MozillaQualityAssurance:bug 396052 test plan
This is a test plan for bug 396052. It is Windows-only. It needs to be added to Litmus.
Basic tests
- Install the application in the default location
- Run the application.
- Make this install of Firefox your default browser, if it isn't already
- Without closing, run it again (this tests the automatic remoting code). Make sure a new window opens
- Quit Firefox
- Start -> Run and enter "http://www.google.com"; verify that Firefox launches and opens a browser window at Google
- Without closing, choose Start -> Run again and enter "http://www.yahoo.com"; make sure Firefox opens a new tab to Yahoo
Install-Directory Tests
Currently the installer does not support installing to a non-native directory. You have to use the ZIP build to run these tests. This will hopefully be fixed before Firefox 3.
Typing Thai characters into a text box may be difficult. You can use the Character map to copy/paste Thai characters, or you can try to copy-paste from this wikipage: กขฃคฅงจ
- Unzip the ZIP build of Firefox into C:\Program Files\กขฃคฅงจ
- Run the build by double-clicking in the file manager
- When it asks you to make it your default browser, choose "Yes"
- Without closing, run the build again by double-clicking in the file manager; verify that a new window opens
- Quit Firefox
- Start -> Run and enter "http://www.google.com"; verify that Firefox launches and opens a new window at Google
- Without closing, choose Start -> Run again and enter "http://www.yahoo.com"; verify Firefox opens a new tab to Yahoo
EDIT: Using the windows included zip util, it requests a password for each file being extracted if using thai characters as the extract directory. To avoid this, extract to the default directory and just move the files to a directory with thai characters using the drag and drop method. Anthony Hughes (:ashughes)
Local File Tests
In notepad, create a document. Save it in "My Documents" with a name กขฃคฅงจ.html
- Make sure Firefox is not running
- In explorer, double-click ThaiCharacters.html; verify that Firefox launches and displays the document.
- Without closing, double-click ThaiCharacters.html again; verify that Firefox opens a new tab with the same document.
Results (ashughes)
Version: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2007123110 Minefield/3.0b3pre Build ID: 2007123110 Results:
- Basic Tests: All PASS
- Install Directory Tests: FAIL on second test, remaining tests not run
- Local File Tests: Possible PASS using Default Install Directory
- Note1:
- On the first test, I could not extract to the thai-characters (TC) directory
without being prompted for a password. I had to extract to a default directory then transfer the files over to the TC directory.
- When running the second test, I get a "application.ini not found" error.
- Note2:
- When running the Local File Tests using the instance of Minefield that was
installed using the exe installer to the default directory, I received error pages, but the pages did attempt to load properly.
- The first opening of a TC.html file resulted in an error page opening in
Minefield
- The second opening of a TC.html file resulted in an error page opening in a
new tab
- In both instances, the location bar URL read
"file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mozilla/My%20Documents/%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F.html"
- In both instances, the page error read "Firefox can't find the file at
/C:/Documents and Settings/mozilla/My Documents/???????.html."
