Overview

Scope

This wiki details the testing that will be performed by the QA-Eng team for the SHIELD project. SHIELD is a system addon that addresses user attrition and satisfaction in Firefox. QA focus shall be given mainly to:

• SHIELD Recipe management
• SHIELD Control center (recipe administration center)
• Delivery system for the Shield recipes: how and if the filter expressions are targeting a certain niche of the FF users.

Testing summary

Scope of Testing

In Scope

Detail what is in scope from a testing perspective for the project team:

• Testing the admin interface : control center -> basic functionality of creating/updating a recipe from the functional point of view
• Minimal recipe delivery: should cover integration with the Firefox client
• Basic recipe filters: the testing will cover that the recipes are delivered and executed to the intended bucket of people.
• Basic performance variations on FF browser: the testing shall cover basic scenarios to identify that broken or extreme recipes do not affect negatively FF

Requirements for testing

Environments

TBD - Specify OSes that need to be covered Specify other configuration/environmental setup needed - The preliminary testing phase shall take place in Nightly 52, but the requirements for testing Shield as it graduates to system add-on will change. See Channel Configuration

Channel dependent settings (configs) and environment setups

Nightly

The System Add-on is to be tested with two configurations:

• 1. Mock test recipes - emulation of recipes

Documentation on: https://normandy-mock.dev.mozaws.net/

1. Obtain a copy of Firefox with the SHIELD recipe client system add-on installed. You can check about:support to ensure that you have it.
2. Set the extensions.shield-recipe-client.dev_mode preference to true to run recipes immediately on startup.
3. Set the extensions.shield-recipe-client.logging.level preference to 0 to enable more logging.
4. Set the security.content.signature.root_hash preference to 4C:35:B1:C3:E3:12:D9:55:E7:78:ED:D0:A7:E7:8A:38:83:04:EF:01:BF:FA:03:29:B2:46:9F:3C:C5:EC:36:04. This is the public hash used for verifying content signatures of the test data.
5. The preference value for extensions.shield-recipe-client.api_url should be set for the mock recipe you want to run.

• 2. Staging server - using Shield System addon and the staging Control Center

1. You need VPN access.
2. Obtain a copy of Firefox with the SHIELD recipe client system add-on installed. You can check about:support to ensure that you have it.
3. Set the extensions.shield-recipe-client.dev_mode preference to true to run recipes immediately on startup.
4. Set the extensions.shield-recipe-client.logging.level preference to 0 to enable more logging.
5. Set the security.content.signature.root_hash preference to DB:74:CE:58:E4:F9:D0:9E:E0:42:36:BE:6C:C5:C4:F6:6A:E7:74:7D:C0:21:42:7A:03:BC:2F:57:0C:8B:9B:90.
6. Set extensions.shield-recipe-client.api_url to https://normandy-admin.stage.mozaws.net/api/v1
7. To access control center, https://normandy-admin.stage.mozaws.net/control/.

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.

Ref	Function	Test Objective	Evaluation Criteria	Test Type	Owners
1	Control Center	Admin interface allows admin users to add/edit recipes	Basic configuration actions are possible	Manual/Usability	Eng Team
2	Recipe execution	Recipes created in the admin interface are delivered to the Client FF	The FF Client receives and executes the recipe	Manual	Eng Team
3	Peer approval	Recipes created in the admin interface need peer approval to be enabled	Each recipe created in the admin interface cannot be run without peer approval	Manual	Eng Team
4	Filter Expressions	Each recipe targets a particular bucket defined in filter expressions area in admin	Only FF matching the filter expressions will run the recipe	Manual	Eng Team
5	Sampling	Basic check on client running the recipe ratio	Heuristic approach to do a basic checking of the sampling set in the recipe	Manual	Eng Team
