Draft desktop validation test matrix

[He Rui]

Hi Adam,

Nice matrix!

I have a question. Is release level 'Alpha', 'Beta', 'Final' the same as
priority 'tier1', 'tier2', 'tier3'? For example, if Beta Candidate is
under testing, will the cases of Alpha release level be tested again? 

If all the cases should be tested on Final candidate, and many people
attend the tests, then both the installation and this desktop matrix
would be long. Then I prefer a separate page. 


Thanks,
He Rui
