Firefox:1.5.0.8:Test Plan:Minor Major Software Update

The Test

An important feature added for 1.5.0.8 is Minor/Major Software Updates. Our priority for this release is to make sure that the minor updates work end-to-end as before. For now we can test this feature in the client using the software update test cases in Litmus using bug 357358 as reference (it has sample files and screenshots).
