QA/Execution/Web Testing/SUMO/Pilot

SUMO staging:

• http://support-stage-new.mozilla.com/forums
• http://support-stage-new.mozilla.com/search

Please focus only on things emanating from the two URLs, above -- i.e., don't worry about the homepage

SUMO milestone: 2.1 (list of open bugs) - please double-check that your issue isn't already reported, or not-yet finished

• username: support, password: password

Resources:

• Pre-existing Litmus (manual) testcases for forums
  • Use as a reference, *please do not run*
• We're looking at re-implementing (but not straight porting *everything* over) what already exists in http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/3, on http://support-stage-new.mozilla.com
  • See the list of open and resolved-fixed bugs for what's coming over from production and what's being left behind

Supported locales: English, Chinese (zh-TW), Deutsch (de), Español (es), Finnish (fi), Français (fr), Italiano (it), Japanese (ja), Korean (ko), Nederlands (nl), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt-BR), Vietnamese (vi);

Regarding Localization: we're chiefly interested in language/locale auto-detection on /search and /forums; we haven't made changes to the other parts of the site this round; thanks!

Supported operating systems:

• Anything which runs the supported browsers below:

Supported browsers:

• Firefox 3.5, 3.6, Minefield (Firefox nightly trunk build)
• IE 6, IE 7, IE 8
• Google Chrome 4.1.249.1064 (or latest shipping version)
• Opera 10.52
• Safari 4.0.5

What to test:

• Browser compatibility (functionality+layout) (in order of the above browsers)
• Functionality - vague on purpose (it should be intuitive)
  • Logged in vs. logged out views
  • Roles (esp. Admin vs logged-in vs anonymous users)
  • Pagination
  • Time stamps (should be in PDT)
  • Search (the following should be indexed)
    • That posters' real names/usernames are found
    • Post titles
    • Body content of posts
  • Wiki markup (see supported list in bug 561524)
  • User Avatars load
  • Thread deletion
  • Posts deletion
  • Reply
  • If/when in doubt, just test what's there and try to break it -- you can't go wrong

What *not* to test:

• Admin privs (ability to delete/edit forum posts)
• RTL
• Localization -- we only care about locale/language auto-detection, not missing strings

Caveats:

• Searching will return things in the *old* forum, not the *new* forum, except for the special "discussion" tab in Advanced Search
