Sure we're waiting on TB 3.0 to be finalized before SM 2.0 will be 
outed, but really!!

Daniel...
 
SeaMonkey 2 and Thunderbird 3 are essentially inexorably linked, like it or not.
 
Knowing at least the status of TBird 3 overall means also knowing more the 
status of SeaMonkey 2, even though a great many of us may prefer SM 2 to TB 3.

This linkage as also seen in SM messages will likely cease pretty fast, 
especially as SM's features and unique capabilities really shine through.

 Can you verify that we can test Thunderbird 3 without overwriting or losing 
 our existing TBird 2 access or installation, in case we need to revert back 
 to TBird 2 for some reason.
 
 We should know that answer beforehand.
 
 Thank you,

There is consisderable shared code between the two. Plus several SM 2.0
features/functions actually depend upon the TB code, so it's to
everyone's advantage to help testing both TB  SM 2. Note: I'd asked the
same previously some time ago :-)



Gee, NoOp, I would have thought there were few enough testing SMwe 
don't want them splitting their efforts, do we??

Testing Thunderbird 3.0b3 starting this Thursday July 9th 2009

2009-07-08 Thread Ludovic Hirlimann
To make sure that Thunderbird 3.0 b3 ships with the highest quality. To 
make sure that nightly users did not make any important regressions, the 
Quality assurance team of Thunderbird is organizing a Full Functional 
Test of the builds that will become beta 3 itself.


We will use Litmus[1] and bugzilla to track the testing. Litmus will be 
used to know what to test and how as it contains our testcase database. 
Results will be stored in both Litmus and Bugzilla. When a test fails 
please make sure to :


1) file a bug in bugzilla
2)mark the bugs blocking bug 502621 [3] which is our tracking bug for 
this testing effort.

3)reference that bug in litmus - when submitting results

 I Read the litmus documentation

 II download the builds from [5]

 III point your browser to the test-run for Thunderbird 3.0 b3 [2], log in

 i chose an area you would like to test

 ii execute a test - report the results

 iii if the test failed make sure to enter a bug in bugzilla and mark 
that bug blocking 502621



If you have any question point your browser here [4] and fire your 
question away - note that it might takes some time before you get the 
answer.
