 I presumed that this meant all of our pass/fail test suites (not the

Thanks for the question Nicholas.  I do in fact me any time of testing, 
specifically testing that is done by our automation.  So as Benjamin pointed 
out xpcshell, mochitests, reftests.  It would also include the .cpp tests.

How do you run unit tests against Firefox?

2014-11-12 Thread jmaher
On the A*Team we do many projects to bring new platforms online or make sure 
our test harnesses work in new situations (like e10s).  We hear great ideas 
from folks we interact with (sometimes we make up our own ideas), but one thing 
we don't know is how people run unit tests and what type of workflow is normal.

To answer this we created a survey:
http://goo.gl/p45Iwo

As different teams have different workflows, we would really appreciate if you 
fill out the team you work on (or do the most work for) - that is question 1 of 
13 in the survey!

Now is your chance to ask for automated sandwich making!

What exactly do you mean by unit tests?

At first I thought you were just referring to C++ unit tests, i.e.
the ones that show up on Treeherder as Cpp. But the first page of
the survey says We care about tests which are also run on tbpl (e.g.
mochitests, reftest, xpcshell, marionette, etc.) so now I suspect you
are referring to all tests...

Clarification would be welcome, both here and on the survey itself. Thanks.

Nick
