Testing

If you are interested in helping us test, that's great! Use the link below under 'Resources' to download the current release.

Currently, the test cases that are available for testing are Basic Functional Tests in the HTML, CSS and XML layout and rendering areas. Basic Functional Tests verify that the application is functional at a basic level. They are used to touch the product at a high level. If these tests pass, then lower level test types are run. These lower-level tests are called Functional Tests. Functional Tests for HTML, CSS and XML layout and rendering will be available soon. Tests in other areas mentioned above are in development and will be available at a future date.

During the testing process, the following questions might come up:
      What if I find an error in a test case?
    • Please email us to let us know about it. Include the test case name and describe in detail what the error is. The problem will be corrected as quickly as possible.


    • What if I find a bug as a result of running a test case?
    • First, you need to read the Bug Writing Guidelines to familiarize yourself with the bug process.
    • Next, you will need to create a Bugzilla account in order to post new bugs or update existing bugs. Go to the Bugzilla page and click on 'Open a new Bugzilla account'. Follow the instructions for creating an account.
    • Finally, you will post a new bug or update an existing bug according to the previously mentioned Bug Writing Guidelines.
