= Overview =
== Purpose ==
Activity Stream is a Firefox about:newtab and about:home replacement that aims to help users return quickly and easily to contextually relevant stuff on the web. It is currently implemented as an Add-on SDK/Jetpack add-on, and has been running as a TestPilot experiment for some months. [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Activity_Stream_1.0#Overview more info]

== Scope ==
This wiki details the testing that will be performed for Activity Stream project. It defines the overall testing requirements and provides an integrated view of the project test activities. Its purpose is to document:
* What will be tested
* How testing will be performed

= Testing summary = 
== Scope of Testing ==
=== In Scope ===

The scope of our testing is the Activity Stream desktop system add-on and its functionality. The testing effort for Activity Stream will be invested on the following areas:

* integration: verify the add-on integration with the current browser functionalities and UI;
* functionality: basic and advanced functionality to be verified according to the existing requirements;
* usability: the Activity Stream New Tab content must be easy to use and straightforward;
* testing how Bookmarks and History are imported in the add-on functionalities (from profile or Firefox account);

=== Out of Scope ===
The mobile testing is not in Desktop QA Engineering's scope.

= Requirements for testing =
== Environments ==
Testing will be performed on the following OSes (both x86 & x64 infrastructures): 

* Windows 7
* Windows 8.1
* Windows 10
* Ubuntu 14.04
* Ubuntu 16.04 
* Mac OS X 10.10
* Mac OS X 10.11
* Mac OS X 10.12

= Test Strategy =

== 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.

{| class="wikitable"

! Ref !! Function !! Test Objective !! Evaluation Criteria !! Test Type !! Owners 
|-
| 1 || New Tab functionality and content || Verify that Activity Stream content is displayed in a new tab || Activity stream user content is displayed in each new tab opened || Manual || Eng Team  
|-
| 2 || Bookmarks & history || Verify that profile / account bookmarks and history are correctly imported in the add-on || All the previous stored data is displayed on the add-on pages || Manual || Eng Team 
|-
| 3 || about:home override || Verify that Activity Stream content is displayed when navigating to about:home or clicking the "Home" button. || Navigating to about:home correctly redirects to the Activity Stream page || Manual || Eng Team
|-
| 4 || Disable / Re-enable the Activity Stream system add-on || Verify that the system add-on can be disabled and enabled without any issues. || 1. Disable the Activity Stream system add-on from the  "about:config" page, using browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.enabled pref ("True" for enabled and "False" for disabled). <br />2. Verify that the browser UI returned to default functionality on the affected areas.<br />3. Re-enable Screenshots system add-on and verify that the browser has changed back. || Manual || Eng Team 
|-

== Risk analysis ==

{| class="wikitable" style="width:60%"
|-
! Risk areas !! Mitigation 
|-
| External dependencies ||- We should do an end-to-end test of how we will integrate with the browser<br />- We should determine what our exact requirements are for sample size.<br />- Look into Telemetry as a contingency plan.
|-
| Scope ||- All locales <br />- Accessibility requirements
