Regression Tests

• Tests are run from a Full Regression set, created before Beta 2, to cover areas most affected by fixes in current Beta (Firefox 38)
• Regression tests will be run over the interval Beta 2 -> Release
• Tests to run for each Beta are picked to cover areas most affected by fixes since previous Beta (if there are no such areas, tests are picked randomly from the Full Beta Regression set).
• Tests will be available in Mozilla Moztrap.
• In any case of failure in any regression tests, bugs need to be raised ASAP before proceeding to the exploratory testing.

Regression testing areas (final list to be finalized before Beta 2):

• Desktop Firefox Add-on Compatibility
• Breakpad End-to-End Functionality
• Desktop Firefox Plugin Compatibility
• Desktop Firefox Web Compatibility
• Mac OSX Signing Verification
• Verify update applies with root owned files
• Mac OSX 32-bit Mode

Exploratory Testing

• Testing is performed around areas most affected by fixes since the previous Beta (in cases when there are no Regression tests to cover these areas, or those tests have already been run as part of the Full Beta Regression set)
