33571 - Make text-like documents of testing procedures.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Webtools Graveyard :: Litmus, defect, P3)

Description

[Chuck R.]

[e-mail] asked me to make a bug for this. 

I would like the testing procedures as an MS Word document so I can print them 
out and check off each item as I test it. I think one Word document for each 
Mozilla component would be good. So, one document for the Browser testing, one 
for Mail/news testing, one for editor testing, one for calendar testing, etc.

Thank you.

is Word really a good answer here?

Why word? Couldn't we just use a text document. By testing procedures, 
do you mean just the smoketests or ALL the tests? This shouldn't be to 
hard to do.

This would be a good feature idea for testmanager. thx for the idea!

If someone still cares about this bug, it's probably zach. 
Reassigning to zach. Can you have a look and decide what to do with it?
Moving from Miscellaneous to [e-mail] component for now (trying to
clean up the former a bit).

This is really a testmanager bug. Sending over there. Also, calling this 
'text-like' since word is not the right answer here.

Can we use XHTML for this? CSS? After the page renders it can be printed to obtain a nice looking hard-copy. Can you force pagebreaks in CSS for media: print?

This bug sounds like it might still have some utility. Is anyone still clamoring for this, or can I close this?

I think this has been covered now by the Print Testcases functionality in View Tests.
