Private Browsing Test Plan

Overview

Provide a way for users to not be tracked when doing private browsing. According to mconnor's document, there should be a clear delineation between your "public" and "private" browsing sessions.

There will be some challenges with testing this feature since it is a complex area and many areas of stored data will need to be tested including:

• • Cookies
  • History
  • Cache
  • Content Prefs
  • User Passwords
  • Autocomplete
  • DOM storage
  • Authenicated Sessions
  • Downloads
  • Session Store

Test Strategy

• Major areas of test coverage
  • See list above
• Areas that will NOT be covered (by developer, third party, etc.)
  • Unit Tests
    • https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Ehsan/PrivateBrowsingTests

There will be a set of manual test cases that will be added to Litmus to cover this feature area.

Schedule Scoping

Estimate amount of time it will take to complete feature (Consider nightly builds, security reviews, bugs turnaround time)
