    • Reasons - For Flightdeck, there was a configuration problem on the server bug 594211. For Jetpack SDK, test failures took much longer than expected to track down and resolve.
    • Starting with SDK 0.9, planning to drop explicit support for Firefox 3.6. Will only support 4.0 betas and nightlies.
    • Meeting with PMs to initiate the creation of test plan for Add-ons builder.

    • Bunch of automation test cases written and checked in to hg.Some more test cases in progress, will be done before end of Q3.
    • Features of private browsing and negative testing of tabs sync added to crossweave platform.
    • Need to figure out a strategy with Tony and Jonathan for crossweave on FFx 4.0 and higher as Sync is going to be integrated into FFx 4.

WebQA (Stephen)

QA Services (Marcia)

  • Meetups
    • Very successful meetup last Wednesday. We streamed the meetup live and have the .ogg video available. Need to figure where to house these videos on QMO.
  • Community Planning
    • Plans in the works for a "Make Firefox Better" Workshop at the Drumbeat Festival in Barcelona. Marcia working on a proposal.
  • Video Work
    • Working with Rainer to put together the International Promo video.
  • Tomcat
  • Accessibility:
    • FF4
      • Battling some last fall-outs from the post-bug 130078 fixes successful, no new crashers turned up over the past couple of days in this area.
      • Now working to land bug 570275 soon which will fix a whole range of other bugs as well, and which was necessitated by other performance enhancements for this release. Try-server build testing work.
    • FF 3.6.11:
      • Had another last-minute a11y fix landed yesterday, bug 600082, which was uncovered by one of the commercial assistive technology vendors. Waiting for verification from them on this since this code is not currently publicly available for me to test, but an initial try-server build test was successful. Together with bug 583952, this makes two important stability fixes for a11y in 3.6.11.
