I'm happy to keep chromium building and testable in a public place, but upstream releases come about every week, and between patch integration, ARMHF architecture build failures, ARMHF build time, and #security review and re-build, often the next release has arrived. People are already screaming for updates days before QA could even begin to test. I value assurance of quality, but I can't wait for long on human testing. One thing I would like QA help with is automated tests. I've started some autopkgtest smoketest and build-time unit testing, but I'd like to have automated - simple performance test - UI translation test for languages that will be patched in from Launchpad soon (?!) - integration test with webapps patches and extension - learning what tests I didn't know to add to this list I would love some patches or guidance. lp:~chromium-team/chromium-browser/saucy-working http://www.chromium.org/developers/testing/browser-tests - chad
