1-Click Firefox functional testing with Mozmill-Crowd

Firefox 4, the next major version of Mozilla’s web browser, will include hundreds of new features and enhancements. A lot of those will happen in the background and will primarily not be visible at the front-end. A very good example for such a feature is the support for graphics hardware acceleration. It will drastically improve the rendering of pages, videos, or the Firefox UI itself. But noticeable it is only because it is that fast. Alongside those back-end features, also the Firefox UI has been vastly changed. Mainly you willContinue reading1-Click Firefox functional testing with Mozmill-Crowd

MozMill Crowd – The birth of global automated testing

Last Friday I had my presentation about the MozMill crowd extension. It was part of the breakout sessions during the Mozilla Summit 2010 in Whistler.

Results of the second Add-ons Manager testday

Last Friday, June the 11th, we had our second testday for exploratory testing the new Add-ons Manager. It was again well attended and we had a couple of fantastic discussions across its whole duration. If you weren’t able to attend but interested in details about the discussions, you can read through the chat transcription which lists any specific detail. Given our last testday end of April, I have continued my idea to see the testday covering more than only the PDT timezone. That means this time it has also beenContinue readingResults of the second Add-ons Manager testday

Jsbridge 3.5.6 and Mozrunner 2.4.3 available

Within the last two weeks we had to push two maintenance releases for jsbridge and mozrunner which now fix two major issues: Bug 570790: Due to a broken pyPI package of jsbridge the extension wasn’t working properly on all platforms. At least on Windows the files which have been accidentally added to the tar.gz file, caused an error when loading files from the components and chrome folder of the extension. We have removed all those instances to make sure the extension will work again. Bug 568839: Installing binary extensions withContinue readingJsbridge 3.5.6 and Mozrunner 2.4.3 available

Testday for creating Mozmill Tests for Add-ons

Mozmill is not only able to execute functional and unit tests against applications, which are build on top of the Gecko platform, but can also be used to run those type of tests against extensions. If you are an extension author and interested to see your extension tested in a daily fashion by our automated test-runs in the QA-lab, you should definitely join the testday on Friday, May 28th. We really want to encourage you to think about the implementation of automated functional tests for your own extension. And it’sContinue readingTestday for creating Mozmill Tests for Add-ons

New Firefox 3.7 branch for the mozmill-test repository

A couple of minutes ago I have branched the mozmill-test repository for our upcoming Firefox 3.7 work. With that addition we can start to update our tests on the default branch to make them compatible with current Developer Preview releases and Minefield builds. That means we have the following correlations now: default => Firefox 3.7 mozilla1.9.2 => Firefox 3.6.x mozilla1.9.1 => Firefox 3.5.x More details about branch handling for our Mozmill tests can be found on MDC. The Mozmill test repository is available under the following two locations: http://hg.mozilla.org/qa/mozmill-tests/ http://github.com/whimboo/mozmill-tests
