• Selenium 2 released with Grid 2 and rolled out through our grid.
  • So far tests are running well, if you see problems please raise them.
  • Tests seem to be a bit faster (probably due to proper load balancing).
  • Many more environments available now. See http://qa-selenium.mv.mozilla.com:4444/grid/console
  • Builds running in parallel can be increased to run more threads.
    • input.stage has been increased from 4 to 8.
    • amo.rewrite has been increased from 5 to 8.
  • Selenium 2 will work with Firefox 5, so we should start running tests on this by default.

• Pivotal Track Attack
• New Details page to be released soon.
• Selenium 2 - Marlena will circulate info
