== An Introduction ==

'''Background history'''

"''The purpose of private browsing is to put Firefox into a temporary state where no information about the user's browsing session is stored locally. Firefox currently handles the user's privacy with a feature in preferences to clear all private data. This feature forces the user to choose between having privacy (even if only momentary), and other useful features like browsing history, and saved passwords. Users should be able to go "off the record", they shouldn't have to shoot the reporter.'' "'' [https://wiki.mozilla.org/PrivateBrowsing#Introduction wiki.mozilla.org/PrivateBrowsing]''

== The Project Offered ==
The new Private Browsing feature (see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248970 bug 248970] and the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Ehsan/PrivateBrowsingTests test plan]) needs thorough tests written in order to insure its proper functionality.  This will involve collaborating with those writing the patch and tests in order to develop a full suite of tests.

'''E-Mail Conversations with Ehsan (Example)'''
http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~amtrain/other/email.jpg

==== What I learned? ====
* September / October
** Mozilla Tree - Structural Layout 
** Unit Testing - How to write a unit test
** Private Browsing - Functionality, features and usage 
** XPCShell - When it's used, how it's used, why it's used
** Blocker/Dependancy Bugs - 
** Patches - How to apply the following patches: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248970 #248970], [https://bugzilla.mozilla.orgshow_bug.cgi?id=457110 #457110], and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458954 #458954].
** Building - Clean builds with fresh applied patches

** Philosophical Question + New Bug -  [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454792 Bug 454792 -  Should safebrowsing code react to private browsing mode?] - very interesting 
==== Community Interaction ====
*'''(1) Primarily''': http://developer.mozilla.org/En
*'''(2) Secondary''': Tremendous aid, assitance and conversations with [http://ehsanakhgari.org/ Ehsan Akhgari]
*'''(3) Thirdly''': IRC #seneca #ext #mozdev #places

1. Whenever I ran into trouble, I confronted the Mozilla Developer Centre. Majority of the time my answers were addressed there to questions raised. When I could not find an answer to a specific issue, I contacted '''(2)''' Ehsan.

2. Ehsan, very kindly without hesitance provided me with the support I needed in jumping into the unfamiliar world of Mozilla. During the first milestone phase we discussed many topics such as: private browsing, patches, places, session store, unit testing, XPCShell testing, chrome browser testing.

3. Of course the friendly help of peers and professors and other Mozilla developers derived from channels on ''irc.Mozilla.org, IRC''.

'''My tests have landed into the mozilla cross reference and are included in the trunk ready for Firefox 3.1!'''
[[Image:Ss_landing.jpg]]

'''E-Mail appraisal from Ehsan (Example)'''
http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~amtrain/other/email2.jpg

==== What I learned? ====
* October / November
** More on Private Browsing - Functionality, features and usage, specifically session store, downloader manager, memory hashtables
** Chrome Browser Tests - Similarities and differences between these forms of tests and XPCSHell unit tests
** Writing Browser Tests using sample HTML files, manipulating session store data across entry and exit of private browsing mode
** Other, multitude of other associated bugs related to [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248970 #248970]

With the completion of milestone 0.2, the deadline for Private Browsing testing has expired! Private Browsing has landed into Firefox 3.1!

Next milestone release will shift focus into a separate area.


==== Community Interaction ====

Unlike in Milestone 0.1, this time around I primarily interacted through #developers and through conversation in email.

*'''(1) Primarily''': Tremendous aid, assitance and conversations with [http://ehsanakhgari.org/ Ehsan Akhgari]
*'''(2) Secondary''': IRC #seneca #ext #mozdev #places

=== Milestone 0.3 (Audio / Video HTML5 Unit Tests) ===

== Quick Project Notes ==
* nsiSessionStore -> [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/nsISessionStore nsiSessionStore Doc]
* File/IO Session Store (sessionstore.js)
** http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Code_snippets/File_I%2f%2fO#Getting_special_files

* To run browser chrome tests:
**<pre>/obj-i686-pc-linux-gnu/_tests/testing/mochitest$ python runtests.py --browser-chrome</pre>
* To work on the session store area, I believe I'll need to work with [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Browser_chrome_tests browser chrome tests]
* Session Store unit-tests are stored in 
<pre>/browser/components/sessionstore/test/browser/</pre>
* Places unit-tests are stored in 
<pre>toolkit/components/places/tests/unit</pre>
* To run a single unit-test use '''check-one SOLO_FILE'''
** Example
<pre>make SOLO_FILE=test_bug248970.js -C objdir/netwerk/test check-one</pre>

'''Area's where you could contribute to my project'''

* '''(A)''' You <u>have</u> written an extension before
** Testing is needed on the private browsing service. If you have written an extension in the past or are going to, it would sweet if you also test the new API [https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Ehsan/PrivateBrowsingForExtensions found here] - Let me know if API calls are working, nothing fancy has to be done, just has to work properly. Send me feedback and I can pass this on back to Mozilla Devs.

* '''(B)''' You have <u>not</u> written an extension before
** It would be very helpful if you could test out the new private browsing feature, specifically testing out the history component of it.

Should you select '''(B)'''
* Make sure you have an updated trunk build of Mozilla Firefox.
* Download the newest patch off [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248970 Bug #248970] which would make you manly, '''or''' download the latest try server build [https://build.mozilla.org/tryserver-builds/2008-10-19_15:07-ehsan.akhgari@gmail.com-try-8ddf45ad32c/ right here ]
* Install the patch, ''refer to week 4 lab''.
* Build Firefox.
* Open Firefox. 
* '''Follow this test plan or the following test plan''':
** Test Plan - Places (History / Bookmarks)
*** Visit a bunch of websites, ranging from anything in particular.
*** Create a bookmark from one of the sites.
*** Enter private browsing mode '''Tools -> Private Browsing Mode''' with a new session.
*** Open your history and visit the same sites, the visit count should not increase (this is visible in History -> Show All History, add the new column).
*** Check if your bookmark has been visited, it should not.
*** Visit new web sites, they should not be added to your history list.
*** Add a bookmark from a new website.
*** Exit private browsing mode.
*** Both bookmarks should still be accessible.
*** Visit the sites in your history again, the visit count should now increase (History -> Show All History).
** Test Plan - Session Store (Tabs)
*** Clear all Private Data (Ctrl-Shit-Del) including cookies and offline website data
*** Open a new tab and visit a website - (Tab A)
*** Close (Tab A)
*** Verify that (Tab A) is listed in '''History -> Recently Closed Tabs'''
*** Enter private browsing mode '''Tools -> Private Browsing Mode''' with the same session.
*** Open a new tab and visit a website - (Tab B)
*** Open a new tab and visit a website - (Tab C)
*** Close (Tab B).
*** Verify that (Tab B) is listed in '''History -> Recently Closed Tabs'''
*** Close (Tab C).
*** Verify that (Tab C) is listed in '''History -> Recently Closed Tabs'''
*** Exit Private Browsing Mode
*** Verify that (Tab A) is '''only''' listed in '''History -> Recently Closed Tabs'''
* If everything follows according to plan, let me know and I can add your name as a contributor.
* If there is a problem let me know, I will add your name as a contributor and forward the problem to the '''Bug #248970'''.
