  • What will be tested
    • A version of Firefox 55b9 or newer.
  • How testing will be performed
    • Testing will be performed by the Softvision QA Las Vegas team.

Test Strategy

Risk Assessment and Coverage

ID Description / Threat Description Covered by Test Objective Magnitude Probability Priority Impact Score
RAC-1 Risk description 1 TO-1 2-Moderate 1-Unlikely 3-High 6
RAC-2 Risk description 2 TO-1 3-High 3-Almost Certain 3-High 27
RAC-3 Risk description 3 TO-2 2-Moderate 2-Possible 3-High 12

Values:

  • Magnitude: 1- Low , 2-Moderate, 3-High
  • Probability: 1-Unlikely, 2-Possible, 3-Almost Certain
  • Priority: 1 - Low, 2-Medium, 3-High

Impact Score Breakdown:

  • An impact value of 1, 2, 3, 4 would describe an area which although should be covered there aren't expected any discoveries of critical issues.
  • An impact value of 6, 8, 9, 12 would describe an area in which we expect to find issues but those issues are not expected to be critical.
  • An impact value of 18 or 27 would describe an area on which it is likely to find issues and those issues to be critical or blockers.

Test Objectives

This section details the progression test objectives that will be covered. Please note that this is at a high level. For large projects, a suite of test cases would be created which would reference directly back to this master. This could be documented in bullet form or in a table similar to the one below.

Ref Function Test Objective Evaluation Criteria Test Type RAC Owners
1 Checking preference value of dom.ipc.processCount.web Verify the pref Value is set to integer instead of a string Manual Testing (Bug Verification) RAC-1, RAC-2, RAC-3 Eng Team
2 Ensure updates of existing users of older versions have the pref flipped Verify the pref Value is set to integer instead of a string for existing Firefox users Manual Testing (Bug Verification) RAC-1, RAC-2, RAC-3 Eng Team
3 Monitoring the process tabs of the operating system Verify multiple content processes are running per the pref Multiple content processes are running simultaneously Manual Testing (Bug Verification) RAC-1, RAC-2, RAC-3 Eng Team
