Deep Dives

Mobile (1st/2nd Monday)

Autophone

Minor improvements to http://phonedash.mozilla.org UI

• older devices without any results in the requested date range no longer show up in the device list.

• the device list is now scrollable to allow the selection/deselection of devices without having to scroll the graph out of view.

• urls with remembered checkbox settings no longer cause a hang when loaded.

• the initial load performance has been improved so that it is usable.

Results

gbrown filed bug 1018463 for a small regression in Local throbber stop measurements on 2014-05-11.

• Local Blank Throbber Stop May 11

• Local Twitter Throbber Stop May 11

The Cache 2 improvements

Cache 2 bug 913806 showed significantly improved Throbber stop times for first visits for Remote tests on slower devices. The difference was not significant for faster devices or for Local tests. Cache 2 also improved the variability of the Remote test results.

• Remote Blank Throbber Stop May 15-16

• Remote Twitter Throbber Stop May 15-16

Mountain View move

Autophone will be moved to the Mountain View QA lab this week. Autophone will be down starting Tuesday June 3. We hope to have it back up and running some time Friday.

The droid pro and nexus one devices will no longer be used due to reliability issues. The current devices under test are:

• Nexus S
• Nexus 4
• Nexus 5
• Nexus 7 (2012)
• Nexus 7 (2013)

Remote tests and Unit Test automation will be offline until we can reliably use ethernet over adb. See network proxy for tunneling http traffic over adb bug 1003470.
