About

The Firefox UI tests are a collection of integration tests mainly for testing the user interface of Firefox. The tests and its harness are based on the Marionette testing framework, and enhances it for Firefox Desktop specific behavior, e.g. it adds a page object model aka Firefox-Puppeteer.

Team

This project is maintained by the Automation Crew, and the primary contact is Henrik Skupin.

Goals

The goal of this project is to increase the test coverage for new features in Firefox Desktop. Especially for those features which cannot be covered by any other existing test suite. To achieve that we will also have to continuously improve our harness and firefox-puppeteer page object model.

We want that test development will become as easy as writing manual tests. Therefore we only want to make use of synchronous test steps, and don't force the user to understand the DOM of the browsers interface.

Dependencies / Who will use this

For every feature enhancement which cannot be directly done in our own harness, we have to work together with the developers for Marionette.

The users will be:

• Firefox QE
