As I mentioned briefly in this week's status meeting, the aim for
trunk for the next couple of weeks is to get it in a position where
we are able to ship it as an alpha release.<br>
<br>
Generally, I believe the trunk builds to be in a reasonable state.
The tree is reasonably green at the moment which certainly helps,
especially as that means the areas which our tests cover should
still be working fine.<br>
<br>
However I have two requests for help:<br>
<ol>
<li>Testing of nightly builds.</li>
<ul>
<li>There hasn't been significant diverge in the code base yet
(apart from the backend) so this should be fine testing with
existing profiles, though you may want to back up first!<br>
</li>
<li>Please can folks spend a little bit of time testing trunk
builds - here we're generally looking at the question of is
everything still working and looking reasonable in trunk i.e.
are there any <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogfooding">dogfood</a>
bugs or big regressions from 3.1 that we need to fix?</li>
<li>See below for some bugs we know about. If you file new ones,
please let me know.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>Help with fixing bugs</li>
<ul>
<li>We've a few issues that we know about that we need to fix,
some haven't hit us yet. See the list below, if people can
help us fix them up, then it will help us move forward
quicker.<br>
</li>
<li>We've got a bug on file for getting blocking and status
flags set up for the trunk builds. Hopefully that should
happen in the next few days, then we can start flagging some
of these in those queries.</li>
</ul>
</ol>
Significant bugs I know about:<br>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565294">Bug
565294</a> Add-on manager doesn't work.</li>
<ul>
<li>Help with debugging would be very useful.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li><a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=563764">Bug
563764</a> / <a
href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=563766">Bug
563766</a> Jit has been disabled in chrome because it was
broken - the quick search filter bar wasn't working correctly
and mozmill tests were failing.</li>
<ul>
<li>All we know here is the functionality we use regressed at
some stage between 1.9.2 and 1.9.3, but afaik there's no easy
way to do a regression test for it. I'm hoping Andrew can take
a look at it in the next few days.</li>
</ul>
<li><a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=553993">Bug
553993</a> The network error page doesn't work</li>
<ul>
<li>I have a patch awaiting review for this.</li>
</ul>
<li><a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565027">Bug
565027</a> The tests in toolkit/mozapps/extensions/test/
frequently time out - probably Mac only.<br>
</li>
<ul>
<li>Admittedly this wouldn't even be an alpha blocker, but we're
seeing frequent orange from it.</li>
<li>There's a bit of information on the bug it would be useful
to know if it (easily) happens on non-Mac platforms.</li>
<li>If anyone has time to spend trying to reproduce and/or
debug, that would be useful.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
Any other significant bugs that are regressions from 3.1?<br>
<br>
If anyone can spend a little bit of time debugging/fixing please
assign the bug to yourself or let us know here so that we don't
duplicate effort.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Mark.<br>
