General Info & Status
QA Tasks
Thunderbird 2 Test Plan <-- MoCo QA tasks and results are here.
- BFTs & Regression Testing: Running through a set of BFTs on Litmus is the best way to test basic functionality and explore various areas for regressions.
- Extensions & Themes Testing: Install and use some of your favorite extensions and themes. Try a few new ones from addons.mozilla.org to make sure everything works as expected.
- Minor/Major Software Updates: We have to make sure minor updates work as expected, since the client will now have the ability to do major updates from 1.5.0.8 to 1.5.0.9. Please go through the test cases in Litmus that go through this functionality, Revised Software Update Tests (especially minor).
Community testing and feedback will be managed through the QA Blog and the Newsgroup, so keep an eye out for posts and discussions there!
