the following things to do:
* This testday has the focus on Firefox Places (Bookmark and
History) and
we have special tests in Litmus for this Areas. Ask for help in the
testday channel if you're not familiar with Litmus. If a testcase is
terribly unclear, mark it as such. When you have questions about using
Litmus, please ask the moderators in the testday channel or see
the Litmus tutorial .
* You can find more information about changes and bugs to verify on
the testplan for Places . If you see an issue, raise it in #testday so
