Details
Soft Freeze / Merge Date: 2022-05-26 / 2022-05-30 (from the Release Management Calendar)
More details about any of those tasks can be found at: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools/release.html
Anytime during the release:
- ✅ outdated backward compatibility code removed (doc, searchfox)
- ✅ outdated telemetry probes removed (bz query)
- ✅ Remove old perf panel (Bug 1668219)
Close to the end of the release
- ✅ smoke test for remote debugging against version 101 (doc)
- ✅ smoke test for remote debugging against the same version (version 102) (same doc)
- ✅ check xpcshell debugging (doc)
WebDriver BiDi / Marionette:
- ✅ close to the end of release (~1 week), based on the list of bugs fixed during the release, update Marionette release notes on MDN for 101: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/101#webdriver_conformance_marionette.
- ✅ right after the release of Firefox 101, send a mail to the dev-webdriver mailing list.
Template suggestion for the WebDriver email (adjust wording if relevant):
Firefox 101 has just been released, containing updates for our WebDriver (BiDi, Marionette) support.
You can find all the details in the change log for web developers:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/101#webdriver_conformance_webdriver_bidi_marionette
See https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t8pR_lcTkjZjX1ddOf6tyvPY8dtE519Vlu8wXX58x_E for detailed explanations about Marionette tasks, or contact :whimboo / :jdescottes for help
Nice to have:
- ✅ Update MDN data for the Compatibility panel (follow devtools/shared/compatibility/README.md)
- [ ] Generate webidl-pure-allowlist.js and webidl-deprecated-list.js (doc)
