• Supporting Releng with Android Automation Rollout - ctalbert, bmoss, jmaher

• Firebug Test Automation - ctalbert

• Crossweave 2 - jgriffin
  • Converting existing YAML-like tests to JavaScript.
  • Update pulse monitor to handle duplicate buildbot messages we're receiving through pulse.

Performance

• User Responsiveness Measurement - ted

• SpeedTestsJS - mcote
  • Fix last week to IE controller. Still something flaky there, as IE seems to skip tests sometimes. Everything else is very stable.
  • Interesting: Chrome 12 has small but noticeable speed improvements in some tests (viz http://brasstacks.mozilla.com/birt-viewer/run?__report=report/MedianRuns.rptdesign&RP_TEST=MrPotatoGun&RP_OS=Windows&RP_IP=10.250.4.115 - Chrome 11 was running up to June 14 at a very stable 48 FPS in this test, and Chrome 12 now runs at a very stable 53 FPS).

Web Tools

• Bug Hunter UI - mcote, bc
  • First couple admin views are up. One or two more things to do for the admin view, then starting on crash/unit test/assertion views.

• Toolbox - jhammel, harth
  • round 1 effectively done \o/
  • there are a few minor bugs and directions for future work, but overall it works pretty well
  • over 100 tools so far!

• Regression Hunter - samliu, harth
  • Currently implementing EC2 "cloud building" which will do regression-finding builds on EC2 instead of on your local machine
  • mozregression finds regressions using nightly and local builds. Also you can use mozremotebuilder to use the try server right now (very slow)

Tool Infrastructure

• Manifest for the manifest-less - jmaher, jhammel
  • patches mostly done to integrate manifestdestiny and mozinfo into m-c and xpcshell bug 658671
