You don't need too. Just install a resizer. On chrome I'm using

I don't follow you here. What's the relationship between the resolution that 
the xwiki dev team supports and users testing XWiki? They can test on whatever 
resolution they want...

This plan needs to mention on what resolutions (plural) it was tested, in 
addition to mentioning browsers and databases on which it was executed. You 
don't need to test on all resolutions obviously but the plan needs to have 
various tests on different DBs, OSes, Browsers, Resolutions. You should propose 
something.
