Testing summary

Scope of Testing

In Scope

Sync Tabs is a project in Mozilla that aims to ensure your currently open tabs inside Firefox are available via Sync anywhere Firefox is supported. In addition to Sync Tabs, a corresponding sidebar will be added: Sync Tabs Sidebar, similar with Bookmarks/History sidebar. In the scope of our testing is the Sidebar for Sync Tabs and its functionality. The testing effort for SyncTab Sidebar will be invested on the following areas:

  • usability: the sybc tab sidebar must be easy to use and straightforward;
  • integration: devices and OS : the QA team will ensure no issues are related to synced tabs that come from different devices/OS's combinations;
  • functionality: basic and advanced functionality to be verified according to the existing requirements;

Out of Scope

Following areas/features are considered out of scope and will not be considered as testing zones to be handled in this test plan:

  • Sync
  • History?
  • Bookmarks?
  • Sync Tabs Sidebar on firefox mobile?

Requirements for testing

Environments

Testing will be performed on following OSes:

  • Bulleted list item
  • Windows 7
  • Windows 10
  • Windows XP
  • Ubuntu 15.04
  • Mac OS X 10

Testing will be done on iOS(iPad) and Android devices.

Test Strategy

Test Objectives

This section details the progression test objectives that will be covered. Please note that this is at a high level. For large projects, a suite of test cases would be created which would reference directly back to this master. This could be documented in bullet form or in a table similar to the one below.

Ref Function Test Objective Evaluation Criteria Test Type Owners
1 Access Sync Tabs sidebar The objective the test is trying to demonstrate that Sync tabs sidebar can be opened from different browser location Sidebar can be opened from 4 location

1. The View > Sidebar menu
2. The "View Synced Tabs Sidebar" toggle in the menu item
3. The option in the Sidebar toolbar button
4. Keyboard shortcut (to be determined)

Manual Eng Team
2 Sync Sidebar functionality The objective of these test suites is to verify that all requirements related to the Sync Sidebar functionality are met and that they are functioning as expected The criteria that will be evaluated to demonstrate the test is successful Manual/ Performance/ Usability Eng Team
3 Sync Sidebar usability The objective of these test suites is to verify that the application is user friendly. The criteria that will be evaluated to demonstrate the test is successful Manual/ Usability Eng Team
4 Sync Sidebar Integration The objective of these test suites is to ensure that no issues come from using synced tabs with different devices/OS's combinations; The criteria that will be evaluated to demonstrate the test is successful Manual Eng Team
5 Regression testing on the existing logged and fixed Bugzilla bugs Verify marked as fixed bugs against the Nightly Builds The criteria that will be evaluated to demonstrate the test is successful Manual/Regression testing Eng Team
