Fennec 5.0 Beta Test Plan
Overview
The goal of this Overall Test Plan is to lay out our testing strategy, determine who will own certain test areas and when they will do it and, finally, track the status. All of our releases are tested off of the "Fennec 5.0 Beta Catch-All Test Run" on the Litmus TCM. For more information about Fennec 5.0, take a look at the mobile team's Feature Planning page.

Smoketests | IoanaChiorean | Once |
Lite verification tests (or smoketests) will be first run when the builds are ready. Tests are available on litmus under the Fennec 2.0 Test Suite. In any case of failure in any Smoketest, blockers need to be raised ASAP before proceeding to the BFTs.
Tests are available on litmus under the Fennec 2.0 Test Suite.

Crasher Triage
QA Task | Person/Group | How Often? |
Crasher Triage | mw22 / nhirata | Daily |
Socorro is Mozilla's primary web interface for triaging crash reports sent in by our user base. Due to the relatively large amount of changes coming in on a nightly basis, there is a need to check for crash reports coming in for every build. The owner of this task will triage through top crashers on a daily basis, file bugs if necessary and find steps to reproduce for those crashers if possible.
Device Compatibility
QA Task | Person/Group | How Often? |
Device Compatibility | AaronMT | Once |
As part of our testing strategy, we will want to verify device compatibiltiy checking for regressions or major issues in Firefox by running through our compatbility criteria spreadsheet . Mobile users can also contribute towards device qualifying by submitting feedback via our untested device survey.
Website Compatibility
QA Task | Person/Group | How Often? |
Website Compatibility | Aaronmt | Once |
As part of our testing cycle we want to cover and include a general testing process that focuses on website compatbility with sites viewed in mobile Firefox. We want you to use mobile Firefox to assist us in identifying any noticeably major issues found in websites. Issues can range from pages that do not look right, layout and positioning problems, interactivity issues, font issues and pages that grealy differ from browser to browser and what you would expect. You can help us by completing a website exploration form here, and following the companion instructional test-plan.
Testday
QA Task | Person/Group | How Often? |
Testday | kbrosnan | Once |
To continue determining better quality metrics, we'll want to work with our community to find new bugs and performance/stability metrics through the use of a Testday once per cycle per channel (i.e. nightly and beta). The QA owner for this task will send announcements, create a testplan, moderate the channel and post results for the Testday. To see when the next testday is schedule, please take a look at the Test_Days wiki.
