In this post you can find an overview about the work happened in the Firefox Automation team during week 19 and 20. Highlights When we noticed that our Mozmill-CI production instance is quickly filling up the /data partition, and having nearly no space left to actually run Jenkins, Henrik did a quick check, and has seen that the problem were the update jobs. Instead of producing log files with about 7MB in size, files with more than 100MB each were present. Inspecting those files revealed that the problem were allContinue readingFirefox Automation report – week 19/20 2014

So during a restart of Firefox, Mozmill wasn’t waiting long enough to detect that the old process is gone, so a new instance has been started immediately. Sadly that process failed with the profile already in use error.Continue readingFirefox Automation report – week 7/8 2014

Are you still proud and will you continue the work as how you did it before? Most likely not. Or well, lets say at least not when quality is what you want to ship.Continue readingJoin our first Automation Training days on March 24/26
