Barbara and Jim are OK with this regression because display rates are extremely low in both modes. Barbara, jimm, billm (2016-05-25)

Tests

All tests disabled for e10s must be triaged and:

  • reenabled (and fixed, if necessary)
  • or annotated that the test is irrelevant for e10s?
  • or deleted?

We want each test directory to be signed-off by the feature area's owner.

Accessibility

  • Accessibility (a11y) does not block the initial release of e10s because e10s will only be enabled for users not using a11y.

Add-ons

  • Add-on support does not block the initial release of e10s because e10s will only be enabled for users without add-ons.
