   B2G (Geo/jhammink) 

   Stability (nhirata)

   see platform meeting notes

   note: testing has been conducted this week, testing releng's builds.

   symbols are still missing, but they are sending to socorro

   browser crashes are not being reported, need further investigations

   ADU still needs to be done

   Script to help with unattended triage of mochitests mostly finished: http://people.mozilla.com/~gmealer/triage-mochi.bash

   Have already triaged /caps, /docshell, /content, found many candidates. Will be adding passing results to TBPL run

   Processing /dom with this script this week. There's gold in them thar hills.

   Gave a first shot at modifying B2G mochitest framework to centrally set test permissions. Loading method did not work; taking second shot this week. 

   Update: working solution posted by dclarke to bugzilla! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=814140

   Still overseeing reviews of testcases (as done by Qanalysts) in moztrap.  Task List and status here: http://bit.ly/U4qoCh

   Some new test areas landing as UCs (Sound, Apps Permission, etc) so need to co-ordinate that testcase writing with SV/QA

   More SUMO/Feedback work

   More UXBranch verifications

   Apps (Jason) 

   App Install feature set is feature complete - finally finalizing the test cases for it

   App Errors test plan update is in progress

   Packaged apps is still broken - which is blocking a lot of testing

   B2G/Gaia testing: 

   A couple of new tests but primary focus upon reliability

   specifically, ensuring that all tests running are passing (always a goal, but previously, we balanced it with growing coverage)

   shifting to Panda boards

   tests now specify whether they use wi-fi, SIM, carrier, etc. so we can target environments differently (Unagi vs. Panda)

   estimating and looking into testing updates:

   https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/issues/22

   We have found several bugs already this week from the testing in Contacts, Music app, Camera app  (these bugs often also found by the manual testing team)

   Work left to "finish" the smoketests:
