• Betatest channel - PASS
• Releasetest channel - PASS
• Beta channel (live) - PASS

Testcases and Results are tracked here.

L10N P1 Spotchecks

Visual inspection: Go through the P1 list of locales, and run a spotcheck to see if everything visually looks fine. Refer to L10N Requirements for more specifics.

Automation inspection: supported locales will be ran through Minotaur, and results will be reviewed by axel and mic.

Testcases and Results are tracked here - PASS.
