Roundtable and Q&A
Test Automation: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/go-faster-testing-pipeline
Jonathan and Matt: question: will Go Faster support all the versions of firefox? (ie nightly, D.E., Beta, Release)?
Krupa: hello writes their own tests in selenium
Selena: and node
Tarek: we have node tests that work on the server side API but I dont think there are end to end tests for Hello
Hello questions can be discussed at 12:30 (PDT) meeting today
In summary, we need to plan for /expect some manual testing in the beginning for Hello
Which are the key questions?
Rob: there is one end to end functional test in moz-centra for hello that stands up a fake server
Client Side (Rob and Dave):
folks have been on PTO, so no major progress
google doc: (please review) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SI15ORlfsVcADerO9kSW31S5IUCYAsYlXSFS2Lbvo_s/edit
we will want real time telemetry and exceptions reporting - looking to make raven.js work for this
Build Pipeline (mrrgn):
Hello meeting set up today, goals are aggressive, we don;t have a hello add-on yet to make a test pipeline around yet. Meanwhile baseline pipeline work continues. Hopefully todays meeting will help us figure out where to put it (assuming balrog) and how we're going to get it there.
open question: we're going to use balrog, not AMO for this?
IdeaTown (John)
The mature UX spec is coming along! Coordinating with marketing and branding folks now. John is standing up web components for a basic splash/prelaunch site. (show us, when you're ready! :D)
FTE coming soon!
Updates (Tarek):
last week in Paris some progress was made see doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XCtVh8fDFbg_yPr1EHrx8Ry61lQI4bfVdWelKQfhopc/edit#
we aim to provide an open service that will work on any client
working with Ben to implement in Balrog, to keep a single ping mechanism in Firefox. This may or may not be the best solution, still determining.
We'd like to build something that would work equally well on mobile platforms.
