Timeline:
Begin testing April 20th
Finish testing as much as possible ~May 15th
Absolutely must be ready to ship by May 28th
What to test:
- Run through the pages for each available/completed locale
- Make sure that the pages look OK in Right To Left languages, which are:
- he, ar, fa
- Make sure that if we display a Download Now box somewhere, the box is big enough for the translated text
- If we have a screenshot, see if it makes sense to have it localized (Firefox interface and web page displayed)
- Tier one locales should have:
- Localized text
- Localized websites in the screenshot
- Worry about seeing Windows Vista screenshots primarily, but check for Mac screenshots on the tier 1 locales
- Tier two locales:
- To prioritize, ensure that their firstrun and whatsnew pages are localized first
- Tier three locales:
- Best effort, as time allows (tier three list)
- Tier one locales should have:
- See if all links work correctly, we often provide redirects to Mozilla Europe/Japan/China for pages like the release notes
- Testing of any locale fallback mechanism we put on the pages, make sure that we do not send people to non-translated resources if we have a translated one
- Ensure XHTML Strict 1.0 validation
- Localized page titles
