I Have Been Wondering About The Beta's. When Are We Releasing It To The Public?

When It's Not A Beta Anymore?

Greetings to all our testers running Windows Vista!  Sometime in mid-March Vista SP1 is expected to be deployed, and we could certainly use some extra eyes on Vista after the launch.  In particular we want to make sure things like crash reporter, default browser, and the OS integration pieces work properly.

The Mozilla QA team is interested in building a mailing list that we will use to communicate with community members interested in helping us test release candidate and developer builds.  The primary goal of this testing will be to help identify regressions or issues before the final bits are shipped. Note: This is not intended to be a general beta program.
Please visit http://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Community/Betatesters_Mailing_List to find out the details of what kinds of folks we are looking for, as well as additional information concerning the list.

....You're not too late for Round 2!   Last week was a great time for eager beavers to help test out pre-released builds of Firefox 3 Beta 1.   It was such a hit, that we've decided to extend one more week for everyone to help us bless the beta before releasing next week.   So join us tomorrow (11/16) between 7am - 5pm PST on irc.mozilla.org, channel #testday, grab a pre-released beta 1 rc3 build , and have some Mozilla fun!

If you have any feedback on the Firefox 2.0.0.9 beta, please add it to this topic. Thanks!

Team Mozilla QA could use your help!

I see the nightly builds for Firefox in every language BUT US ENglish.  Why is this?

There are US versions under TRUNK, which appears to be pre-versions of Firefox 3.0--is this the same thing?  To me, this looks more like alpha of 3.0, but maybe I'm wrong. 

Call for testing help!

If you've got especially either Mac OS X 10.4 or Windows Vista, Mozilla QA would be very appreciative of and interested in any testing help you can provide for the Download Manager.

Bug 103487 has landed, which now means we *should* integrate with the various anti-virus vendors' software.

Hi all -

I've posted a preliminary document explaining what needs to be done in order to reliably test Firefox OS X integration (or any application with multiple builds, for that matter).

Its URL is: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox:OS_Integration:Mac_OS_X

Please let me know if you have any feedback, by emailing stephend@mozilla.com .

Thanks!

As most of you know, online banking/financial transactions are an important part of the web experience.  We would like to gather a group of users who would be interesting in confirming that their online banks and financial institutions work with Firefox and in continuing to test and identify any potential issues as we move closer to the final ship of the next Firefox release.  We need users in the U.S. as well as in the international space.  For the U.S., these appear to be some of the top 10 online banks:

We have a few mailing lists and IRC channels that are specific to plaforms and operating systems. So if you are a Mac or Vista user, please feel free to join us in #vistaqa or #macqa on irc.mozilla.org. If you are interested in joining our mailing lists that are specific to Vista and Mac, the lists are vistaqa@mozilla.org and macqa@mozilla.org . The Mac channel and mailing list covers all Mac testing, including the upcoming release of Leopard (but you don't have to have the Leopard pre-release to join).

To join the mailing lists, please visit https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/vistaqa or https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/macqa .

We look forward to seeing some new participants in the IRC channels and in the mailing lists!

Great news! Gran Paradiso Alpha 5 RC build has been released for testing!  Many new features have landed like:
