MozQA is holding a Security Testday for Firefox 3.5! Security is something Mozilla takes very seriously. We have recently updated our security test cases and added some new ones for Firefox 3.5. Our community representatives will be available through IRC Chat ( channel #testday on irc://irc.mozilla.org ), QMO forums as well as the dev-quality newsgroup to help with any of your questions/comments/suggestions.

How do I get ready?

Note: Please familiarize yourself with our Test Guide to prepare for the test day.

1. Download Firefox 3.5!

Or, if you want to download the build externally, go ahead and get it from our nightly build ftp server

2. Go to Litmus

3. Login in (you'll need to register if you don't have a login)

4. Run the "Firefox 3.5 Catch-all Test Run"

5. Select your platform and operating system then click Submit

6. Start testing the Security FFTs!

This is what we're doing...

Mozilla QA needs your help with the Firefox 3.5 Security Test Day!
You can help us out by going to Litmus and running the set of Security FFTs against Firefox 3.5. If you have any issues with test cases themselves, be sure to comment on the test result. If you find any bugs, file them in Bugzilla and add the bug number to the test result.
NOTE: If you do end up filing a bug, please type "[securitytestday]" into the whiteboard field of the bug.
