- Moved to Chief Deployments - [bug 789051 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789051]
- B2G
- Accomplishments:
- Have 16 tests covered and passing; work continues on the remaining ones we can do, covered here: https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/issues?labels=gaia+smoketest&page=1&state=open
- Jason Smith helped us cover listing out all remaining work to complete the smoketests (and more!) in GitHub Issues (see above); thx, Jason!
- We've mapped automated tests directly to their MozTrap manual tests for easier tracking
- We've evangelized and continue to evangelize the tests, and are working to bring both Webdev and a couple core Gaia-dev resources onboard to help us
- Issues/Risks:
- We've automated many of the easiest smoketests; the remaining ones will be much harder to get (require Exchange set up for activesync email testing, for example)
- There are still a few high-level Marionette issues that either outright block tests, or make things much harder to automate too
- See the remaining list we're tracking in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=801898
- Accomplishments:
