Firefox Automation report – week 9/10 2014

In this post you can find an overview about the work happened in the Firefox Automation team during week 9 and 10. I for myself was a week on vacation. A bit of relaxing before the work on the TPS test framework should get started.

Highlights

In preparation to run Mozmill tests for Firefox Metro in our Mozmill-CI system, Andreea has started to get support for Metro builds and appropriate tests included.

With the help from Henrik we got Mozmill 2.0.6 released. It contains a helpful fix for waitForPageLoad(), which let you know about the page being loaded and its status in case of a failure. This might help us to nail down the intermittent failures when loading remote and even local pages. But the most important part of this release is indeed the support of mozcrash. Even that we cannot have a full support yet due to missing symbol files for daily builds on ftp.mozilla.org, we can at least show that a crash was happening during a testrun, and let the user know about the local minidump files.
