481239 - Deploy new all.html tests

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

All the QA bugs are fixed so I think we're ready to go here.  These changes are intertwined with the 3.0.7 changes going live on Weds. so let's plan on doing this push then.

Say something here if that's a problem.  Since Seth is the lead now, I'm CCing him for approval.  Once the pages are live we can file a bug for IT to set up the redirects.

Please push live on Wednesday.  And, then file the bug for IT redirect.

Wil, thanks for pushing this to completion.

Ready to go. Let's go live!

This is on https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

The page changes it's content (note: does not redirect) every 15 minutes.  all-1 should start showing in 10 minutes.

I'm looking for another a=stephend before pushing since this is the first time we've integrated the rotation code.

The patch that is currently on staging uses rewrites instead of redirects.  Is that what is wanted or will that affect the outcome of the test negatively?

Comment 7

[Laura Mesa [:lmesa] [:lvmesa]]

Jeremy:  Is this okay?  Ken and I are not sure what this means...

Comment 8

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

Rewrites means that people will visit /en-US/firefox/all.html and see different content every 15 minutes.

Redirects would mean that people would visit /en-US/firefox/all.html and be forwarded to one of the other all-X.html pages every 15 minutes.

It's the difference between them seeing all-X.html in the URL or just all.html with different content.  I'm asking because I don't know how you're monitoring the statistics and if people need to be forwarded to all-X or just see the content.

I think rewrites should work, but oremj is the only person who will be 100% sure of how the content rotation maps to our web analytics reporting.  Copying Jeremy...

Comment 10

[Jeremy Orem [:oremj]]

As far as  analytics either works.  We would get page name data if we did redirects, but I'm not sure that is important.

a=stephend, in light of comment 10.

Pushed in r23138.  Might be some hiccups while mozilla-expanders.js expires out of the netscaler.  Let me know if anything is missing.

It might just have been the few times I've checked it, but http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html is still the old, non-rotating page, for me.

[Laura Mesa [:lmesa] [:lvmesa]]

For me too.  Steven or Wil: Can you fix this?

Looks like bug 482807.

Comment 17

Wil: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html looks fine (rotating through its variants); would you please mark this fixed?

Verified; it's deployed.  We're still figuring out bug 475597 separately.
