[[QAhttps:/TDAI/Gristmill|Gristmilldeveloper.mozilla.org/en/Thunderbird/Thunderbird_Automated_Testing MozMill]] is a tool to use for UI automation in any mozilla platform developed application. It can provide Thunderbird with the capability to quickly repeat tests in a consistent manner, being another aid to avoid faults creeping into the application with the constant development.
Gristmill MozMill is still being developed, however the basic concepts are there and it is possible to run tests manually, see [http://ccgi.standard8.plus.com/blog/archives/36 this link] for an example within Thunderbird.
The Gristmill MozMill scripts are written in Javascript, there is a some [[QAhttps:/TDAI/Gristmilldeveloper.mozilla.org/Mozmill Tutorial|tutorial]en/Mozmill_Tests documentation] available and it should be noted that you do not need an in-depth knowledge of Thunderbird's internals. Gristmill is still new, and we'd be interested in getting some basic scripts together and setting up some kind of testing architecture. If you're interested, please contact [[User:Standard8]] direct. We are currently putting together a more detailed, [[MailNews:Automation_With_Gristmill|MailNews specific page for Gristmill]].
