Discussion Items
- [Florin] Main focus on Beta coverage (limited testing time due to holidays). E10S regression is still ongoing but has lower priority than Beta 35.
- [Florin] Should we run some Loop Smoke/Regression tests for Beta 35?
- [ashughes] if there are higher priority areas it can be put off for now - exploratory testing and fix verification for Loop is more valuable at this point

ESR (Fx 31.3)
- Bug # 1072382 - Unable to load GMail, "Error code: ssl_error_inappropriate_fallback_alert" displayed
- developer added some code that will downgrade the TLS version which will make reproducing the original issue a lot easier
Security
- got the list of the telemetry probes that the security team would like to monitor (highest risk)
- medusa is only available on the nightly channel
- need to create a alias mailing list that the alerts will be emailed to
- going back and forth with the metrics team to see if we can get a security dashboard for Aurora/BETA (Medusa is only implemented on Nightly and there's no plans to add it into aurora/beta)
Automation (whimboo)
- General
- Firefox Automation report – week 41/42 2014: http://www.hskupin.info/2014/12/17/firefox-automation-report-week-41-42-2014/
- Barbara has started to work on the testdaybot
- Mozmill
- Code got updated to latest mozbase packages (bug 1111682), and support for parent manifest files (bug 1056045)
- 9 bugs remaining for Mozmill 2.1 release (bug 970594)
- Closed already 30 bugs as wontfix - there are 100 bugs remaining in the mozmill component on bugzilla
- Broken l10n tests have been fixed and are working again
- Tests
- Good progress on refactoring restart tests into single files, already landed on default and aurora some of them
- Backported 2 libraries and closed
- in-content prefs patch is in final state for reviews, this will unblock search lib refactoring
Stability
- Android L had crash reporter not work until now, will ship 34.0.1 for it, patch has landed
- Beta 3 has 75% of crashes being on startup in 3 gfx-related signatures, a build2 of b4 was done with a backout of the gfx blocklist patch that is suspect of regressing this.
- Some issues yesterday with the Socorro HBase storage (which is being phased out soon), making for slightly low volume of crashes in current reports, backfill later today should fix that.
