QA Tasks

Firefox 1.5.0.10-2.0.0.2 Test Plan <-- MoCo QA tasks and results are here.

In order to get more coverage on fixes going in for Firefox 1.5.0.10 and 2.0.0.2 plus Thunderbird 1.5.0.10(maybe?), we need the community to help test the latest RC candidates or nightly "latest-mozilla1.8.0" AND nightly "latest-mozilla1.8" branch builds while looking at the current list of fixed1.8.0.10 bugs AND fixed1.8.1.2 bugs (excluding XForms bugs). Here are a few ways to help:

  • Vista Testing : We plan to fix quite a few bugs that will make the Firefox experience a lot nicer on Vista, so we need to make sure to run a thorough set of tests on Vista, including BFTs, updates, etc... Find the Vista test plan here: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox:1.5.0.x:Vista_Test_Plan
  • BFTs & Regression Testing: Running through a set of BFTs on Litmus is the best way to test basic functionality and explore various areas for regressions.
  • Extensions & Themes Testing: Install and use some of your favorite extensions and themes. Try a few new ones from addons.mozilla.org to make sure everything works as expected.
  • Minor/Major Software Updates: We may enable minor / updates prior to releasing 1.5.0.10, meaning that the user will be given the option to go from a 1.5.0.9 release to 2.0.0.1. Please go through the test cases in Litmus that go through this functionality, Revised Software Update Tests.

Community testing and feedback will be managed through the QA Blog and the Newsgroup, so keep an eye out for posts and discussions there!
