Places Test Plan

Overview

Ensure feature enhancements and performance improvements work as prescribed without causing any regressions from the current version (3.0.x)

Test Strategy

List major areas of test coverage:

• Places (Bookmarking, History and Library) UI
• Database and query performance
  • could be a series of tests that profile common Places queries (see bug 451607)
• Areas not covered: since the performance improvement fixes will be affecting most of Places, we'll be testing everything we can.
• Test cases will be in unit tests and Litmus (with possible conversion of some Litmus cases to Mozmill)
  • Existing test cases used for 3.0 as well as new test cases added for new features (see bugs below)

Schedule Scoping

• performance is watched closely by devs on each check-in
• FFT's will be run for beta 1 and Final RC 1 (2 hours per platform each run)
• BFT's will be run for any other point release (1 hour per platform each run)
