We need some abstracts for the testing BOF that will be held at OSCON.
We will have only about an hour to do this. So they will need to be fairly high level talks. I think we can fit two talks into that. Since Tomcat is there to do his Leak talk, let's make the other one a more general QA talk - either Tony or I can present it.

Intro QA Talk
Firefox 3 is known for performance, stability, compatibility and security. It is the work of thousands of volunteers that help the Mozilla QA team ensure that the product exceeds expectations in every category. Come learn how the Mozilla QA team brings these volunteers together, our QA methodologies, and how you could get involved and contribute your unique combination of skills and time to the Mozilla project.
Leak Talk
One of the largest goals of Firefox 3 development was releasing a product with a much more stable memory usage and smaller memory footprint than any previous Firefox release. To do this, we employed several QA techniques to hunt down and diagnose memory leaks. We also did extensive leak testing with hundreds of the most popular Firefox add-ons. Come and learn how we did this testing, the types of leaks we found and diagnosed. World class QA engineer Carsten Book aka Tomcat will be leading this session into the arcane intricacies of memory leak detection and diagnosis on the Mozilla Platform.
