The document summarizes API and compatibility testing performed for a social media app's integration with Facebook. Testing was required due to the client lacking an in-house QA team. The solution involved implementing a test repository using a "Business Matrix Model" approach to test functionality across platforms, browsers, and Facebook APIs. Regular reporting of defects helped prioritize developer efforts and ensure the build was stable before customer rollout.
