Overview

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to describe the GPU Process feature from a testing perspective, including the following details:

  • Scope, focus areas and objectives of testing
  • Owners and points of contact for areas of responsibility
  • Strategy and types of testing
  • The entry and exit criteria
  • The basis of the test estimates
  • Any risks, issues, assumptions and test dependencies
  • The test schedule and major milestones
  • The test deliverables

Scope

The following is in scope from a testing perspective for the project team.

  • GPU process startup time
  • Page load time
  • GPU process restart time (in case of process kill)
  • Real world performance with various common usecases (webgl, canvas2d, flash).
  • Plugin startup time
  • Antivirus conflicts
  • Memory footprint
  • Shutdown time
  • Overall product stability
  • Scrolling performance and correctness

The following is not in scope from a testing perspective for the project team.

Test Strategy

Test Objectives

This section details the progression test objectives that will be covered. Please note that this is at a high level. For large projects, a suite of test cases would be created which would reference directly back to this master. This could be documented in bullet form or in a table similar to the one below.

Builds

This section should contain links for builds with the feature -

  • Links for Nightly builds
  • Links for Aurora builds
  • Links for Beta builds

Display (HiDPI)
Interraction (scroll, zoom)
Usable with a screen reader e.g. with NVDA
Usability and/or discoverability testing Is this feature user friendly
RTL build testing
Help/Support
Help/support interface required Make sure link to support/help page exist and is easy reachable.
Support documents planned(written) Make sure support documents are written and are correct.
Install/Upgrade
Feature upgrades/downgrades data as expected
Does sync work across upgrades
Requires install testing separate feature/application installation needed (not only Firefox)
Affects first-run or onboarding Florin/Lawrence are investigating if there is a dedicated QA for this, or we should test? Should be an yes/no and if is yes should add in detail column the team/person assigned.
Does this affect partner builds? Partner build testing yes/no options, add comment with details about who will lead testing
Enterprise Raise up the topic to developers to see if they are expecting to work different on ESR builds
Enterprise administration
Network proxies/autoconfig
ESR behavior changes
Locked preferences
Data Monitoring
Temporary or permanent telemetry monitoring List of error conditions to monitor
Telemetry correctness testing
Server integration testing
Offline and server failure testing
Load testing
Add-ons If add-ons are available for testing feature, or is current feature will affect some add-ons, then API testing should be done for the add-on.
Addon API required?
Comprehensive API testing
Permissions
Testing with existing/popular addons
Security Security is in charge of Matt Wobensmith. We should contact his team to see if security testing is necessary for current feature.
3rd-party security review
Privilege escalation testing
Fuzzing
Web Compatibility depends on the feature
Testing against target sites
Survey of many sites for compatibility
Interoperability depends on the feature
Common protocol/data format with other software: specification available. Interop testing with other common clients or servers.
Coordinated testing/interop across the Firefoxes: Desktop, Android, iOS
Interaction of this feature with other browser features
