things to put here.

In-Depth Project Discussion

Pick one project/presenter per week who will give a detail presentation on their project.

The Overview

Progress, notes, problems, and other statuses about current projects. Add any new projects to this template!

AutoPhone/Noah's Ark

Bughunter

Bugzilla

Eideticker

Firebug Testing

Jetperf

Marionette

Mobile Automation

  • BIG FREAKIN NEWS: sut_tools is updated with modern devicemanager and many patches. This gets us 90% of the way towards changes needed to that toolchain to run on the panda boards
  • Rooting phones [bc].
    • Android 2.3.3, 2.3.6 and possibly Android <= 2.3.6 is simple with zergRush which gives a root adb shell. Once we have adb root access we can easily remount /system as rw. We only need to copy sh to su and give su 06755 permissions. Busybox and Superuser.apk are not required.
    • Android 4.0.4 does have privilege escalation vulnerabilities but I have not found an example.
    • Rooting phones without exploits will require unlocked boot loaders and custom recovery mode update.zip.

Mobile Evangelism Site-Scraping Tool

Mochitest

MozBase

  • mozdevice now throws exceptions on failure instead of values (i.e. None, 1, [])

Mozmill

MozTrap

  • [camd] making progress on the perf issue, but kinda complex, and I'm ramping up on the code base. So it may take 1 more week to fix.

New Graphserver (Datazilla)

  • [jeads] Working on new developer UI
  • [jeads] Waiting for bug 792912

Open Web Apps

  • A frost came over the opened apps and now they are closed again!

Peptest

Powerball

Pulse

Signal From Noise

Speedtests

Systems

  • Mozmill Dashboard Puppet scripts are done, ready to deploy
  • Spade Puppet scripts nearly done, dependencies are *fun*
  • Starting on Eideticker puppet scripts

Talos

Sheriffing & Trees

Treestatus

Tinderboxpushlog

War on Orange

Web QA

Automation Development

  • A lot of work happened for the WebRTC tests which caused us a bit of headaches due to blockers and API changes.
