QA/Firefox3/TestPlan/Content Handling - Web Protocol and Application

Platform and Configurations

We will want to test with the most popular web and platform specific applications for each high-priority type of format we want to support.

TODO: Is there a need to test cross platform products on more than one platform? Because at some point, you end up testing that product and not the content handler integration.
