What is TestDev and Fennec

Fennec TestDev is a part of the Fennec project aimed at bringing automation to Fennec specific areas (such as panning, tabs, bookmarks). Automation will be using existing automation frameworks that Firefox uses, but new test cases that are only useful for Fennec.

Areas to focus on

• Tabs - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485855
  • Loading and switching between tabs
  • Test maximum tabs? (>4 ?)
  • Slide over and display tab form
  • + button, X button on tab preview
  • Tab focus when adding, closing tab
  • Tab preview (full screen, or any black/white? test with a solid color page)
  • Verify softkeyboard for entering URL on new tab

• Bookmarks - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486490

Clearly define methods for:

• Excluding test cases from the Firefox tree
• Creating unique test cases for Fennec that only run on Fennec
• Follow up on existing Unittest bugs and get resolution (either in workarounds, or fixes)

Types of tests

• Mochitest
• Browser-chrome
• Mochitest-chrome
• Reftest
