QA/e10s Multi
Contents
Overview
Purpose
This wiki details the testing that will be performed by QA and other teams for e10s-multi. It defines the overall testing requirements and provides an integrated view of the project test activities. Its purpose is to document:
- Areas of risk
- What will be tested
- How testing will be performed
- criteria
- deliverables
- ownership
- schedule
- What data will be monitored
To help ensure the best possible release and long term maintenance of this feature.
Risk Analysis
| Risk area | Requirement | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | No browser responsiveness regressions | PASS |
| Memory Usage | No regressions in comparable system memory usage | PASS |
| Stability | No regressions in crash rate | PASS |
| Major site compatibility | No regressions at target websites | PASS |

If it's not listed above, it is currently out of scope.
Objectives
| Criteria Description | Metric | Single-Content Process | Multi-Content Process | Criteria Met? | QA Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Manual testing | Tests passed | Passed in e10s release | results (1) | Pass (20170405) | SV - Andrei |
| Unit testing | Automated tests pass | perfherder | perfherder | YES (20170509) | Gabor |
| UI | Tab/Window responsiveness | Jank Analysis | Jank Analysis | YES (20170602) | tracy |
| Memory monitoring | System memory use | Memory Use Analysis | Memory Use Analysis | YES (20170602) | tracy |
| Stability | Crash rate stable | Stability Analysis | Stability Analysis | YES (20170516) | jimm |
(1) Manual test results indicate known bugs. Those are not e10s-multi specific.
Manual Testcases
- Focus on observed performance of target sites notorious for performance issues; Broadly, these tend to be webmail services ( GMail ), social networks ( Facebook, Twitter ) or productivity tools ( Google Apps, Office 365 )
- Test around multiple content process creation and assignment
- Check for reasonable load balance across processes when opening many tabs from various sources.
Environments
Full Testing will be performed using Nightly for Desktop builds on:
- Windows
- Mac OS X
- Linux
Channel dependent settings (configs) and environment setups
- In Nightly dom.ipc.processCount should be 4 by default
