898367 - [User Story] Start/Stop Stop Watch

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Clock, defect)

Description

[Peter Dolanjski [:pdol]]

User Story:

As a user I want to be able to start a stop watch and stop it at any point so that I can time an event.


Acceptance Criteria:

1. I can start the stop watch causing the elapsed time to visibly increment until it is stopped.
2. I can stop the stop watch after it has been started causing the elapsed time to stop incrementing until it is reset or restarted.

Accidental nom.  Not a blocking feature.

I have not seen the wireframes for the stopwatch, and perhaps they answer my question, but I think we should get some clarity on the localization needs for a stopwatch.

Do digital stopwatches use the normal time display format of the locale, or are colons a universal hh:mm:ss separator for this application?

Setting needinfo on Axel.

Axel: the same question applies to the countdown timer feature, which is in bug 898353 et. al. Are countdown timers localized like times, or are they non-localized?

CCing [e-mail] to have some feedback directly from localizers.

Even if it's overdoing, I would probably leave the separator localizable inside the app.
