This shows the most recent versions and their review resolutions. This is very valuable information when reviewing an add-on. You need to make sure that issues brought up in the last reviews have been addressed. The last 3 are shown by default, but you can click on the previous ones to expand them. | This shows the most recent versions and their review resolutions.

The All Platforms link points to the file to review, generally an XPI. The Validation link will run the automatic code validator on that file and show you the results. The Contents link opens the source code viewer, and the Compare link opens the diff viewer, so you can compare the current version with the previous ones. | The All Platforms link points to the file to review, generally an XPI.

History entries can have Version Notes and Notes to Reviewers. Version Notes are meant to be public, while Notes to Reviewers are meant for us reviewers only. They can include testing information or responses to previous review notes. Since testing information isn't usually version-dependent, we prefer to have those in the Whiteboard field, which you can find at the bottom of review pages. This is a shared field between the add-on developer and the review team, so make sure that testing info is always there and up to date. | |||
