Focus areas

The following list comprises focus items and areas which will be incorporated in testing:

  • ensure old functionality of the awesomebar remains unchanged
  • performance issues - old and new hardware
  • proper display on all platforms and using OS themes- equal height for results, readability, highlighted items, proper layout
  • proper display with themes/location bar related add-ons
  • special characters rendering
  • system color and height modification
  • display with browser resizing
  • different types of results: switch to tab, bookmark tags, search keywords

test strategy

To elaborate on the following items:

  • create and run manual test cases (moztrap)
  • test creation should take into account focus areas
    • run tests on all supported platforms
    • consider OS themes and Firefox popular themes while testing
  • do regular triage related to the location bar results (Firefox Location bar component)
  • organize a Firefox location bar testday after all feature changes will have landed
