I think this should be standard procedure for anyone working on platform. A push to try for a base set of builds (mac, linux, win, b2g ics) plus a good set of tests (usually for me it's mochitests) covers things. Once those mostly complete I can mark the bug with check-needed and walk away, tree drivers will handle the landing when inbound is open and green. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
