Open issues/risks

  • Determine where to retrieve latest plugin info from. Possibilities:
    • PFS2
    • New API provided by PluginCheck
    • PFS1

Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

Integrate Plugin Check with installed plugins in the Add-ons Manager.

2. Users & use cases

  • Plugin A is out of date. Vendor provides a link to an updated installer. Can download installer directly from Addons Manager.
  • Plugin B is out of date. Vendor provides a link to a page that contains information on how to update. Can get to that page from the Addons Manager.
  • Plugin C is out of date. SUMO has a support article on how to update it. Can get to that page from the Addons Manager.
  • Plugin X is up to date. User sees this and is overcome with joy.

3. Dependencies

`

4. Requirements

`

Non-goals

  • Installing and updating of all plugins via XPI hosted on AMO (long-term plan?).

Stage 2: Design

5. Functional specification

`

6. User experience design

Stage 3: Planning

7. Implementation plan

`

8. Reviews

Security review

`

Privacy review

`

Localization review

`

`

Quality Assurance review

Most (if not all) of this should be able to be automated with browser-mochitest tests and a fake PFS/PFS2 server.

Operations review

Stage 4: Development

9. Implementation
