Similar to what QA did for previous Firefox feature testing prioritization
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Rn-F3Kg_1_VznIxxXkAGGL8mVMSAdamZZI4f1O2r8HA/edit?pli=1#gid=682799809>,
we would like to do the same for Fx68. In order to help with the
process, *please
submit your pi-request
<https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/PI/PI+Request> by March 29. *This is
needed to assure QA will be involved in your feature development work for
the 68 cycle.

As you are probably aware, starting with Fx68, the release process and
schedule are changing. Full description of changes can be found here
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/129IEYhx8wdBltgn3ErBEPSBrzsWyHobZsjruwlHhxfw/edit>.
By default, all PI requests are to be considered for testing in Beta cycle
only. Project teams can request if they need Nightly testing, which is now
optional.

Please note that the *feature technical documentation needs to be ready
before April 12*, so that QA has enough time to design the test plan.
Please make sure your documentation follows these guidelines: Feature
Technical Documentation Guidelines
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1h6F5A_PW4X-20zBmrftDtZwp0jdsl9oIyjaqGNFm8YQ/edit>.
For *features that require Nightly testing*, please provide documentation
as soon as possible. QA cannot start working on your feature without
documentation.



*Q: What happens after the deadline?*
A: After the deadline QA will come back with a prioritized list of work
that represents what we are committing to for the next cycle. We want to
ensure this list matches eng and product expectations.

*Q: What if I miss the deadline?*
A: We reserve the right to say that we can't pick up work for late requests
in the current cycle. You can still develop and execute your own test plan
or defer the work to the following cycle.

*Q: What about unknown or unexpected requests? What if there is a business
reason for a late request? What do we do with experiments and System
Add-ons?*
A: In order to remain flexible, we will keep some percentage of time open
for requests like these.

*Q: There's no way I'm going to remember to do this. *
A: Do it now! I'll also send out a reminder next week.

Thanks,
Tom
