Release Management Q2 2014 Goals

Release Management General

Firefox Desktop/Mobile

  • [Sylvestre] Release 29 without too much damages
  • [Sylvestre] Document most of our workflows / processes
  • [Lawrence+Sylvestre] Push on QA tools: code coverage, tools to improve code quality like static analyzers
  • [Benjamin] Build a better team wiki landing page

Firefox OS

  • [Preeti] Successfully run Phase 1 of dogfooding
  • [Preeti] Investigate reducing regressions in FxOS
  • [Preeti] Establish a change council for FxOS
  • [Bhavana] Work closely with QA and Improve Quality metrics for FxOS (some thoughts below)
    • step 1 : Identify existing QA testcases ans ensure 1.3 IOT bugs were included ?
    • step 2 : I envision a QA dashboard view with a plot which entails total testcases/time per week
      • testcases = regressions+ new feature coverage
  • [Bhavana] Automation coverage
    • Have a kick-off session with :jgriffin scheduled for 3/27
    • I hope to have a good understanding of how much code-coverage we have with the automated tests, what's lacking, identify areas which could be improved upon
  • [Bhavana] Drive the necessity of having a good bisection tool
    • Often times, we've had situations in FxOS where we cannot pin-point to a bug to identify a fallout
    • Not sure, if the existing tools need to be improved or what the core issue is here
  • [Bhavana] Help drive Flame updates/builds
    • Already having conversations with :francis/:catlee
