Goals

  • Make it easier for new testers to get started
  • Help integrate testers into the community

  • Encourage participation in special events (testdays, pre-release testing, etc...)

Feature Areas

  • Initial setup
    • Helps users get setup with an account if they don't already have a Litmus account. Provides an introduction to Mozilla QA.
  • Running tests
    • Select a testing area. Mozilla QA can push recommended areas to users to test around new code/features.
    • Run a test, select a result, next test is shown
    • Positive feedback to users: you've run this many tests, top testers of the week, etc...
  • Community aspects
    • Joga-style notification of special testing events, linking directly to the relevant set of tests and IRC

Other ideas

  • Direct link to IRC

Naming

  • QMO Extension
  • Tie this in with the Mozilla beta program concept somehow?

Questions

  • Extension presents a separate interface to Litmus different than that of the website. Is this a problem?
  • Just Firefox, or allow Thunderbird/calendar/etc... testing through the extension?
