Mobile Stability

Fenix

• Bug 1651221 has spiked significantly in both Fenix and Focus 101. Currently the #1 topcrash for both.
  • Roger Yang is going to revert a change in AC which may be contributing to the spike

QA

Nightly

• Nightly 103 features - Test plans and Test cases in progress

Beta

• Beta 102 feature preliminary testing for QA-1474 - Use Adaptive History for Autofill - in progress. No concerns so far.
• Beta 102 tier1 top sites testing - in progress. No new issues encountered so far.
• 2nd round of regression testing for Firefox Beta 102 - in progress. No new issues encountered so far.

Feature Status Review

• Firefox 102 Beta
  • No challenged or at risk features at this time. Many features listed as 'done' and just waiting to ride the trains.
• Firefox 103 Nightly
  • M1 - Accessibility Engine Improvements (Cache the World Milestone 1) still reported as challenged but I suspect this is just leftover from the issues experienced in Fx102 before the decision was made to slip. Waiting to get an update from JTeh.
  • Working to finalize the feature list.

SUMO Report

• A few users noted the TLS certificate issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1691122
• Fx Translations launched with some issues in release: https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-translations/issues
• Firefox 101 bring a preference to bypass the combined print preview/setup overlay and skip directly to the system dialog: print.prefer_system_dialog
  • Since this bypasses the setup controls, it may cause complications printing websites that require tweaks to scaling or margins.
