Fx 4b4 Test Plan

Firefox 4 Beta 4 BFTs

In addition to running all the Mozmill BFT automated tests, we'll run BFTs corresponding to areas of high priority using the following BFT test run in Litmus as a guide.

• Download builds: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/4.0b4-candidates/
• Use Litmus testrun: https://litmus.mozilla.org/run_tests.cgi?test_run_id=199

Where there are no related Litmus testcases it is up to the feature owners to test their areas.

Some Notes

A big chunk of the functionality below can be grouped into tabbed browsing. Some of the items below like "Undo Window/Tab Close" are not features, but they are things which I wanted to call out individually, which should be checked in tabbed browser, but as a combination when using Tab Candy (Tab Sets) which was one of the major features that landed.
