Firefox 3.1 Smoke Tests Revision

Monday, March 2nd, 2009 @ 11:15 by juanbMozQA Badge

During our QA workweek we discussed how effective these are at catching regressions, and we talked about changing the tests themselves, their number, and possibly revamping how we run these. Please take a look at the following forum post and let us know what you think: http://quality.mozilla.org/forums/test/smoke-tests-suite-revision Read More...

This week we are kicking off a new Mozilla QA effort to help community members learn more about programming.

We are beginning an open group learning activity to teach everyone involved introductory Python programming skills. Anyone who wants to learn Python is invited, no prior knowledge of Python or Mozilla technologies is required.

We'll be using a Google Group to organize participants and encourage all interested to join:

Welcome to new QMO beta...

Our goal with the redesign was to make it easier for anyone to get involved with Mozilla QA, provide existing community members a chance to get better organized, and promote the community projects and events that people can work on.

Nightly testers needed for mozilla-central!

Users who installed a build of Minefield before 24 November and have been using automatic update since then may be in for a surprise: you are no longer using Minefield or testing mozilla-central!

On 24 November, the Firefox code branched: mozilla-central continues as the repository for all new code. After code has been tested in mozilla-central, it is ported to the 1.9.1 repository, a more stable codebase leading to Firefox 3.1. Read More...
