From MozillaWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

We will be offering major software updates to current 1.5.0.9 users. This will give them the option to do a major update to 2.0.0.1.

This page will track the testing around major software updates.

Tests

We have an environment setup to test major software updates going from 1509->2001 on the usual test channel. You can try it out in an exploratory way for now. You can skim through the "Major/Eula Software Updates" in the Revised Software Update Test Suite for reference.

Results

We are testing major software updates on all platforms. Detailed results to follow. If you feel inclined to explore, find out if this update leaves trails in the registry and directory structure in Windows.

Windows

Vista

Some of the issues we have found is that Vista will not major-upgrade if you are not running as admin. We have to test using the 2001 uninstaller after it has been upgraded from 1.5.0.9. We also need to test whether all preferences are maintained, including parental controls.
