QA

Last Week:

  • Please add additional ideas or projects here
• Made rudimentary progress in porting unittests to WinMo. Had real XPCShell output
• Geolocation testing (on firefox)
• With more people taking a look at private/nightly builds, we need to figure out a way to communicate what pieces are in development or broken.

This Week:

• Looking forward to a WinMO Alpha1?
• Increase visibility and content on the [TestDev] project page
• Continue work on porting unittests, can we get xpcshell fully working?
