We're changing our architecture currently, it's documented through links on here : https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gaia/New-Architecture-Program
I can't speak much on anything else but Software Quality. We have various levels of automation testing that's documented here : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/QA/Automated_testing We also do manual exploratory/session-based testing on new features/bugs that land to verify and find new bugs. This finds a good number of our bugs faster than running through a regression test suite manually. It also reduces the cost of maintenance work on areas for automation if a feature is still evolving. In order to help map out exploratory testing, sometimes we create state diagrams based on ui/blackbox or what UX calls IA ( http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Information_architecture ). Sometimes instead we create a matrix of what needs to be tested, etc. I personally prefer to test in a MVC model manner so that we isolate if it's a data, function or view issue. We have our automation to do manual regression checking and we have manual testers who also double check in case we miss something in our manual testing. We are in the process of ramping up our automation. One of the interesting other projects not mentioned in automation is the image compare automation. it's in jenkins for arabic/french/italian for the settings app. This will be expanded later. We are also exploring the idea with property base testing: ( http://www.scalatest.org/user_guide/property_based_testing ) In terms of metrics: there's an automation for performance and also a mean time between failure. Currently we do not have any code coverage tool that will help us out over all. Adding more tests does not necessarily mean more coverage. We need a way to verify the code is covered correctly to help verify the validity of the automated tests. I believe this is also being investigated.
