 * Mozmill Crowd - A change in how we test Firefox
 ** Presenter: Henrik Skupin
-** Abstract: With the Mozmill Crowd extension Mozilla QA offers a totally new feature to let users run functional tests for Firefox fully automated. Those tests cover a big chunk of our general Litmus BFT tests, a couple of l10n tests for localizers, and even tests for add-ons. Our goal is to make sure that everyone will be able to speed-up their work and will execute excessive testing. In this session we also want to get direct feedback from the attendees.
+** Abstract: Mozilla QA has created a new feature called the Mozmill Crowd Extension that allows any Firefox user to automatically and effortlessly run our set of basic Mozmill functional test cases against their installed Firefox browser and report the results to our central reporting server. Any user in any locale can now participate in giving us valuable feedback on how their browser is operating in their environment. Mainly targeting the thousands of Firefox nightly testers, this extension will give Mozilla unprecedented insights on how a particular nightly build is working across the globe. In this session we will describe and demonstrate how the extension works, what data is collected from the tests and how the results are reported and analyzed.
