== Aim ==
 
* To provide a continuous check within Mailnews and its sub-components for the following items:
*# Total memory leaks.
*# Total memory usage (aka bloat).
* Provide a consistent number from build to build where no source code has changed.
 
Note, it would be difficult to test every possible configuration/dialog, but the components that represent the main day-to-day usage within MailNews should be checked where possible.
 
== Method ==
 
* The method of testing memory bloat and leaks will be the same, using the same run of test data.
* With a pre-defined profile run up:
*# MailNews
*# Address Book
*# Message Compose
* Measure Leaks and Bloats, in a similar way to Firefox.
 
TBD: do we want to select different messages/folders, if so how?
 
== Pre-defined profile ==
 
Requirements:
 
* One POP3 account (Mails TBD)
* One Identity
* One SMTP server defined (not used)
* One Address Book with 1000 entries
 
TBD: Newsgroup/rss servers?
 
No servers will be checked for new mail on startup.
 
== Results ==
 
Printed via standard tinderbox methods.
