On-demand Testing
- Project significantly expanded (maybe even re-oriented) for Q4 goal.
- Are in the requirements-gathering stage of the Q4 project.
- Currently investigating use of Jenkins and similar tools, as well as understanding whether we can fulfill both CI and on-demand goals through same/overlapping systems.
Others
- Pre-configured Mozmill Environment
- Investigation and documentation for requirements can be found on the wiki page.
- It's not that easy to transplant from the Add-ons SDK because it already requires Python to be installed. But further experimentation already solved the problem on OS X with xtools. On Windows the py2exe tool should help.
Selenium
- Grid
- Mobile
Other
- E.g. JMeter
