What is this?

How does this work?

WTFFFFF is a Flash Quality Assurance Platform. It has been created to streamline the bug-finding processes associated with developing cross-platform, cross-browser Flash applications.

A major difficulty with general QA and bug finding is managing to create a productive dialogue between testers and developers. Often times, when an error is encountered, the means or method of reproducing the error is not communicated effectively to the party who can provide a solution. This results in vague descriptions, frustration and ultimatly, slow development that lingers well into the night as programmers struggle to find the cause.

WTFFFFF works to simplifiy these lines of communication by providing automated diagnostic and report modules that feed system specific information back to developers with the goal of more efficient bug finding and fixing.

WTFFFFF is a client-side application. No data is stored or logged by the server, making WTFFFFF safe for non-public projects.

WTFFFFF operates in three segments:

DEVELOPER LANDING PAGE

This is where you are now. To create a new QA Diagnostic Link, fill out the form and select the appropriate Modules - then press GENERATE LINK. Reports can be sent to multiple Emails if the addresses are separated by a comma. Make sure the URL TO TEST links to a page that contains the SWFs in question. Once a new link has been generated, it can be sent to as many testers as required.

CLIENT LANDING PAGE

When a client or tester follows the newly generated link, they will be sent here. The client landing exists to disarm the concerns of lay-users and prepare them with a brief description of WTFFFFF's purpose and utility. It includes a link to launch the diagnostic.

DIAGNOSTIC UTILITY POP-UP

When a user initiates the test, the diagnostic modules will appear in a Pop-Up above the content being tested - which will load in to replace the Client Landing Page. Users will need to wait for any mandatory diagnostics to complete before interacting with the site or ad. When an error is encountered or testing is complete, users can provide brief written feedback and submit the automatically generated report back to the appropriate developer.
