B2G/QA

Overview

B2G (Boot 2 Gecko) is a new and exciting web platform that Mozilla is developing on mobile devices. The project will focus on the following:

  • New web APIs: build prototype APIs for exposing device and OS capabilities to content (Telephony, SMS, Camera, USB, Bluetooth, NFC, etc.)
  • Privilege model: making sure that these new capabilities are safely exposed to pages and applications
  • Booting: prototype a low-level substrate for mobile devices (phones and tablets)
  • Applications: choose and port or build apps to prove out and prioritize the power of the system.


Team Details

The B2G QA team is committed to qualifying the full spectrum of testing from backend (Gecko) to Frontend (Gaia). Test coverage will include a range of manual execution steps, automated test coverage, proper documentation, and community involvement projects.

Bug Triage

B2G does a platform and frontend bug triage each day with Engineering, QA, and PMs. The times and location is captured in the B2G Meetings page.

Mozilla QA rotation schedule

Gaia Triage
  • M - Naoki Hirata
  • T - John Hammink
  • W - Naoki Hirata

Gecko Triage
  • M - Jason Smith

This list just guarantees at least one represntative to the daily triage meetings. Anyone can attend. I recommend as often as you can because there is invaluable communication, collaboration, and decision-making that creates a equal voice.
