Firefox 3.5rc3 Test Plan
Description of Release
We are addressing several bugs in video playback, tab drag and drop, and other miscellaneous critical bugs. This release candidate will be available through the all-beta download page, and it will be offered in the form of software updates to our beta users on 3.5x.
Specific Plan for RC3
We are going to run smoketests, l10n spot checks', updates cehcks and we are going to verify the bugs that landed for this release. In addition we are going to run sections of the full functional tests that are touched by the fixed that landed. These include tabbed browsing (including drag&drop) and video playback controls.
Given that we took the fix for bug 499169 we are having someone check if the browser loads the URLs where people were reporting crashes. This is on-going as of 6/24 morning PDT.
