  • criteria
  • ownership
  • schedule

To help ensure the best possible release and long term maintenance of this feature.

Risk Analysis

Testing Strategy

Scope

If it's not listed above, it is currently out of scope.

Objectives

[1] tracking bug has no bugs hanging off of it

Testcases

Ad-hoc testing of Ad-intensive websites. In general news sites tent to be rich of Ads. Therefore the top news sites on Alexa are a great source for suitable websites.

[1] The top 500 news sites on the web

List of known sites using the Intersection Observer API:

• https://soundcloud.com/charts/top

• http://www.bbc.com/sport/all-sports

• http://money.cnn.com/2016/11/25/media/rogue-one-tickets/
• http://abc7news.com/pets/hillsborough-mountain-lion-goes-viral/1658809/

Possible test scenarios:

• Open a single news site. Wait till it is fully loaded to make sure all Ads are properly initialized. If there is content to scroll, scroll up and down a couple of times. Click on some articles to trigger a refresh.

• Open a multiple news sites in different tabs. Wait till every page is fully loaded to make sure all Ads are properly initialized. Switch between tabs from time too time. Close and open new tabs randomly. If there is content to scroll, scroll up and down a couple of times. Click on some articles to trigger a refresh.

• Repeat scenarios above but let the browser untouched for a longer period of time. Then proceed.

Environments

Full Testing will be performed using Nightly for Desktop builds on:

• Windows
• Mac OS X
• Linux

Full Testing will be performed using Nightly for Mobile builds on:

• Android

Channel dependent settings (configs) and environment setups

• In Nightly (and DevEd when available)- dom.IntersectionObserver.enabled needs to be set to "true" in about:config
• If any kind of Ad-blocker is installed/in use it needs to be uninstalled/disabled

Manual Testing Results

Ad-hoc testing around testcases and scenarios above in regular and private windows, in e10s and non-e10s windows and on normal and HiDPi displays.
