[ | A new mach bootstrap environment is created specifically for running in the context of a tests.zip. This will allow us to write mach commands that will get packaged as part of the package-tests make target. Developers downloading tests.zip (or packaging it from a local build) can now run |mach help| to perform test package related tasks (most likely running tests). | ||
Currently only the mochitest mach command has been implemented, but other harnesses may follow suit shortly depending on resources and demand. Because there is no |mozbuild| module to work with, the mach command cannot automatically detect the firefox binary, it must be passed in via --appname. For the same reason, the mach command cannot resolve tests and automatically detect which flavors and subsuites exist in a particular directory like the in-tree version of the script does. Usage: | |||
mach mochitest --appname path/to/firefox [path/to/test/dir] | |||
