Well, the part that requires cygwin is the script to invoke firefox. By running bash in os x, you get around the cygwin requirement. Clever and also disturbing.

Well, I ran it.

Bizarrely, it launched Firefox in Parallels, and ran all the browser tests there.

It passed.  So, I think we are ok.

[But, it sure is amusing that you can't run the tests because you are on Windows and when I run the tests they run in Windows, even though I am on a Mac!]

Hi Ben,

It's not such a massive change. I can't run runlzunit because my development platform is native Windows. Perhaps you can give it a whack.

Thanks!

Wow. Massive.

Phil, I see you're the QA reviewer. Can you please run "ant runlzunit" before checking it in? (That does lztest plus runs a lot of lzunit tests in the browser in both runtimes.)

Once this is checked in, I think the interactive demos should be given a once-over by QA; this change touches so much code that it is more likely to contain problems, despite the impeccable quality of Tucker's code.
