QA Status/Topics
- General QA
- QA/Dev patch heads up discussion [timr]
- bug 415498 – Some errors not displayed in Error Console when using addEventListener. Landing a patch like this should have given QA a bigger heads up since it improved the error reporting that we havent seen up to this point.
- A few classes of bugs that might warrant extra heads up to or testing by QA:
- Changing system level messaging (ex: logging and error messages)
- Changing major look and feel (ex: adding/changing dialogs, changing themes)
- Changing how we pass data into or out of FFx (ex: protocol handlers)
- Changing the security policy. Changing or tightening policy can make unusual things break.
- Changing a highly exposed area of code that could cause possible regressions.
- RC1 Testplan is ready [tchung]
- Performed Tiger Team Duties according to schedule. These are smoketests against nightly builds on all platforms. [marcia]
