Mozilla QA Community:WinVista Community Test Day
Welcome to the Firefox 2.0.0.2pre on Windows Vista Community Test Day!!
Thank you for participating in this test day. The success of Firefox and Thunderbird is heavily dependent on community members like you. We appreciate your support!!
When you are done, please send feedback to [1]. We are very interested to hear about how the test day went, any overall thoughts about Firefox 2.0.0.2pre. We are also looking for ways to get more people involved, so any ideas or suggestions on how to make future events more interesting and fun are welcome too! :-)
If you decide to test on your own, please try to make note of any bugs you have looked at, any testcases you have run, and any other info about your testing. When you're done, please email us at [2] with your results.
If you discover a bug or regression that you feel is critical, please let us know on the #testday IRC channel ASAP!
What build should I test?
We will be testing the following:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk
The reason we will be testing the trunk is because we want to verify Win Vista functionality first before landing on the 2.0.0.2 branch.
Which version of Win Vista should I be using?
Please use the RTM version of Vista.
What will we be testing?
As noted above, we need to test specific fixes that have been checked in related to the OS integration piece on Win Vista. More information will be posted here soon.
What about Thunderbird on Win Vista?
Thunderbird 2 will be coming along soon, and we don't have all the Vista support in yet, so testing for the product specific to Win Vista will come along later.

How do I file bugs?
First of all, let one of the moderators know so they can check if it is already a known problem. Then they can guide you to either provide more details, update an existing bug or file a new bug. If filing a new bug, please do a quick check to see if the bug already exists. This can easily be done by searching for the error message, window name, or some over identifing feature of the bug.
How do I send feedback?
Please use the [3] to send feedback about how the testday went, any overall thoughts about Firefox 1.5.0.10/Firefox 2.0.0.2, and roll up of issues found and bugs filed. We really appreciate your help today and your feedback is very valuable.
