Firefox Malling list give us an idea Firefox 3 Beta 2 Testday, Friday 14th December 2007

The success and quality of Firefox is dependent on community members like you, so we appreciate your help with testing!

Please join the Mozilla QA Community for the Firefox 3 Beta 2 Testday (We will use the Release Candidate for testing)!

The event will run Friday, December 14th, 2007, from 7am - 5pm PST

How to prepare for the test day:

* We will use the Firefox 3 Beta 2 Release Candidate. We will post a Download Link on http://quality.mozilla.org/en/node/1131.
* You should either back up your profile or use the profile manager to create a new profile for testing.

Note: We will test the Release Candidate of Firefox 3 Beta 2 not the Final Release Version of Firefox 3 Beta 2 on this testday. As soon as the Firefox 3 Beta 2 Version is released, please update to the released Version.

How you can help with this test day:*

First join us in #testday on irc.mozilla.org. The choose one or more of the following things to do:

* Run Basic Functional Tests (bft) / Full Functional Tests (fft) in Litmus or any test of your choice (we have also special test areas for Users of Windows Vista and Mac OS 10.5 Leopard). Ask for help in the testday channel if you’re not familiar with Litmus. If a testcase is terribly unclear, mark it as such. When you have questions about using Litmus, please ask the moderators in the testday channel or see the Litmus tutorial.

* If you have time, check out and test intensive the new and improved Features in Firefox 3 like Addon-Manager , Security/Privacy , Places (Bookmarks/History) , the new location bar and the Download Manager . If you see an issue, raise it in #testday so people there can confirm it. Then search for the bug in Bugzilla . If it’s not on file, log the bug
and again mention it in #testday so that it can be confirmed.
