Ad-hoc<br \/>\ntesting is testing where you attempt to use the product like a &#8220;normal<br \/>\nuser&#8221; to find any issues that crop up along the way. You also try to<br \/>\nmake the program break by doing unexpected things, just do anything you<br \/>\ncan imagine &#8211; mix up events, emails, tasks, calendar types etc. When you<br \/>\nfind something, take a look at the Error Console (especially before<br \/>\nsubmitting a bug report), since there is usually very valuable<br \/>\ninformation there that points to the cause of the bug.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs usual there are also some fixed bugs that need to be <a href=\"http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/3ay9qs\">verified<\/a>.<br \/>\nYou simply add a comment to the bug report stating what product, version<br \/>\nand operating system you used while verifying the bug fixed.<\/p>\n<p>\nJoin us in #calendar-qa on Thursday. All the information on the test day<br \/>\nis on our usual <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/Calendar:Current_QA_TestDay\">Test Day Wiki Page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\nHappy Testing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our next test day will be on Thursday, February 7th.
