Over the last weekend I had the pleasure to participate in the Free and Open source Software Developers’ European Meeting – aka FOSDEM – in Brussels, which is an annual conference for open source projects and their enthusiastic communities.

Yesterday we had to release Mozmill Crowd 0.1.5 due to changes in our reporting infrastructure. Given the fallout of one of our servers our Mozmill Dashboard is now located at http://mozmill-crowd.blargon7.com/. This move needed an update of the default report URL. Now you can send reports of your test results again. We have to admit [...]
The final bits of Mozmill 1.5.8 are now available through Pypi. Install or upgrade Mozmill by running: pip install –upgrade mozmill==1.5.8 We had to release this version to fix a recent regression which has been identified in Mozmill 1.5.7, and which caused a hard-stop when an user restart has been requested. The issue did only [...]
It’s the first time for us that we release two new versions of Mozmill in such a short interval. While this release is a bug fix release, it will add support for an upcoming feature in Firefox Nightly builds, which will probably checked-in today and be available in tomorrows builds. If you wonder what I’m [...]
Lately we have released Mozmill 1.5.5. It’s a bug fix release only and we had to release it as fast as possible, because of a broken waitForPageLoaded() method. Also the structure of the JSON report was broken if a module import from within a Mozmill test raised a global exception. A list of fixes can [...]

In this version the only changes which affect the extension itself are additions for the Endurance test-run, which allow users to specify the number of entities and if Firefox has to be restarted in-between each test. We also [...]
On Friday Mozmill 1.5.4 has been finally released, including a lot of bug fixes and a couple of new features. This time it has been taken a bit longer as usual to get the release out, but the A-team is also working kinda hard on the Mozmill 2 code, where we expect a preview release [...]
As part of the discussions during our QA Automation Services work week end of July, we have decided to be more open to the public. We have seen that in the past mostly all conversations regarding tools, tasks, and status updates happened on our internal mailing list, which is not accessible by any of our [...]

For a long time, exactly since January 29th in 2010, the Mozilla QA team is running daily Mozmill tests to prove the functionality of Firefox and the update system across all supported platforms and release branches. With those tests we were able to find a couple of regressions, which then were fixed before the next [...]

QA Automation Services is happy to announce that Mozmill Crowd 0.1.3 has been released. With this minor release Mozmill Crowd now got its own branding for the extension itself, and on AMO. Thanks goes to Tara Shahian and her team for their support in creating the icon. We think it looks brilliant. What do you [...]
