Friday's Notes

[full meeting minutes]

Our Automation Env

• remove the blocker dependency, get Se2 running
• finding a project that we can try out BrowserMob with, and do a trial run
• Need a real strategy for the environments that we need to support
  • we should be using Webtrends+anticipated users’ platforms (we want to support other platforms for conversion)
• Grid 2 is again a dependency/blocker
• Nightly, Aurora, Beta, RC FF
  • need to explore an automated way to upgrade Nightly & Aurora
  • doing this cleanly would be a nice contribution to the community
  • Ensure Se supports Nightly & Aurora envs
• Latest Chrome, Safari (limited/non-existent Selenium support at present), Opera (you’re welcome Esteban)
• Linux, OSX, Win XP, Vista?,Win 7
• Consider Android, iPad, iPhone envs
• explore targeting specific platforms with Se (Firefox x on Windows x, etc.) -- granularity with environments for test runs
• Look at resurrecting an Ubuntu Linux environment for Selenium
• What about Mac OS X Lion support? Do we want to maintain dual environments?
  • Which testruns run in Snow Leopard, which run in Lion? Do we want a blend of both?
  • Modify the current environment string to differentiate between the two versions
